Where Laurel's grants concentrate

Laurel Machinery Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 5 CPC subclasses with 72.7% of grants classified under G07D (HANDLING OF COINS OR VALUABLE PAPERS, e.g. TESTING, SORTING BY DENOMINATIONS, COUNTING, DISPENSING, CHANGING OR DEPOSITING). By volume, Laurel sits between Lakehead University and LEN TECH Inc..

Laurel's three-year grant acceleration

Laurel Machinery Co., Ltd. shows 4 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.
