The verdict
Emerson holds 11 US patents across 15 technology areas, rank #24,285 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Emerson Climate Technologies Retail Solutions, Inc. has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2016 and 2021, placing Emerson Climate Technologies Retail Solutions, Inc. at rank #24,285 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 15 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in F25B (REFRIGERATION MACHINES, PLANTS OR SYSTEMS; COMBINED HEATING AND REFRIGERATION SYSTEMS; HEAT PUMP SYSTEMS). As a US Corporation, Emerson Climate Technologies Retail Solutions, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Emerson sits between Eleven Street Co., Ltd. (11 patents, rank #24,281) and Endocare, Inc. (11 patents, rank #24,289) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 34.1/100 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 8 in the 2015–2019 window, a -62% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The US 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. Emerson Climate Technologies Retail Solutions, Inc.'s 19.7 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 15 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Emerson Climate Technologies Retail Solutions, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Emerson's 11 grants land it in the top 53% 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.
