Does more volume mean deeper claims for Kimura?
Each dot is one of Kimura’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). Kimura’s own 2.9 claims/patent is at or below the 12.4 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Kimura's grants concentrate
Kimura Kohki Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 28% of grants classified under F24F (AIR-CONDITIONING; AIR-HUMIDIFICATION; VENTILATION; USE OF AIR Currents FOR Screening). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (10 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Kimura sits between Jushi Group Co., Ltd. and KWS Saat SE.
Kimura's three-year grant acceleration
Kimura Kohki Co., Ltd. shows 2 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.
