Portfolio overview
JOHNSON ELECTRIC INTERNATIONAL AG has been granted 214 US utility patents between 2019 and 2025, placing JOHNSON ELECTRIC INTERNATIONAL AG at rank #1,876 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 66 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in H02K (DYNAMO-ELECTRIC MACHINES). As a Foreign Corporation, JOHNSON ELECTRIC INTERNATIONAL AG is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 52.8/100 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 115 grants, compared with 99 in the 2015–2019 window — a +16% 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. JOHNSON ELECTRIC INTERNATIONAL AG's 14.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 66 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark JOHNSON ELECTRIC INTERNATIONAL AG against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
