What this shows Nissin's Innovation Score is 49.3/100 (top 15% 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 Nissin?

Each dot is one of Nissin’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). Nissin’s own 9.3 claims/patent is at or below the 14.0 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Nissin's grants concentrate

Nissin Electric Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 24 CPC subclasses with 38.7% of grants classified under H01J (Electric Discharge Tubes OR Discharge Lamps). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (7 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Nissin sits between Movius Interactive Corporation and National Service Alliance—Houston LLC.

Nissin's three-year grant acceleration

Nissin Electric Co., Ltd. shows 13 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
