Does more volume mean deeper claims for Hensley?
Each dot is one of Hensley’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). Hensley’s own 18.4 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Hensley's grants concentrate
Hensley Industries, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 92% of grants classified under E02F (DREDGING; Soil-shifting). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Hensley sits between Hyosung Corporation and Homewerks Worldwide, LLC.
Hensley's three-year grant acceleration
Hensley Industries, Inc. shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 14 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.
