What this shows Beijing's Innovation Score is 32.8/100 (42nd percentile 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 Beijing?

Each dot is one of Beijing’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). Beijing’s own 9.4 claims/patent is at or below the 17.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Beijing's grants concentrate

Beijing Kohler Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 27.6% of grants classified under E03C (Domestic Plumbing Installations FOR Fresh Water OR Waste Water ; Sinks). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (11 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Beijing sits between Avails Medical, Inc. and Bionano Genomics, Inc..

Beijing's three-year grant acceleration

Beijing Kohler Ltd. shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 18 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.
