Brose Fahrzeugteile Gmbh & Co. Kommanditgesellschaft, Hallstadt has been granted 31 US utility patents between 2015 and 2020, placing Brose Fahrzeugteile Gmbh & Co. Kommanditgesellschaft, Hallstadt at #9,986 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 30 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in E05F (DEVICES FOR MOVING WINGS INTO OPEN OR CLOSED POSITION; CHECKS FOR WINGS; WING FITTINGS NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR, CONCERNED WITH THE FUNCTIONING OF THE WING). As a Foreign Corporation, Brose Fahrzeugteile Gmbh & Co. Kommanditgesellschaft, Hallstadt is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Brose sits between Beijing Jingdong Zhenshi Information Technology Co., Ltd. (31 patents, rank #9,984) and Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois (c.h.u.v.) (31 patents, rank #9,992) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 38.3/100 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 3 grants, compared with 28 in the 2015–2019 window, a -89% 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. Brose Fahrzeugteile Gmbh & Co. Kommanditgesellschaft, Hallstadt's 11.6 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 30 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
