Does more volume mean deeper claims for Ichor?

Each dot is one of Ichor’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). Ichor’s own 23.7 claims/patent is ABOVE the 16.9 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Ichor's grants concentrate

Ichor Medical Systems, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A61N (ELECTROTHERAPY; MAGNETOTHERAPY; Radiation THERAPY; Ultrasound Therapy). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Ichor sits between Iyuntian Co., Ltd. and Ignite Technologies, Inc..

Ichor's three-year grant acceleration

Ichor Medical Systems, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
