What this shows Schroth's Innovation Score is 38.4/100 (top 41% 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 Schroth?

Each dot is one of Schroth’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). Schroth’s own 11.5 claims/patent is at or below the 16.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Schroth's grants concentrate

Schroth Safety Products GmbH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 18 CPC subclasses with 81.3% of grants classified under B60R (Vehicles, Vehicle Fittings, OR Vehicle Parts, NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Schroth sits between Salto, LLC and Seakr Engineering, LLC.

Schroth's three-year grant acceleration

Schroth Safety Products GmbH shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
