Where Burley's grants concentrate

Burley Design LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 88.9% of grants classified under B62K (CYCLES; Cycle FRAMES; Cycle Steering DEVICES; Rider-operated Terminal Controls Specially Adapted FOR CYCLES; Cycle Axle SUSPENSIONS; Cycle Side-cars, Forecars, OR THE Like). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Burley sits between Buff and Shine Mfg. Inc and C2Sense, Inc..

Burley's three-year grant acceleration

Burley Design LLC shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
