What this shows Lehigh's Innovation Score is 36.9/100 (top 45% 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 Lehigh?

Each dot is one of Lehigh’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). Lehigh’s own 18.2 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.0 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Lehigh's grants concentrate

Lehigh Technologies, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 18 CPC subclasses with 94.1% of grants classified under C08L (Compositions OF Macromolecular Compounds). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Lehigh sits between Lipotec, S.A. and Liberty Pumps, Inc..

Lehigh's three-year grant acceleration

Lehigh Technologies, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 7 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.
