Company patents
Tiger Tool International Incorporated
Tiger Tool International Incorporated's patent strategy is surprisingly concentrated, with Hand Tools making up 57.8% of its portfolio and Bearings & Shafts another 37.8%, yet its patenting in Bearings & Shafts saw a significant decline of -100.0% so far in 2026 after a 60.0% YoY growth in 2025, while it shows a nascent interest in Vehicle Seats & Accommodations and Fasteners with one patent each so far in 2026, after no activity in previous years.

Tools and systems engineered for the precise installation, removal, or manipulation of specific components or fasteners, often involving specialized gripping, depth control, or extraction mechanisms.
Design and integration of bearings within larger mechanical systems or devices, focusing on mounting structures, housing, endplay management, and overall assembly for specific applications.
Design and optimization of the mechanical components and power transmission systems within powered hand tools, including motors, gears, spindles, and impact mechanisms, for efficiency, durability, and compact form factor.
Utilization of heat pump cycles, often with natural refrigerants, for efficient heating and cooling of the vehicle cabin and/or thermal conditioning of high-voltage components like battery modules.
Bearings that utilize a pressurized gas or liquid film to create a non-contact support surface, reducing friction and wear, often incorporating specific flow restriction or airfoil designs.
Focuses on novel circuit configurations for DC-DC, DC-AC, or AC-DC conversion, often involving resonant operation, multi-level structures, or switched capacitors to improve efficiency, power density, or voltage conversion ratios.
Design and assembly of power conversion, distribution, and protection modules, focusing on compact form factors, efficient electrical connections, and robust protective measures for electronic systems, often in high-power applications.
Design principles and connection methods that facilitate the easy assembly, disassembly, reconfiguration, or integration of functional modules and components in furniture systems.
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.
Design elements and integrated components that improve the usability, comfort, and versatility of hand tools, such as built-in lighting, vibration reduction, modular storage, or adjustable form factors.
Mechanical assemblies designed to enable controlled rotational movement between components, often incorporating locking features, speed reduction, or eccentric adjustments for precise positioning.
Systems designed to manage the temperature of multiple components in electric or hybrid vehicles, such as batteries, electric motors, power electronics, and the passenger cabin, often using shared or interconnected cooling/heating circuits.
Engineering and diagnostic aspects of individual heating, ventilation, and air conditioning components, such as PTC heaters, air ducts, flow control valves, and compressor monitoring.
Advanced systems for maintaining passenger comfort and air quality within the vehicle cabin, including features like condensation prevention, remote control, after-blow functions, and air purification.
Mechanisms allowing for changes in the length, height, angle, or position of a support frame or component, often using sliding, rotating, or telescoping elements to achieve desired configurations.
