What this shows Smart Vent Products Llc stamps GRANTS-SMALL, MID-PACK, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-NARROW, INNOV-THIN, CLAIMS-RICH, TYPE-USCORP, VEL-DROP, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #14,948 of 50,000; Innovation Score 30.1/100 sits in the top 67% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Signpath Pharma Inc. (±0 grants).
Smart Vent Products Llc has been granted 20 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Smart Vent Products Llc at #14,948 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 9 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in E06B (FIXED OR MOVABLE CLOSURES FOR OPENINGS IN BUILDINGS, VEHICLES, FENCES OR LIKE ENCLOSURES IN GENERAL, e.g. DOORS, WINDOWS, BLINDS, GATES). As a US Corporation, Smart Vent Products Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Smart sits between Signpath Pharma Inc. (20 patents, rank #14,953) and State Of Oregon Acting By And Through The State Board Of Higher Ed. On Behalf Of Oregon State Univ. (20 patents, rank #14,961) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 30.1/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 5 grants, compared with 14 in the 2015–2019 window, a -64% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The US Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Smart Vent Products Llc's 14.9 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 9 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
