What this shows K&h's Innovation Score is 21.9/100 (9th percentile 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 K&h?

Each dot is one of K&h’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). K&h’s own 3.8 claims/patent is at or below the 8.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where K&h's grants concentrate

K&H Manufacturing LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 25% of grants classified under A01K (Animal HUSBANDRY; AVICULTURE; APICULTURE; PISCICULTURE; FISHING; Rearing OR Breeding Animals, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR; NEW Breeds OF Animals). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (8 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, K&h sits between Je Matadi, Inc. and KK Wind Solutions A/S.

K&h's three-year grant acceleration

K&H Manufacturing LLC shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 11 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.
