The verdict
Collins holds 89 US patents across 46 technology areas, rank #4,034 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Collins Engine Nozzles, Inc. has been granted 89 US utility patents between 2022 and 2025, placing Collins Engine Nozzles, Inc. at rank #4,034 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 46 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in F23R (GENERATING COMBUSTION PRODUCTS OF HIGH PRESSURE OR HIGH VELOCITY, e.g. GAS-TURBINE COMBUSTION CHAMBERS). As a US Corporation, Collins Engine Nozzles, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Collins sits between BGC Partners, Inc. (89 patents, rank #4,030) and Dentsply International Inc. (89 patents, rank #4,038) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 67.1/100 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. Historical data spans 2022 through 2025, with 89 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. 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. Collins Engine Nozzles, Inc.'s 12.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 46 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Collins Engine Nozzles, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Collins's 89 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.
