Company patents
GRAMMER Aktiengesellschaft
GRAMMER Aktiengesellschaft's patent strategy is heavily concentrated in "Vehicle Seats & Accommodations," which accounts for 78.3% of its portfolio and saw a significant 142.9% YoY growth in 2024, indicating a strong and sustained focus despite a 35.3% decline in 2025 and a modest 9.1% increase so far in 2026. Surprisingly, categories like "Vehicle Steering & Bodies," "Vehicle Heating / Cooling," and "Gearing & Transmissions" have seen sharp declines, including 100% YoY drops in 2026 for all three, suggesting a shifting priority away from these areas.

Methods, tools, and component designs that facilitate the efficient and robust manufacturing, assembly, and attachment of vehicle seat structures, covers, and internal mechanisms.
Seat designs and mechanisms that allow for dynamic adjustment, folding, removal, or repositioning of seats or seat components to adapt to various passenger, cargo, or vehicle usage scenarios.
Integrated systems within vehicle seats that provide heating, cooling, ventilation, or air treatment (e.g., scenting) to enhance occupant comfort and well-being.
Non-core functionalities or convenience items directly integrated into or associated with vehicle seats, such as adjustable pillows, fitness devices, audio systems, or tray tables.
Technologies specifically designed for securing children in vehicles, including child safety seats, impact absorption features, and mechanisms to ensure correct installation or detect misuse.
Safety features built into or around vehicle seats to protect occupants during various accident scenarios, including airbags, pre-crash positioning, and blast attenuation.
Electronic, hydraulic, or steer-by-wire systems that precisely control vehicle direction, often incorporating feedback loops, compensation, and adaptation for various driving conditions or vehicle types.
Mechanisms that convert rotational input (typically from an electric motor) into precise linear output motion, often employing screw-nut assemblies, ball screws, or cam-follower systems for various applications.
Mechanical lock designs and components focused on resisting picking, unauthorized manipulation, forced entry, or other technical unlocking methods, often through complex internal mechanisms or robust materials.
Locks integrating electronic components for remote control, wireless communication, internet connectivity, and digital credential management, often including features for user identification and access monitoring.
Locking mechanisms specifically designed for automotive applications, recreational vehicles, or unique door types like bi-fold, sliding, or container doors, often incorporating specific safety, noise reduction, or operational features.
Technologies for safely and efficiently connecting, stabilizing, and maneuvering trailers, including hitch mechanisms, load sensing, and trailer-specific steering or stabilization.
Methods and components for converting power into mechanical motion to drive pump mechanisms, encompassing electric motors, hydraulic actuators, and specialized motion converters like ball screws or solenoids.
Systems and methods for detecting the presence, position, characteristics (e.g., weight, pressure, contact area), or state of vehicle occupants, often used for safety, comfort, or system control.
Systems designed for rapid and secure attachment and detachment of devices or components to a main support structure, often employing snap-fit, clamping, or magnetic mechanisms for convenience and flexibility.
