Portfolio overview

Technical Consumer Products, Inc. has been granted 29 US utility patents between 2015 and 2023, placing Technical Consumer Products, Inc. at #10,780 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 21 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in F21V (FUNCTIONAL FEATURES OR DETAILS OF LIGHTING DEVICES OR SYSTEMS THEREOF; STRUCTURAL COMBINATIONS OF LIGHTING DEVICES WITH OTHER ARTICLES, NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR). As a US Corporation, Technical Consumer Products, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Technical sits between Trico Belgium S.a. (29 patents, rank #10,787) and The Procter & Gamble Plaza (29 patents, rank #10,795) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 40.6/100 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 22 in the 2015–2019 window, a -68% 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. Technical Consumer Products, Inc.'s 19.9 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 21 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.

Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

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.
