What this shows Guangdong's Innovation Score is 37.9/100 (top 42% 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 Guangdong?

Each dot is one of Guangdong’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). Guangdong’s own 8.7 claims/patent is at or below the 13.0 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Guangdong's grants concentrate

Guangdong Midea Consumer Electric Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 52.6% of grants classified under A47J (Kitchen EQUIPMENT; Coffee MILLS; Spice MILLS; Apparatus FOR Making Beverages). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (10 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Guangdong sits between Gemmy Industries Corporation and Godinger Silver Art Ltd..

Guangdong's three-year grant acceleration

Guangdong Midea Consumer Electric Manufacturing Co., Ltd. shows 16 grants in 2022–2024 against only 12 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.
