Does more volume mean deeper claims for Asco?
Each dot is one of Asco’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). Asco’s own 12.8 claims/patent is at or below the 12.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Asco's grants concentrate
Asco, L.P. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under F15B (Systems Acting BY Means OF Fluids IN GENERAL; Fluid-pressure Actuators, e.g. SERVOMOTORS; Details OF Fluid-pressure Systems, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Asco sits between Aqua Membranes, Inc. and Atsens Co., Ltd..
Asco's three-year grant acceleration
Asco, L.P. shows 7 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
