What this shows Ningbo Jinghui Opto-electronic Co., Ltd. stamps GRANTS-MICRO, MID-PACK, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-NARROW, INNOV-PAR, CLAIMS-SPARSE, TYPE-FRNCORP, SPAN-YRS, BOOK-RICH. Volume places it #17,039 of 50,000; Innovation Score 44.0/100 sits in the top 27% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Nexon Korea Corporation (±0 grants).
Ningbo Jinghui Opto-electronic Co., Ltd. has been granted 17 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing Ningbo Jinghui Opto-electronic Co., Ltd. at #17,039 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 8 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 6.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in F21V (FUNCTIONAL FEATURES OR DETAILS OF LIGHTING DEVICES OR SYSTEMS THEREOF; STRUCTURAL COMBINATIONS OF LIGHTING DEVICES WITH OTHER ARTICLES, NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR). As a Foreign Corporation, Ningbo Jinghui Opto-electronic Co., Ltd. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Ningbo sits between Nexon Korea Corporation (17 patents, rank #17,020) and NTT Advanced Technology Corporation (17 patents, rank #17,028) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 44.0/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Historical data spans 2020 through 2025, with 17 total grants over that period. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Ningbo Jinghui Opto-electronic Co., Ltd.'s 6.7 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 8 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
