The invention relates to a big data patent management system based on an Apriori data mining algorithm. The big data patent management system comprises a patent management module, a patent pre-warning module, a controller module and a cloud server platform, wherein the patent management module comprises a patent application module, a patent notice management module and a patient client module; the patent pre-warning module comprises a patent retrieval module, a data mining module and a pre-warning warning module; the cloud server platform is used for managing the patent management module, the patent pre-warning module and the controller module in centralized and unified manners. According to the big data patent management system, the big data cloud management function of patent application can be realized, and the manual operation is not required; and the big data patent management system has the advantages that the formats of patient documents are automatically examined, notices in a patent examination stage are automatically received, state information of the patients is automatically inquired, existing patient techniques are automatically indexed and can be sufficiently indexed, the patent infringement risk is avoided, the patent information is automatically downloaded and transmitted, the operation is simple and convenient, the working efficiency is high, and the like.
