Here is a breakdown of what generally falls outside the realm of inventions that can be patented:
In addition, you cannot, in general, get a patent if you change a superior material for inferior, change in size, form, or shape, make mere adjustability, do diminution of parts, make omission of parts, use of old art for another purpose or do mere aggregation
