of 50,000 tracked assignees
USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 24 granted patents across 15 technology areas, recorded in grant years 2017–2025. Grant-trend analysis is cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search; it does not measure application filings, current R&D, or legal strength. Primary class: H02M (APPARATUS FOR CONVERSION BETWEEN AC AND AC, BETWEEN AC AND DC, OR BETWEEN DC AND DC, AND FOR USE WITH MAINS OR SIMILAR POWER SUPPLY SYSTEMS; CONVERSION OF DC OR AC INPUT POWER INTO SURGE OUTPUT POWER;).
The verdict
According to USPTO PatentsView, Actron ranks #12,330 of 50,000 tracked US assignees by granted-patent volume, with 24 patents across 15 technology areas.

What this shows Actron Technology Corporation stamps GRANTS-SMALL, UPPER-Q, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-FOCUS, INNOV-THIN, CLAIMS-PAR, TYPE-FRNCORP, VEL-SURGE, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #12,330 of 50,000; Innovation Score 35.3/100 sits in the top 50% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is ACP Japan Co., Ltd. (±0 grants).
Actron Technology Corporation has been granted 24 US utility patents between 2017 and 2025, placing Actron Technology Corporation at #12,330 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 15 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in H02M (APPARATUS FOR CONVERSION BETWEEN AC AND AC, BETWEEN AC AND DC, OR BETWEEN DC AND DC, AND FOR USE WITH MAINS OR SIMILAR POWER SUPPLY SYSTEMS; CONVERSION OF DC OR AC INPUT POWER INTO SURGE OUTPUT POWER;). As a Foreign Corporation, Actron Technology Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Actron sits between Sioptica Gmbh (25 patents, rank #12,326) and Aisin AW Industries Co., Ltd. (24 patents, rank #12,334) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 35.3/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 16 grants, compared with 7 in the 2015–2019 window, a +129% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Actron Technology Corporation's 11.8 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 15 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
