Jungheinrich AG

Jungheinrich AG has been granted 136 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Jungheinrich AG at rank #2,824 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 56 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 13.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in B66F (HOISTING, LIFTING, HAULING OR PUSHING, NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR, e.g. DEVICES WHICH APPLY A LIFTING OR PUSHING FORCE DIRECTLY TO THE SURFACE OF A LOAD). As a Foreign Corporation, Jungheinrich AG is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 56.0/100 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 87 grants, compared with 49 in the 2015–2019 window — a +78% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Jungheinrich AG's 13.1 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 56 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Jungheinrich AG against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
