What this shows Shenzhen's Innovation Score is 52.3/100 (top 10% 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 Shenzhen?

Each dot is one of Shenzhen’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). Shenzhen’s own 10.1 claims/patent is at or below the 15.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Shenzhen's grants concentrate

Shenzhen Relx Technology Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 52.4% of grants classified under A24F (Smokers' REQUISITES; Match BOXES; Simulated Smoking Devices). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (23 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2023. By volume, Shenzhen sits between Schott Pharma Schweiz AG and State Grid Jiangsu Electric Power Co. Ltd..

Shenzhen's three-year grant acceleration

Shenzhen Relx Technology Co., Ltd. shows 31 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.
