Portfolio overview

Hussmann Corporation has been granted 75 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Hussmann Corporation at rank #4,669 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 25 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 17.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in A47F (SPECIAL FURNITURE, FITTINGS, OR ACCESSORIES FOR SHOPS, STOREHOUSES, BARS, RESTAURANTS OR THE LIKE; PAYING COUNTERS). As a US Corporation, Hussmann Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Hussmann sits between Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“freddie Mac”) (75 patents, rank #4,665) and LDR Medical (75 patents, rank #4,673) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 46.9/100 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 26 grants, compared with 49 in the 2015–2019 window, a -47% 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. Hussmann Corporation's 17.1 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 25 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Hussmann Corporation 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.
