What this shows HJC's Innovation Score is 27.8/100 (25th 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 HJC?

Each dot is one of HJC’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). HJC’s own 3.2 claims/patent is at or below the 12.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where HJC's grants concentrate

HJC Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 1 CPC subclasses with 17.1% of grants classified under A42B (HATS; Head Coverings). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (10 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, HJC sits between Global Technology Co., Ltd and Hansen Medical, Inc..

HJC's three-year grant acceleration

HJC Corporation shows 12 grants in 2022–2024 against only 8 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.
