Patents protect the features and processes that make things work. This lets you profit from anything you have invented. It protects new inventions and covers how things work, what they do, how they do it, what they are made of and how they are made. It gives you the owner the right to prevent others from making, using, importing or selling the creation/invention without permission.
You have to make sure that your invention is a new creation and not something which has been made before, otherwise they can do all of the things I listed above because it hasn't got a patent to protect it. If you want to then you can let others use your patent by granting them a licence. You may want to involve others to help display, develop or market your patent. By having a patant it basically just gives you the oppurtunity to build something up and get something displayed without other people being able to take it or do anything to it at all.
