What this shows Legrand AV Inc. stamps GRANTS-SMALL, UPPER-Q, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-FOCUS, INNOV-THIN, CLAIMS-SPARSE, TYPE-USCORP, VEL-SURGE, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #10,387 of 50,000; Innovation Score 38.2/100 sits in the top 41% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Kwik Tek, Inc. (±0 grants).
Legrand AV Inc. has been granted 30 US utility patents between 2019 and 2025, placing Legrand AV Inc. at #10,387 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 16 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 7.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in F16M (FRAMES, CASINGS OR BEDS OF ENGINES, MACHINES OR APPARATUS, NOT SPECIFIC TO ENGINES, MACHINES OR APPARATUS PROVIDED FOR ELSEWHERE; STANDS; SUPPORTS). As a US Corporation, Legrand AV Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Legrand sits between Kwik Tek, Inc. (30 patents, rank #10,378) and Lisec Austria Gmbh (30 patents, rank #10,386) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 38.2/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 14 grants, compared with 8 in the 2015–2019 window, a +75% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The US Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Legrand AV Inc.'s 7.1 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 16 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
