Cobot Performance & Safety Testing Patent Snapshot 2026
The patent corpus for cobot performance and safety testing is extremely nascent, with a single patent family on record, filed in China in 2024, and concentrated entirely among two co-filing Chinese entities. The field represents a significant open space rather than a contested competitive arena, signaling that formal IP strategies in this domain are still in their earliest stages.
A single filer anchors a near-empty field
The cobot performance and safety testing evidence snapshot currently contains one patent family in scope, with Beijing Tianma Intelligent Control Technology Co Ltd and Beijing CCRI Tianma Automation Technology Co Ltd each holding one patent record — reflecting that both entities are co-applicants on the same filing.
Concentration is absolute: the top five filers collectively account for 100% of the ranked applicants visible in this query’ combined total, with the ranking effectively compressed to two related entities. There is no meaningful tier gap to analyze because no second tier yet exists.
| # | Applicant | Patent records | Share |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Beijing Tianma Intelligent Control Technology Co Ltd | 1 | |
| 2 | Beijing CCRI Tianma Automation Technology Co Ltd | 1 |
This level of concentration and near-zero corpus size indicates that no major cobot OEM, safety certification body, or academic institution has yet staked formal IP positions in this specific domain — leaving the evidence snapshot structurally open.
The most recent filing period is subject to standard patent-publication lag, so the 2024 filing and near-zero 2025–2026 counts should be interpreted as provisional rather than indicative of final activity levels. Longer-window growth, applicant concentration, and technology-route coverage are therefore more reliable signals than the latest-year bar alone.
A single 2024 filing marks the earliest recorded activity
Annual filing volume was zero across 2017–2023, with the sole patent record appearing in 2024. The technology composition spans several IPC classes, reflecting the cross-disciplinary nature of the filing rather than a diverse applicant base.
Annual filing trend
The trend line is flat at zero from 2017 through 2023, with one record appearing in 2024. The 2025 and 2026 bars should be treated as incomplete due to publication lag; the apparent return to zero does not indicate a contraction.

The single filing maps to seven IPC classes simultaneously — including B25J (manipulators and robots), G01B (length and dimension measurement), G01C (distance and navigation), G01R (electrical measurement), G08B (signalling and alarm systems), B07C (postal and object sorting), and B65G (conveying and material handling) — illustrating the integrative, multi-domain character of cobot testing systems.

Ranked by total forward citations. Citation counts favour older and broadly cited patent families, and broad or adjacent patents may appear when they match the search scope. Treat this section as citation context, not as a curated list of the most topic-specific patents. Some patent titles may be shown in their original, non-English language where an accurate translation could not be guaranteed.
Assignee snapshot from the current evidence set
The applicants below are visible in this query result. Because the evidence set is relatively small, read this section as a directional snapshot rather than a full competitive ranking.
Beijing Tianma Intelligent Control Technology Co Ltd
Holds one patent record as co-applicant, with a technology focus spanning B25J (manipulators and robots), B07C (postal and object sorting), and B65G (conveying and material handling). Momentum is characterized as a new entrant with no prior filing history in this domain. Its position as leader is a function of corpus size rather than sustained IP strategy.
patent records: 1Beijing CCRI Tianma Automation Technology Co Ltd
Also holds one patent record as co-applicant on the same filing, with an identical technology profile across B25J, B07C, and B65G. Momentum trend is likewise flagged as a new entrant. The distinction between leader and challenger is nominal given the shared filing.
patent records: 1Frequently asked questions
The current corpus contains one patent family in scope, filed in China in 2024. This reflects a nascent and largely unoccupied IP space globally.
Beijing Tianma Intelligent Control Technology Co Ltd and Beijing CCRI Tianma Automation Technology Co Ltd are the only ranked applicants, each with one patent record as co-filers on the same document. Both are new entrants with no prior-period baseline in this specific domain.
China is the only jurisdiction of record in the current corpus. No filings under PCT, EPO, USPTO, or other national offices appear in the evidence at this time.
The single patent record spans seven IPC classes: B25J (manipulators and robots), B07C (postal and object sorting), B65G (conveying and material handling), G01B (length and dimension measurement), G01C (distance, navigation and gyroscopes), G01R (electric and magnetic measurement), and G08B (signalling and alarm systems).
No lifecycle stage can be determined from the current evidence — the corpus is too small to support a trend classification. The sole filing appeared in 2024; 2025 and 2026 counts are subject to publication lag and should not be interpreted as a return to zero activity.
The entire field is structurally open outside China. Within the IPC classes present in the filing, G01R (electrical and magnetic measurement for safety verification) and G08B (signalling and alarm systems for incident detection) represent under-served adjacent branches with plausible technical relevance to cobot safety compliance requirements. No visible filer currently blocks entry in any major jurisdiction.

Patent data carries inherent limitations: recent filings (typically the most recent 18–24 months) are under-counted due to standard publication lag; counts may be reported at either a patent-family or a patent-record basis and are not always directly comparable; classification, applicant-name, and citation data may contain errors, duplicates, or omissions; and the underlying search query defines and constrains the scope shown.
