Portfolio overview
Legrand Connectrac has been granted 5 US utility patents between 2020 and 2023, placing Legrand Connectrac at rank #48,300 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 2 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01R (ELECTRICALLY-CONDUCTIVE CONNECTIONS; STRUCTURAL ASSOCIATIONS OF A PLURALITY OF MUTUALLY-INSULATED ELECTRICAL CONNECTING ELEMENTS; COUPLING DEVICES; CURRENT COLLECTORS). As a US Corporation, Legrand Connectrac is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Legrand sits between Leader Engineering-fabrication, Inc. (5 patents, rank #48,296) and Lembaga Getah Malaysia (5 patents, rank #48,304) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 24.7/100 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. Historical data spans 2020 through 2023, with 5 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. 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. Legrand Connectrac's 19.8 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while specialization in 2 subclasses reflects a tightly scoped invention area. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Legrand Connectrac against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
