USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 8 granted patents across 6 technology areas, active 2017–2024. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: F04B (POSITIVE-DISPLACEMENT MACHINES FOR LIQUIDS; PUMPS).
The verdict
Lutz holds 8 US patents across 6 technology areas, rank #32,382 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Lutz Pumpen Gmbh has been granted 8 US utility patents between 2017 and 2024, placing Lutz Pumpen Gmbh at rank #32,382 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 6 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 3.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in F04B (POSITIVE-DISPLACEMENT MACHINES FOR LIQUIDS; PUMPS). As a Foreign Corporation, Lutz Pumpen Gmbh is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Lutz sits between Lucerno Dynamics, Llc (8 patents, rank #32,378) and M.i. TECH Co., Ltd. (8 patents, rank #32,386) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 25.2/100 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 6 grants, compared with 2 in the 2015–2019 window, a +200% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Lutz Pumpen Gmbh's 3.8 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 6 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Lutz Pumpen Gmbh against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Lutz's 8 grants land it in the top 83% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
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.
