Portfolio overview

fischer automotive systems GmbH & Co. KG has been granted 19 US utility patents between 2018 and 2023, placing fischer automotive systems GmbH & Co. KG at rank #15,776 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 10 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 10.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in B60H (ARRANGEMENTS OF HEATING, COOLING, VENTILATING OR OTHER AIR-TREATING DEVICES SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR PASSENGER OR GOODS SPACES OF VEHICLES). As a Foreign Corporation, fischer automotive systems GmbH & Co. KG is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 38.9/100 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 14 grants, compared with 5 in the 2015–2019 window, a +180% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. fischer automotive systems GmbH & Co. KG's 10.4 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 10 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark fischer automotive systems GmbH & Co. KG against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

Guides to patent portfolio analysis

How to use this portfolio

fischer's 19 grants land it in the top 40% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - fischer ranks #15,776 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in B60H - see who else leads that technology area. B60H leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

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.
