USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 68 granted patents across 43 technology areas, active 2016–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: G01N (INVESTIGATING OR ANALYSING MATERIALS BY DETERMINING THEIR CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL PROPERTIES).
The verdict
China holds 68 US patents across 43 technology areas, rank #5,066 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
China University Of Mining And Technology-beijing has been granted 68 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing China University Of Mining And Technology-beijing at rank #5,066 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 43 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01N (INVESTIGATING OR ANALYSING MATERIALS BY DETERMINING THEIR CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL PROPERTIES). As a Foreign Corporation, China University Of Mining And Technology-beijing is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, China sits between Cardioinsight Technologies Inc. (68 patents, rank #5,062) and Extrahop Networks, Inc. (68 patents, rank #5,070) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 63.4/100 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 53 grants, compared with 15 in the 2015–2019 window, a +253% 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. China University Of Mining And Technology-beijing's 10.4 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 43 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark China University Of Mining And Technology-beijing against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
China's 68 grants land it in the top 2% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
