Portfolio overview
Federal-Mogul Nurnberg GmbH has been granted 23 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Federal-Mogul Nurnberg GmbH at rank #12,928 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 14 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in F02F (CYLINDERS, PISTONS OR CASINGS, FOR COMBUSTION ENGINES; ARRANGEMENTS OF SEALINGS IN COMBUSTION ENGINES). As a Foreign Corporation, Federal-Mogul Nurnberg GmbH is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 37.2/100 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 10 grants, compared with 13 in the 2015–2019 window — a -23% 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. Federal-Mogul Nurnberg GmbH's 10.6 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 14 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Federal-Mogul Nurnberg GmbH against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
