Does more volume mean deeper claims for Ideal?
Each dot is one of Ideal’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). Ideal’s own 2.0 claims/patent is at or below the 9.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Ideal's grants concentrate
Ideal Fastener (GUANGDONG) Industries Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 10.3% of grants classified under A44B (Buttons, Pins, Buckles, Slide Fasteners, OR THE Like). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (11 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Ideal sits between Hint, Inc. and Ivantis, Inc..
Ideal's three-year grant acceleration
Ideal Fastener (GUANGDONG) Industries Ltd. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 15 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.
