USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 10 granted patents across 5 technology areas, active 2019–2020. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: H01H (ELECTRIC SWITCHES; RELAYS; SELECTORS; EMERGENCY PROTECTIVE DEVICES).
The verdict
Dongguan holds 10 US patents across 5 technology areas, rank #26,158 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Dongguan City Kaihua Electronics Co., Ltd has been granted 10 US utility patents between 2019 and 2020, placing Dongguan City Kaihua Electronics Co., Ltd at rank #26,158 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 5 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 8.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01H (ELECTRIC SWITCHES; RELAYS; SELECTORS; EMERGENCY PROTECTIVE DEVICES). As a Foreign Corporation, Dongguan City Kaihua Electronics Co., Ltd is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Dongguan sits between Docsolid Llc (10 patents, rank #26,154) and Dorner Mfg. Corp. (10 patents, rank #26,162) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 21.3/100 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 2 grants, compared with 8 in the 2015–2019 window, a -75% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Dongguan City Kaihua Electronics Co., Ltd's 8.5 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 5 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Dongguan City Kaihua Electronics Co., Ltd against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Dongguan's 10 grants land it in the top 92% 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.
