Across all tracked assignees
USPTO PatentsView assignee record — 174 granted patents across 49 technology areas, active 2015–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: H02K (DYNAMO-ELECTRIC MACHINES).
VALEO EQUIPEMENTS ELECTRIQUES MOTEUR has been granted 174 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing VALEO EQUIPEMENTS ELECTRIQUES MOTEUR at rank #2,259 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 49 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 15.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in H02K (DYNAMO-ELECTRIC MACHINES). As a Foreign Corporation, VALEO EQUIPEMENTS ELECTRIQUES MOTEUR is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 56.0/100 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 61 grants, compared with 113 in the 2015–2019 window — a -46% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The Foreign 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. VALEO EQUIPEMENTS ELECTRIQUES MOTEUR's 15.3 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 49 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark VALEO EQUIPEMENTS ELECTRIQUES MOTEUR against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
