What this shows Heimann's Innovation Score is 26.9/100 (22nd 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 Heimann?
Each dot is one of Heimann’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). Heimann’s own 14.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Heimann's grants concentrate
Heimann Sensor GmbH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G01J (Measurement OF Intensity, Velocity, Spectral Content, Polarisation, Phase OR Pulse Characteristics OF Infrared, Visible OR Ultraviolet LIGHT; COLORIMETRY; Radiation Pyrometry). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Heimann sits between Healthy Foods, LLC and Hengdian Group Tospo Lighting Co., Ltd..
Heimann's three-year grant acceleration
Heimann Sensor GmbH shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
