Does more volume mean deeper claims for Samhwa?
Each dot is one of Samhwa’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). Samhwa’s own 7.8 claims/patent is at or below the 15.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Samhwa's grants concentrate
Samhwa Co., Ltd is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 78.3% of grants classified under A45D (Hairdressing OR Shaving Equipment ; Equipment FOR Cosmetics OR Cosmetic Treatments, e.g. FOR Manicuring OR Pedicuring). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Samhwa sits between Roche Palo Alto LLC and Sensory, Incorporated.
Samhwa's three-year grant acceleration
Samhwa Co., Ltd shows 14 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.
