Does more volume mean deeper claims for KBI?
Each dot is one of KBI’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). KBI’s own 9.6 claims/patent is at or below the 14.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where KBI's grants concentrate
KBI Dongkook IND. Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 87.5% of grants classified under B60R (Vehicles, Vehicle Fittings, OR Vehicle Parts, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, KBI sits between Kapro Industries Ltd. and Kenna Security LLC.
KBI's three-year grant acceleration
KBI Dongkook IND. Co., Ltd. shows 7 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.
