Portfolio overview

Japan Aviation Electronics Industry, Limited has been granted 1,104 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Japan Aviation Electronics Industry, Limited at rank #405 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 99 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 6.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01R (ELECTRICALLY-CONDUCTIVE CONNECTIONS; STRUCTURAL ASSOCIATIONS OF A PLURALITY OF MUTUALLY-INSULATED ELECTRICAL CONNECTING ELEMENTS; COUPLING DEVICES; CURRENT COLLECTORS). As a Foreign Corporation, Japan Aviation Electronics Industry, Limited is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Japan sits between ASM IP Holding B.v. (1,116 patents, rank #401) and Boston Scientific Neuromodulation Corporation (1,098 patents, rank #409) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 63.3/100 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 611 grants, compared with 493 in the 2015–2019 window, a +24% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Japan Aviation Electronics Industry, Limited's 6.9 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 99 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Japan Aviation Electronics Industry, Limited against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
