USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 106 granted patents across 120 technology areas, active 2015–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: Y02P (CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION TECHNOLOGIES IN THE PRODUCTION OR PROCESSING OF GOODS).
The verdict
Chongqing holds 106 US patents across 120 technology areas, rank #3,471 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Chongqing University has been granted 106 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Chongqing University at rank #3,471 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 120 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 8.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in Y02P (CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION TECHNOLOGIES IN THE PRODUCTION OR PROCESSING OF GOODS). As a Foreign Corporation, Chongqing University is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Chongqing sits between Andrew Wireless Systems Gmbh (106 patents, rank #3,467) and FCI USA Llc (106 patents, rank #3,475) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 66.0/100 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 93 grants, compared with 13 in the 2015–2019 window, a +615% 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. Chongqing University's 8.0 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Chongqing University against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Chongqing's 106 grants land it in the top 1% 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.
