What this shows Flowserve's Innovation Score is 62.3/100 (top 2% 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 Flowserve?

Each dot is one of Flowserve’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). Flowserve’s own 17.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 15.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Flowserve's grants concentrate

Flowserve Pte. Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 31 CPC subclasses with 43.8% of grants classified under F16K (VALVES; TAPS; COCKS; ACTUATING-FLOATS; Devices FOR Venting OR Aerating). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (14 grants) versus a trough of 11 in 2024. By volume, Flowserve sits between Foss Analytical A/S and Grob-werke GmbH & Co. KG.

Flowserve's three-year grant acceleration

Flowserve Pte. Ltd. shows 25 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
