Portfolio overview

Ellergon Antriebstechnik Gesellschaft M.b.h. has been granted 9 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Ellergon Antriebstechnik Gesellschaft M.b.h. at rank #28,686 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 9 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in F16D (COUPLINGS FOR TRANSMITTING ROTATION; CLUTCHES; BRAKES). As a Foreign Corporation, Ellergon Antriebstechnik Gesellschaft M.b.h. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Ellergon sits between Elekta Instrument AB (9 patents, rank #28,682) and Embalajes Capsa, S.l. (9 patents, rank #28,690) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 42.1/100 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 3 grants, compared with 6 in the 2015–2019 window, a -50% 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. Ellergon Antriebstechnik Gesellschaft M.b.h.'s 17.0 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 9 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Ellergon Antriebstechnik Gesellschaft M.b.h. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
