What this shows Advance's Innovation Score is 43.8/100 (top 27% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Advance?

Each dot is one of Advance’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). Advance’s own 11.0 claims/patent is at or below the 18.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Advance's grants concentrate

Advance Denki Kogyo Kabushiki Kaisha is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 71.4% of grants classified under F16K (VALVES; TAPS; COCKS; ACTUATING-FLOATS; Devices FOR Venting OR Aerating). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Advance sits between Admap Inc. and Aegis Medical Innovations Inc..

Advance's three-year grant acceleration

Advance Denki Kogyo Kabushiki Kaisha shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
