Portfolio overview

Lintec Corporation has been granted 275 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Lintec Corporation at rank #1,508 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 87 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in C09J (ADHESIVES; NON-MECHANICAL ASPECTS OF ADHESIVE PROCESSES IN GENERAL; ADHESIVE PROCESSES NOT PROVIDED FOR ELSEWHERE; USE OF MATERIALS AS ADHESIVES). As a Foreign Corporation, Lintec Corporation is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Lintec sits between Triad National Security, Llc (277 patents, rank #1,504) and United States Government As Represented By The Department Of Veterans Affairs (275 patents, rank #1,512) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 56.2/100 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 129 grants, compared with 146 in the 2015–2019 window, a -12% 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. Lintec Corporation's 11.4 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while a multi-domain presence across 87 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Lintec Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

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.
