Portfolio overview
BEIHAI HKC OPTOELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. has been granted 33 US utility patents between 2022 and 2025, placing BEIHAI HKC OPTOELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. at rank #9,443 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 16 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in G02F (OPTICAL DEVICES OR ARRANGEMENTS FOR THE CONTROL OF LIGHT BY MODIFICATION OF THE OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF THE MEDIA OF THE ELEMENTS INVOLVED THEREIN; NON-LINEAR OPTICS; FREQUENCY-CHANGING OF LIGHT; OPTICA). As a Foreign Corporation, BEIHAI HKC OPTOELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 55.0/100 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 2022 through 2025, with 33 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. BEIHAI HKC OPTOELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.'s 14.4 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 16 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark BEIHAI HKC OPTOELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
