Portfolio overview

Nevis Industries Llc has been granted 30 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Nevis Industries Llc at rank #10,411 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 4 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in B61F (RAIL VEHICLE SUSPENSIONS, e.g. UNDERFRAMES, BOGIES OR ARRANGEMENTS OF WHEEL AXLES; RAIL VEHICLES FOR USE ON TRACKS OF DIFFERENT WIDTH; PREVENTING DERAILING OF RAIL VEHICLES; WHEEL GUARDS, OBSTRUCTION ). As a US Corporation, Nevis Industries Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Nevis sits between Nippon Closures Co., Ltd (30 patents, rank #10,407) and Numenta, Inc. (30 patents, rank #10,415) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 29.0/100 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 7 grants, compared with 23 in the 2015–2019 window, a -70% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Nevis Industries Llc's 14.3 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while specialization in 4 subclasses reflects a tightly scoped invention area. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Nevis Industries Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
