Carrier Japan Corporation has been granted 20 US utility patents between 2024 and 2025, placing Carrier Japan Corporation at #14,519 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 12 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 6.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in F24F (AIR-CONDITIONING; AIR-HUMIDIFICATION; VENTILATION; USE OF AIR CURRENTS FOR SCREENING). As a Foreign Corporation, Carrier Japan Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Carrier sits between Canfield Scientific, Incorporated (20 patents, rank #14,533) and Chemistry Design Werks, Llc (20 patents, rank #14,541) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 46.9/100 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. Historical data spans 2024 through 2025, with 20 total grants over that period. 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. Carrier Japan Corporation's 6.8 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 12 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
