USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 175 granted patents across 118 technology areas, active 2015–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: G01N (INVESTIGATING OR ANALYSING MATERIALS BY DETERMINING THEIR CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL PROPERTIES).
The verdict
Beijing holds 175 US patents across 118 technology areas, rank #2,238 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Beijing University OF Technology has been granted 175 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Beijing University OF Technology at rank #2,238 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 118 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 5.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01N (INVESTIGATING OR ANALYSING MATERIALS BY DETERMINING THEIR CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL PROPERTIES). As a Foreign Corporation, Beijing University OF Technology is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Beijing sits between Thermos L.l.c. (176 patents, rank #2,234) and LNW Gaming, Inc. (175 patents, rank #2,242) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 60.1/100 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. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 120 grants, compared with 55 in the 2015–2019 window, a +118% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Beijing University OF Technology's 5.6 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Beijing University OF Technology against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Beijing's 175 grants land it in the top 3% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
