Does more volume mean deeper claims for Kaba?

Each dot is one of Kaba’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). Kaba’s own 11.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 10.8 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Kaba's grants concentrate

Kaba GALLENSCHÜTZ GMBH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 60% of grants classified under G07C (Time OR Attendance REGISTERS; Registering OR Indicating THE Working OF MACHINES; Generating Random NUMBERS; Voting OR Lottery APPARATUS; Arrangements, Systems OR Apparatus FOR Checking NOT Provided FO). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Kaba sits between K. Hartwell Oy Ab and Kalita Co., Ltd..

Kaba's three-year grant acceleration

Kaba GALLENSCHÜTZ GMBH shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
