What this shows Institute Of Electrical Engineering, Chinese Academy Of Sciences stamps GRANTS-MICRO, MID-PACK, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-FOCUS, INNOV-THIN, CLAIMS-RICH, TYPE-FRNCORP, VEL-FLAT, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #18,762 of 50,000; Innovation Score 33.9/100 sits in the top 54% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Innovation Hammer Llc (±0 grants).
Institute Of Electrical Engineering, Chinese Academy Of Sciences has been granted 15 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Institute Of Electrical Engineering, Chinese Academy Of Sciences at #18,762 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 16 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01R (MEASURING ELECTRIC VARIABLES; MEASURING MAGNETIC VARIABLES). As a Foreign Corporation, Institute Of Electrical Engineering, Chinese Academy Of Sciences is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Institute sits between Innovation Hammer Llc (15 patents, rank #18,763) and Interlight Optotech Corporation (15 patents, rank #18,771) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 33.9/100 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. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 7 grants, compared with 7 in the 2015–2019 window, a +0% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. 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 Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Institute Of Electrical Engineering, Chinese Academy Of Sciences's 12.5 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 16 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
