Portfolio overview
PAO SHEN ENTERPRISES CO., LTD. has been granted 16 US utility patents between 2018 and 2024, placing PAO SHEN ENTERPRISES CO., LTD. at rank #17,979 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 11 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 7.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in B25C (HAND-HELD NAILING OR STAPLING TOOLS; MANUALLY OPERATED PORTABLE STAPLING TOOLS). As a Foreign Corporation, PAO SHEN ENTERPRISES CO., LTD. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 28.9/100 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 10 grants, compared with 6 in the 2015–2019 window — a +67% 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. PAO SHEN ENTERPRISES CO., LTD.'s 7.3 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while concentration in 11 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark PAO SHEN ENTERPRISES CO., LTD. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
