Huawei Technologies Co broke into the top 10 recipients of US patents last year, according to an analysis of filings with the US Patent and Trademark Office, the latest sign that Chinese companies are aggressive in pursuing the US lead in global technology.

The telecom company’s 2,418 patents, along with 2,177 new patents issued to display-screen maker BOE Technology Group, helped propel China into the rank of fourth-biggest recipient of US patents, behind Japan and South Korea but ahead of Germany for the first time, according to the analysis by Fairview Research’s IFI Claims Patent Services.
