es gibt keinen einzigen englischen Begriff....


Explanation:
It can be "according to the present invention", "in the present invention", "under the present invention", "which is the subject of the present invention", whatever fits in grammatically. It is a good idea to include the word "present", to make sure there is no ambiguity as to which invention is being referred to (some patent applications refer to previously patented inventions, if only to show why the new one is different and/or better).

In the present invention, ... are produced....

The regulator used in the present invention....

etc.

Better perhaps: The regulator which forms part of the present invention....

agree  Maureen Holm, J.D., LL.M.: Even, 'in/with this invention'
1 hr
  -> That's OK too, although I find myself using "the present invention" a lot, just for clarity.

agree  gangels (X): or...foregoing invention. 'Unique' and 'novel' are also liberally used in these instances
1 hr
  -> It all depends: even "novel in/about this invention..."
