Does more volume mean deeper claims for Schaltbau?

Each dot is one of Schaltbau’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). Schaltbau’s own 10.9 claims/patent is at or below the 15.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Schaltbau's grants concentrate

Schaltbau Gmbh is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 82.4% of grants classified under H01H (Electric SWITCHES; RELAYS; SELECTORS; Emergency Protective Devices). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Schaltbau sits between Sysnav and Searete LLC.

Schaltbau's three-year grant acceleration

Schaltbau Gmbh shows 3 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.
