What this shows Chongqing's Innovation Score is 27.6/100 (24th 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 Chongqing?

Each dot is one of Chongqing’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). Chongqing’s own 15.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Chongqing's grants concentrate

Chongqing HKC Optoelectronics is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 77.8% of grants classified under G09G (Arrangements OR Circuits FOR Control OF Indicating Devices Using Static Means TO Present Variable Information). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Chongqing sits between Chef Software, Inc. and Christmas Northeast, Inc..

Chongqing's three-year grant acceleration

Chongqing HKC Optoelectronics shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 8 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.
