Does more volume mean deeper claims for Legrand?

Each dot is one of Legrand’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). Legrand’s own 20.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 18.3 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Legrand's grants concentrate

Legrand DPC, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 16 CPC subclasses with 44.4% of grants classified under H01R (Electrically-conductive CONNECTIONS; Structural Associations OF A Plurality OF Mutually-insulated Electrical Connecting ELEMENTS; Coupling DEVICES; Current Collectors). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (7 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2023. By volume, Legrand sits between Larry D. Miller Trust and Little Caesar Enterprises, Inc..

Legrand's three-year grant acceleration

Legrand DPC, LLC shows 9 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.
