What this shows Japan's Innovation Score is 46.7/100 (top 20% 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 Japan?

Each dot is one of Japan’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). Japan’s own 11.0 claims/patent is at or below the 13.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Japan's grants concentrate

Japan Cash Machine Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 19 CPC subclasses with 66.7% of grants classified under G07D (Handling OF Coins OR Valuable Papers, e.g. Testing, Sorting BY Denominations, Counting, Dispensing, Changing OR Depositing). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (10 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Japan sits between Innocom Technology (SHENZHEN) Co., Ltd. and Kyosan Electric MFG. Co., Ltd..

Japan's three-year grant acceleration

Japan Cash Machine Co., Ltd. shows 24 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.
