The verdict
Rotzinger holds 11 US patents across 3 technology areas, rank #25,064 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Rotzinger Ag has been granted 11 US utility patents between 2017 and 2024, placing Rotzinger Ag at rank #25,064 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 3 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 8.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in B65G (TRANSPORT OR STORAGE DEVICES, e.g. CONVEYORS FOR LOADING OR TIPPING, SHOP CONVEYOR SYSTEMS OR PNEUMATIC TUBE CONVEYORS). As a Foreign Corporation, Rotzinger Ag is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Rotzinger sits between Rockbestos Surprenant Cable Corp. (11 patents, rank #25,060) and Ravdos Holdings, Inc. (11 patents, rank #25,068) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 22.0/100 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 3 grants, compared with 8 in the 2015–2019 window, a -62% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Rotzinger Ag's 8.4 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while specialization in 3 subclasses reflects a tightly scoped invention area. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Rotzinger Ag against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Rotzinger's 11 grants land it in the top 91% 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.
