What this shows Thinxxs Microtechnology Gmbh stamps GRANTS-SMALL, MID-PACK, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-FOCUS, INNOV-THIN, CLAIMS-RICH, TYPE-FRNCORP, VEL-UP, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #12,713 of 50,000; Innovation Score 37.6/100 sits in the top 43% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Teledyne FLIR Detection, Inc. (±0 grants).
Thinxxs Microtechnology Gmbh has been granted 24 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Thinxxs Microtechnology Gmbh at #12,713 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 11 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.8 claims per patent with primary concentration in B01L (CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL LABORATORY APPARATUS FOR GENERAL USE). As a Foreign Corporation, Thinxxs Microtechnology Gmbh is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Thinxxs sits between Teledyne FLIR Detection, Inc. (24 patents, rank #12,698) and TOWA Corporation (24 patents, rank #12,706) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 37.6/100 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 13 grants, compared with 11 in the 2015–2019 window, a +18% 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. Thinxxs Microtechnology Gmbh's 14.8 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 11 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
