Abstract
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Patent Claims: The major function of the patent claim or independent patent claims is to clearly define the scope of protection granted.

Detailed explanation-2: -Only the patent claims define the scope of protection granted by a patent. The rest of the patent specification only helps explain the invention in detail.

Detailed explanation-3: -As to what your “invention” is exactly, that is defined by the patent claims. The claims define the “scope” of the invention-essentially the boundary of the patent owner’s right to exclude anything or anyone falling within the scope of the claims.

Detailed explanation-4: -Claims are the heart of a patent application. Whereas the description of the invention contained in a patent document teaches how to make and use the invention, the claims define the scope of legal protection.
