Portfolio overview

Leuze Electronic Gmbh + Co. KG has been granted 8 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Leuze Electronic Gmbh + Co. KG at rank #32,351 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 11 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in G01V (GEOPHYSICS; GRAVITATIONAL MEASUREMENTS; DETECTING MASSES OR OBJECTS; TAGS). As a Foreign Corporation, Leuze Electronic Gmbh + Co. KG is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Leuze sits between Leisure Time Products, Llc (8 patents, rank #32,347) and Li Industries, Inc. (8 patents, rank #32,355) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 44.4/100 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 4 grants, compared with 4 in the 2015–2019 window, a +0% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Leuze Electronic Gmbh + Co. KG's 19.5 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 11 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Leuze Electronic Gmbh + Co. KG against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
