Where Friedrich's grants concentrate

Friedrich Air Conditioning, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 11.1% of grants classified under F25B (Refrigeration Machines, Plants OR SYSTEMS; Combined Heating AND Refrigeration SYSTEMS; Heat Pump Systems). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Friedrich sits between Freenome Holdings, Inc. and Fundacion Para La Investigacion Medica Aplicada.

Friedrich's three-year grant acceleration

Friedrich Air Conditioning, LLC shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
