Does more volume mean deeper claims for Buckingham?

Each dot is one of Buckingham’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). Buckingham’s own 8.8 claims/patent is at or below the 18.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Buckingham's grants concentrate

Buckingham Manufacturing Company, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 58.8% of grants classified under A62B (Devices, Apparatus OR Methods FOR Life-saving). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Buckingham sits between Boomi, LP and CAO Group, Inc..

Buckingham's three-year grant acceleration

Buckingham Manufacturing Company, Inc. shows 13 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
