The verdict
Diehl holds 11 US patents across 21 technology areas, rank #24,209 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Diehl Aviation Laupheim Gmbh has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing Diehl Aviation Laupheim Gmbh at rank #24,209 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 21 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in B64D (EQUIPMENT FOR FITTING IN OR TO AIRCRAFT; FLIGHT SUITS; PARACHUTES; ARRANGEMENT OR MOUNTING OF POWER PLANTS OR PROPULSION TRANSMISSIONS IN AIRCRAFT). As a Foreign Corporation, Diehl Aviation Laupheim Gmbh is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Diehl sits between Deluxe Corporation (11 patents, rank #24,205) and Digital Fountain, Inc. (11 patents, rank #24,213) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 46.0/100 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. Historical data spans 2020 through 2025, with 11 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. 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. Diehl Aviation Laupheim Gmbh's 16.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 21 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Diehl Aviation Laupheim Gmbh against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Diehl's 11 grants land it in the top 22% 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.
