General

Use is any action that has an adequate causal connection with the purpose of an object . This includes both the one-time and the constant use of things. The question of the general use of an object depends primarily on its practical significance for the conduct of life and general activity. A commodity is accordingly any movable thing that can be used to bring about an economic or technical benefit . This means that it is not possible to make a certain distinction between equipment and objects of use. It is a spatially or technically uniform structure, the parts of which are physically or technically-functional.

Most of the less valuable everyday objects are non-seizable objects .

In patent law, the commodity is an object "which has an internal utility function that does not only consist of depicting the external appearance of the object or conveying information."

species

In addition to movable property , the subject matter of a transfer of use contract can also be rights ( property rights ) or money .
