Portfolio overview

SAFRAN TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS has been granted 146 US utility patents between 2018 and 2025, placing SAFRAN TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS at rank #2,666 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 37 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in F05D (INDEXING SCHEME FOR ASPECTS RELATING TO NON-POSITIVE-DISPLACEMENT MACHINES OR ENGINES, GAS-TURBINES OR JET-PROPULSION PLANTS). As a Foreign Corporation, SAFRAN TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 56.3/100 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 131 grants, compared with 15 in the 2015–2019 window — a +773% 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. SAFRAN TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS's 12.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 37 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark SAFRAN TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
