Portfolio overview

DAIKIN APPLIED AMERICAS INC. has been granted 36 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing DAIKIN APPLIED AMERICAS INC. at rank #8,776 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 19 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in F25B (REFRIGERATION MACHINES, PLANTS OR SYSTEMS; COMBINED HEATING AND REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS; HEAT PUMP SYSTEMS). As a US Corporation, DAIKIN APPLIED AMERICAS INC. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 38.7/100 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 20 grants, compared with 16 in the 2015–2019 window — a +25% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. DAIKIN APPLIED AMERICAS INC.'s 15.8 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 19 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark DAIKIN APPLIED AMERICAS INC. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
