Does more volume mean deeper claims for A.?
Each dot is one of A.’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). A.’s own 15.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 9.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
How A.'s grant cadence moved
Between 2020–2024, A. Raymond ET CIE received 90 grants versus 60 in 2015–2019 (+50% equal-window velocity, above median growth). Across complete PatentsView years, output peaked in 2024 at 22 grants and bottomed in 2018 at 8. Lead class F16B accounts for 43.6% of the portfolio across 75 subclasses. Volume neighbours: Stradvision, Inc. (#2,364) and Horiba Stec, Co., Ltd. (#2,372).
A.'s three-year grant acceleration
From 2019–2021 to 2022–2024, A. Raymond ET CIE moved from 40 to 62 grants (1.55x the prior three-year total, a multiple, not a CAGR). Among 3,296 tracked assignees with ≥100 grants and ≥20 prior-period grants, that multiple ranks #410. See the growth leaderboard.
