Overall rank by patents
#11,255
of 50,000 tracked assignees
USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 27 granted patents across 10 technology areas, recorded in grant years 2022–2025. Grant-trend analysis is cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search; it does not measure application filings, current R&D, or legal strength. Primary class: F04B (POSITIVE-DISPLACEMENT MACHINES FOR LIQUIDS; PUMPS).
The verdict
According to USPTO PatentsView, GD ranks #11,255 of 50,000 tracked US assignees by granted-patent volume, with 27 patents across 10 technology areas.
GD Energy Products, Llc has been granted 27 US utility patents between 2022 and 2025, placing GD Energy Products, Llc at #11,255 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 10 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in F04B (POSITIVE-DISPLACEMENT MACHINES FOR LIQUIDS; PUMPS). As a US Corporation, GD Energy Products, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, GD sits between Fox Hardwood Lumber Company, Llc (27 patents, rank #11,249) and Gleason-pfauter Maschinenfabrik Gmbh (27 patents, rank #11,257) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 52.8/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Historical data spans 2022 through 2025, with 27 total grants over that period. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The US Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. GD Energy Products, Llc's 16.9 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 10 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
GD's 27 grants land it in the top 10% 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.
