What this shows Qingdao's Innovation Score is 40.7/100 (top 35% 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 Qingdao?

Each dot is one of Qingdao’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). Qingdao’s own 16.8 claims/patent is at or below the 18.2 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Qingdao's grants concentrate

Qingdao SM Parker Golf Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A63B (Apparatus FOR Physical Training, Gymnastics, Swimming, Climbing, OR FENCING; Ball GAMES; Training Equipment). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Qingdao sits between Python4Fun, Inc. and Qpex Biopharma, Inc..

Qingdao's three-year grant acceleration

Qingdao SM Parker Golf Ltd. shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
