Portfolio overview
Gautschi Engineering Gmbh has been granted 5 US utility patents between 2018 and 2024, placing Gautschi Engineering Gmbh at rank #47,142 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 10 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.0 claims per patent with primary concentration in F27D (DETAILS OR ACCESSORIES OF FURNACES, KILNS, OVENS OR RETORTS, IN SO FAR AS THEY ARE OF KINDS OCCURRING IN MORE THAN ONE KIND OF FURNACE). As a Foreign Corporation, Gautschi Engineering Gmbh is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Gautschi sits between Garpie, Inc. (5 patents, rank #47,138) and Gelmart Industries, Inc. (5 patents, rank #47,146) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 33.6/100 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 4 grants, compared with 1 in the 2015–2019 window, a +300% 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. Gautschi Engineering Gmbh's 16.0 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 10 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Gautschi Engineering Gmbh against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
