Each of the above internal nodes is mandatory, and is a logical grouping of information fields. Each node has a corresponding table created with more or less the same fields as the XML elements.
Corresponding tables are:
assignment-records : assignment
patent-assignors : assignors
patent-assignees : assignees
patent-properties : properties
Additionally, for each file that is downloaded, there are some associated specs. All of these are stored in the PatentAssignment table.
