Where Kinugawa's grants concentrate

Kinugawa Rubber IND. Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 80% of grants classified under B60J (Windows, Windscreens, Non-fixed Roofs, Doors, OR Similar Devices FOR VEHICLES; Removable External Protective Coverings Specially Adapted FOR Vehicles). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Kinugawa sits between Kimtron, Inc. and Kizzang LLC.

Kinugawa's three-year grant acceleration

Kinugawa Rubber IND. Co., Ltd. shows 2 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.
