Law/Patents - Patents
German term or phrase: beanspruchen
In a text relating to patents:

"Gemeinschaftspatente" sind (i) die in Anlage 12 genannten Patente und (ii) Patente, die während der Laufzeit dieses Vertrages angemeldet werden und XXX-Entwicklungsergebnisse und YYY-Entwicklungsergebnisse beanspruchen.

and later also

ein ausschließliches Recht an dem den Parteien zustehenden Anteil an den XXX-Entwicklungsergebnissen, die nicht Gegenstand der Lizenz gemäß Ziffer 1.2 sind, und an den XXX-Patenten, die diese XXX-Entwicklungsergebnisse beanspruchen;

I suspect that in this context, it means something along the lines of "relate to", but would "lay claim to" the development results work better here?

Thanks
