Does more volume mean deeper claims for Senju?
Each dot is one of Senju’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). Senju’s own 6.4 claims/patent is at or below the 13.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Senju's grants concentrate
Senju Sprinkler Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 38.9% of grants classified under A62C (Fire-fighting). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (9 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Senju sits between Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science and Sogang University Research & Business Development Foundation.
Senju's three-year grant acceleration
Senju Sprinkler Co., Ltd. shows 13 grants in 2022–2024 against only 9 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.
