Portfolio overview

Baxter Medical Systems Gmbh + Co. KG has been granted 9 US utility patents between 2023 and 2025, placing Baxter Medical Systems Gmbh + Co. KG at rank #28,256 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 11 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61G (TRANSPORT, PERSONAL CONVEYANCES, OR ACCOMMODATION SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR PATIENTS OR DISABLED PERSONS ; OPERATING TABLES OR CHAIRS; CHAIRS FOR DENTISTRY; FUNERAL DEVICES). As a Foreign Corporation, Baxter Medical Systems Gmbh + Co. KG is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Baxter sits between Barzan Holdings QSTP Llc (9 patents, rank #28,252) and Becker Orthopedic Appliance Company (9 patents, rank #28,260) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 50.2/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Historical data spans 2023 through 2025, with 9 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Baxter Medical Systems Gmbh + Co. KG's 17.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 11 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Baxter Medical Systems Gmbh + Co. KG against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
