What this shows Rhine's Innovation Score is 25.5/100 (18th 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 Rhine?

Each dot is one of Rhine’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). Rhine’s own 4.8 claims/patent is at or below the 20.1 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Rhine's grants concentrate

Rhine Electronic Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 11 CPC subclasses with 37.5% of grants classified under Y02B (Climate Change Mitigation Technologies Related TO Buildings, e.g. Housing, House Appliances OR Related End-user Applications). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, Rhine sits between Revcor, Inc. and Rhombus Systems.

Rhine's three-year grant acceleration

Rhine Electronic Co., Ltd. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
