Does more volume mean deeper claims for Ker-train?
Each dot is one of Ker-train’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). Ker-train’s own 14.6 claims/patent is ABOVE the 9.2 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.
Where Ker-train's grants concentrate
Ker-train Holdings Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 80% of grants classified under F16D (Couplings FOR Transmitting ROTATION; CLUTCHES; Brakes). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Ker-train sits between Kemflo (NANJING) Environmental Technology Co., Ltd. and Keygen Data LLC.
Ker-train's three-year grant acceleration
Ker-train Holdings Ltd. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
