Portfolio overview

Panasonic Appliances Refrigeration Devices Singapore has been granted 15 US utility patents between 2018 and 2023, placing Panasonic Appliances Refrigeration Devices Singapore at rank #19,019 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 10 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in F04B (POSITIVE-DISPLACEMENT MACHINES FOR LIQUIDS; PUMPS). As a Foreign Corporation, Panasonic Appliances Refrigeration Devices Singapore is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 31.2/100 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 8 grants, compared with 7 in the 2015–2019 window, a +14% shift in five-year velocity. Steady filing volume suggests sustained innovation without dramatic pivots. 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. Panasonic Appliances Refrigeration Devices Singapore's 12.5 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 10 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Panasonic Appliances Refrigeration Devices Singapore against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

Guides to patent portfolio analysis

How to use this portfolio

Panasonic's 15 grants land it in the top 63% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - Panasonic ranks #19,019 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in F04B - see who else leads that technology area. F04B leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

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.
