The verdict
Denso holds 11 US patents across 10 technology areas, rank #24,184 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Denso Marston Ltd. has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Denso Marston Ltd. at rank #24,184 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 10 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.8 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, Denso Marston Ltd. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Denso sits between DATA Scape Ltd. (11 patents, rank #24,180) and Dizpersion Corporation (11 patents, rank #24,188) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 33.7/100 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 6 grants, compared with 5 in the 2015–2019 window, a +20% 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. Denso Marston Ltd.'s 18.8 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 10 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Denso Marston Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Denso's 11 grants land it in the top 55% 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.
