The verdict
Sunrise holds 17 US patents across 14 technology areas, rank #17,242 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Sunrise Medical (US) LLC has been granted 17 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Sunrise Medical (US) LLC at rank #17,242 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 14 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in A61G (TRANSPORT, PERSONAL CONVEYANCES, OR ACCOMMODATION SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR PATIENTS OR DISABLED PERSONS ; OPERATING TABLES OR CHAIRS; CHAIRS FOR DENTISTRY; FUNERAL DEVICES). As a US Corporation, Sunrise Medical (US) LLC is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 52.4/100 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 14 grants, compared with 3 in the 2015–2019 window, a +367% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The US 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. Sunrise Medical (US) LLC's 15.3 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 14 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Sunrise Medical (US) LLC against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Sunrise's 17 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.
