Portfolio overview

Thorley Industries, Llc has been granted 44 US utility patents between 2015 and 2024, placing Thorley Industries, Llc at rank #7,492 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 18 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in A47D (FURNITURE SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR CHILDREN). As a US Corporation, Thorley Industries, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Thorley sits between Toyota Connected North America, Inc. (44 patents, rank #7,488) and Ulsan National Institute OF Science AND Technology (44 patents, rank #7,496) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 48.4/100 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 17 grants, compared with 27 in the 2015–2019 window, a -37% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. 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. Thorley Industries, Llc's 14.7 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 18 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Thorley Industries, Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
