What this shows Sumida Components & Modules Gmbh stamps GRANTS-MICRO, MID-PACK, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-FOCUS, INNOV-THIN, CLAIMS-RICH, TYPE-FRNCORP, VEL-FLAT, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #19,197 of 50,000; Innovation Score 35.2/100 sits in the top 50% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is SPX Corporation (±0 grants).
Sumida Components & Modules Gmbh has been granted 15 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Sumida Components & Modules Gmbh at #19,197 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 13 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01F (MAGNETS; INDUCTANCES; TRANSFORMERS; SELECTION OF MATERIALS FOR THEIR MAGNETIC PROPERTIES). As a Foreign Corporation, Sumida Components & Modules Gmbh is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Sumida sits between SPX Corporation (15 patents, rank #19,134) and Suzhou Centec Communications Co., Ltd. (15 patents, rank #19,142) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 35.2/100 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 7 grants, compared with 7 in the 2015–2019 window, a +0% 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 Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Sumida Components & Modules Gmbh's 14.1 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 13 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
