Does more volume mean deeper claims for Cheng?
Each dot is one of Cheng’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). Cheng’s own 11.5 claims/patent is at or below the 17.5 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
How Cheng's grant cadence moved
Between 2020–2024, Cheng UEI Precision Industry Co., Ltd. received 131 grants versus 139 in 2015–2019 (-6% equal-window velocity, above median growth). Across complete PatentsView years, output peaked in 2015 at 39 grants and bottomed in 2024 at 14. Lead class H01R accounts for 39.8% of the portfolio across 76 subclasses. Volume neighbours: Dialog Semiconductor Inc. (#1,438) and Ajou University Industry-academic Cooperation (#1,446).
Cheng's three-year grant acceleration
From 2019–2021 to 2022–2024, Cheng UEI Precision Industry Co., Ltd. moved from 81 to 66 grants (0.81x the prior three-year total, a multiple, not a CAGR). Among 3,296 tracked assignees with ≥100 grants and ≥20 prior-period grants, that multiple ranks #1,788. See the growth leaderboard.
