Portfolio overview
Kverneland Group Operations Norway AS has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2016 and 2022, placing Kverneland Group Operations Norway AS at rank #24,645 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 5 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 9.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in A01B (SOIL WORKING IN AGRICULTURE OR FORESTRY; PARTS, DETAILS, OR ACCESSORIES OF AGRICULTURAL MACHINES OR IMPLEMENTS, IN GENERAL). As a Foreign Corporation, Kverneland Group Operations Norway AS is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Kverneland sits between Korean Broadcasting System (11 patents, rank #24,641) and Kyung DONG ONE Corporation (11 patents, rank #24,649) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 24.4/100 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 3 grants, compared with 8 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 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. Kverneland Group Operations Norway AS's 9.6 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 5 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Kverneland Group Operations Norway AS against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
