The verdict
Danfoss holds 42 US patents across 9 technology areas, rank #7,683 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Danfoss Micro Channel HEAT Exchanger (jiaxing) Co., Ltd. has been granted 42 US utility patents between 2017 and 2024, placing Danfoss Micro Channel HEAT Exchanger (jiaxing) Co., Ltd. at rank #7,683 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 9 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in F28D (HEAT-EXCHANGE APPARATUS, NOT PROVIDED FOR IN ANOTHER SUBCLASS, IN WHICH THE HEAT-EXCHANGE MEDIA DO NOT COME INTO DIRECT CONTACT). As a Foreign Corporation, Danfoss Micro Channel HEAT Exchanger (jiaxing) Co., Ltd. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Danfoss sits between Campvalley (xiamen) Co., Ltd. (42 patents, rank #7,679) and Dawn Equipment Company (42 patents, rank #7,687) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 31.4/100 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 21 grants, compared with 21 in the 2015–2019 window, a +0% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Danfoss Micro Channel HEAT Exchanger (jiaxing) Co., Ltd.'s 10.8 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 9 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Danfoss Micro Channel HEAT Exchanger (jiaxing) Co., Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Danfoss's 42 grants land it in the top 62% 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.
