What this shows Beacon's Innovation Score is 35.4/100 (top 49% 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 Beacon?

Each dot is one of Beacon’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). Beacon’s own 4.1 claims/patent is at or below the 6.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Beacon's grants concentrate

Beacon Lighting International Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 11.1% of grants classified under F04D (Non-positive-displacement Pumps). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Beacon sits between Banyan Biomarkers, Inc. and Beijing Orion Star Technology Co., Ltd..

Beacon's three-year grant acceleration

Beacon Lighting International Limited shows 8 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
