F24B — Domestic Stoves OR Ranges FOR Solid Fuels

CPC subclass F24B — DOMESTIC STOVES OR RANGES FOR SOLID FUELS ; IMPLEMENTS FOR USE IN CONNECTION WITH STOVES OR RANGES — covers 409 US utility patents granted between 2015 and 2025 according to USPTO PatentsView records. This subclass sits within the broader CPC class F24 (HEATING; RANGES; VENTILATING), one of roughly 250 top-level technology categories in the Cooperative Patent Classification system jointly maintained by the USPTO and the European Patent Office. At the subclass level, four-character codes like F24B give the most practical resolution for tracking a specific technology domain without losing sight of adjacent filings. Every grant here has been classified by a USPTO examiner based on the technical disclosure in the patent specification.

The competitive landscape in F24B is shaped by 20 distinct companies actively filing in this space. Solo Brands, LLC leads with 29 patents, followed by Weber-Stephen Products LLC at 206 grants and Traeger Pellet Grills, LLC at 73. Concentration at the top of the leaderboard indicates whether this technology area is dominated by a handful of incumbents or fragmented across many filers — a useful signal for investors evaluating competitive moats and for product teams mapping freedom-to-operate risk.

Filing trajectory matters as much as static counts. The yearly series on this page plots grants from 2015 through 2025, highlighting whether innovation in F24B is accelerating, plateauing, or cooling. Technology areas with rising post-2020 activity often reflect emerging markets or new platform shifts, while declining filings can signal mature domains where incremental improvement has slowed. Researchers, licensing professionals, and competitive-intelligence teams use these patterns — together with the top-assignee distribution — to decide where to invest, where to license, and where to avoid entanglement. All counts on this page come directly from USPTO PatentsView and reflect US granted utility patents only.
