Portfolio overview

Fujitsu General Limited has been granted 207 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Fujitsu General Limited at rank #1,936 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 42 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 5.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in F24F (AIR-CONDITIONING; AIR-HUMIDIFICATION; VENTILATION; USE OF AIR CURRENTS FOR SCREENING). As a Foreign Corporation, Fujitsu General Limited is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Fujitsu sits between Novozymes, Inc. (208 patents, rank #1,932) and Magna Closures Inc. (207 patents, rank #1,940) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 53.2/100 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 127 grants, compared with 80 in the 2015–2019 window, a +59% 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. Fujitsu General Limited's 5.5 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 42 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Fujitsu General Limited against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

Fujitsu's 207 grants land it in the top 9% 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 - Fujitsu ranks #1,936 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in F24F - see who else leads that technology area. F24F 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.
