Portfolio overview

Carr Lane Manufacturing Company has been granted 10 US utility patents between 2019 and 2024, placing Carr Lane Manufacturing Company at rank #26,018 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 4 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in B25B (TOOLS OR BENCH DEVICES NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR, FOR FASTENING, CONNECTING, DISENGAGING OR HOLDING). As a US Corporation, Carr Lane Manufacturing Company is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Carr sits between Callminer, Inc. (10 patents, rank #26,014) and Cemm—forschungszentrum Für Molekulare Medizin Gmbh (10 patents, rank #26,022) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 28.1/100 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 8 grants, compared with 2 in the 2015–2019 window, a +300% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Carr Lane Manufacturing Company's 10.1 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while specialization in 4 subclasses reflects a tightly scoped invention area. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Carr Lane Manufacturing Company against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
