What this shows Rancilio's Innovation Score is 32.6/100 (42nd percentile 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 Rancilio?

Each dot is one of Rancilio’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). Rancilio’s own 12.3 claims/patent is at or below the 16.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Rancilio's grants concentrate

Rancilio Group S.P.A. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 86.7% of grants classified under A47J (Kitchen EQUIPMENT; Coffee MILLS; Spice MILLS; Apparatus FOR Making Beverages). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Rancilio sits between Quickthree Technology, LLC and Reemtsma Cigarettenfabriken GmbH.

Rancilio's three-year grant acceleration

Rancilio Group S.P.A. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
