Portfolio overview

Hendrickson USA, L.l.c. has been granted 134 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Hendrickson USA, L.l.c. at rank #2,858 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 39 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in B60G (VEHICLE SUSPENSION ARRANGEMENTS). As a US Corporation, Hendrickson USA, L.l.c. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Hendrickson sits between Tamura Corporation (135 patents, rank #2,854) and P-tech Co., Ltd. (134 patents, rank #2,862) - 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 52 grants, compared with 82 in the 2015–2019 window, a -37% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The US 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. Hendrickson USA, L.l.c.'s 19.1 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 39 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Hendrickson USA, L.l.c. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

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.
