Across all tracked assignees
USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 127 granted patents across 24 technology areas, active 2015–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: G01L (MEASURING FORCE, STRESS, TORQUE, WORK, MECHANICAL POWER, MECHANICAL EFFICIENCY, OR FLUID PRESSURE).
The verdict
Kulite holds 127 US patents across 24 technology areas, rank #2,992 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Kulite Semiconductor Products, Inc. has been granted 127 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Kulite Semiconductor Products, Inc. at rank #2,992 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 24 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.2 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01L (MEASURING FORCE, STRESS, TORQUE, WORK, MECHANICAL POWER, MECHANICAL EFFICIENCY, OR FLUID PRESSURE). As a US Corporation, Kulite Semiconductor Products, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Kulite sits between DANA Canada Corporation (127 patents, rank #2,988) and University OF Tsukuba (127 patents, rank #2,996) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 48.6/100 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 35 grants, compared with 92 in the 2015–2019 window, a -62% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The US 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. Kulite Semiconductor Products, Inc.'s 18.2 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 24 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Kulite Semiconductor Products, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Kulite's 127 grants land it in the top 16% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
