What this shows KSM's Innovation Score is 41.4/100 (top 33% 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 KSM?

Each dot is one of KSM’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). KSM’s own 5.2 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 KSM's grants concentrate

KSM Component Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 40% of grants classified under C04B (Lime, MAGNESIA; SLAG; CEMENTS; Compositions Thereof, e.g. Mortars, Concrete OR Like Building MATERIALS; Artificial Stone ; Ceramics ; REFRACTORIES; Treatment OF Natural Stone). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, KSM sits between Kotobuki Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and Kabushiki Kaisha Sangi.

KSM's three-year grant acceleration

KSM Component Co., Ltd. shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
