Portfolio overview

Kriwan Industrie-elektronik Gmbh has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2016 and 2020, placing Kriwan Industrie-elektronik Gmbh at rank #24,644 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 21 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in H02P (CONTROL OR REGULATION OF ELECTRIC MOTORS, ELECTRIC GENERATORS OR DYNAMO-ELECTRIC CONVERTERS; CONTROLLING TRANSFORMERS, REACTORS OR CHOKE COILS). As a Foreign Corporation, Kriwan Industrie-elektronik Gmbh is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Kriwan sits between Korea ZINC Co., Ltd. (11 patents, rank #24,640) and Kyoyu AGRI Co., Ltd. (11 patents, rank #24,648) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 33.6/100 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 2 grants, compared with 9 in the 2015–2019 window, a -78% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Kriwan Industrie-elektronik Gmbh's 14.7 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 21 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Kriwan Industrie-elektronik Gmbh against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
