Portfolio overview

Briggs & Stratton, Llc has been granted 302 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Briggs & Stratton, Llc at rank #1,390 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 90 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in A01D (HARVESTING; MOWING). As a US Corporation, Briggs & Stratton, Llc is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Briggs sits between Magnachip Semiconductor, Ltd. (303 patents, rank #1,386) and Hall Labs Llc (302 patents, rank #1,394) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 60.9/100 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 169 grants, compared with 133 in the 2015–2019 window, a +27% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. The US 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. Briggs & Stratton, Llc's 15.3 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 90 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Briggs & Stratton, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
