Portfolio overview

DK Crown Holdings Inc. has been granted 56 US utility patents between 2023 and 2025, placing DK Crown Holdings Inc. at #6,016 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 10 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in G07F (COIN-FREED OR LIKE APPARATUS). As a US Corporation, DK Crown Holdings Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, DK sits between Cyberlink Corp. (56 patents, rank #6,011) and Duravit Aktiengesellschaft (56 patents, rank #6,019) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 56.3/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Historical data spans 2023 through 2025, with 56 total grants over that period. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The US Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.

Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. DK Crown Holdings Inc.'s 18.6 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 10 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
