USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 11 granted patents across 5 technology areas, active 2021–2024. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: H02K (DYNAMO-ELECTRIC MACHINES).
The verdict
Odawara holds 11 US patents across 5 technology areas, rank #24,909 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Odawara Engineering Co., Ltd. has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2021 and 2024, placing Odawara Engineering Co., Ltd. at rank #24,909 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 5 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in H02K (DYNAMO-ELECTRIC MACHINES). As a Foreign Corporation, Odawara Engineering Co., Ltd. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Odawara sits between Nuix Limited (11 patents, rank #24,905) and Oertli-instrumente Ag (11 patents, rank #24,913) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 35.6/100 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. Historical data spans 2021 through 2024, with 11 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. 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. Odawara Engineering Co., Ltd.'s 12.4 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 5 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Odawara Engineering Co., Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Odawara's 11 grants land it in the top 49% 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.
