The verdict
Stabilus holds 82 US patents across 53 technology areas, rank #4,359 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Stabilus Gmbh has been granted 82 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Stabilus Gmbh at rank #4,359 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 53 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in E05F (DEVICES FOR MOVING WINGS INTO OPEN OR CLOSED POSITION; CHECKS FOR WINGS; WING FITTINGS NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR, CONCERNED WITH THE FUNCTIONING OF THE WING). As a Foreign Corporation, Stabilus Gmbh is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Stabilus sits between Rush University Medical Center (82 patents, rank #4,355) and YVES Saint Laurent (82 patents, rank #4,363) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 52.3/100 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 41 grants, compared with 41 in the 2015–2019 window, a +0% 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. Stabilus Gmbh's 12.8 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 53 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Stabilus Gmbh against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Stabilus's 82 grants land it in the top 10% 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.
