Portfolio overview

Brose Fahrzeugteile Gmbh & Co. has been granted 9 US utility patents between 2017 and 2023, placing Brose Fahrzeugteile Gmbh & Co. at rank #28,241 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 15 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 13.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in E05Y (INDEXING SCHEME ASSOCIATED WITH SUBCLASSES E05D AND E05F, RELATING TO CONSTRUCTION ELEMENTS, ELECTRIC CONTROL, POWER SUPPLY, POWER SIGNAL OR TRANSMISSION, USER INTERFACES, MOUNTING OR COUPLING, DETAIL). As a Foreign Corporation, Brose Fahrzeugteile Gmbh & Co. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Brose sits between Brighten Optix Corp. (9 patents, rank #28,237) and Buddhist TZU CHI Medical Foundation (9 patents, rank #28,245) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 31.3/100 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 6 grants, compared with 3 in the 2015–2019 window, a +100% 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. Brose Fahrzeugteile Gmbh & Co.'s 13.8 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 15 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Brose Fahrzeugteile Gmbh & Co. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
