Does more volume mean deeper claims for Dana?
Each dot is one of Dana’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). Dana’s own 16.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Dana's grants concentrate
Dana Italia S.R.L. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 35 CPC subclasses with 52.7% of grants classified under F16H (Gearing). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (23 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2020. By volume, Dana sits between Canoo Technologies Inc. and Evalve, Inc..
Dana's three-year grant acceleration
Dana Italia S.R.L. shows 52 grants in 2022–2024 against only 11 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.
