Does more volume mean deeper claims for King?
Each dot is one of King’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). King’s own 1.3 claims/patent is at or below the 10.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where King's grants concentrate
King JIM Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 7.7% of grants classified under B42F (Sheets Temporarily Attached TOGETHER; Filing APPLIANCES; File CARDS; Indexing). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (9 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, King sits between Journey.ai and Korea National University OF Transportation INDUSTRY—ACADEMIC Cooperation Foundation.
King's three-year grant acceleration
King JIM Co., Ltd. shows 10 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.
