What this shows Spraying's Innovation Score is 53.8/100 (top 8% 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 Spraying?

Each dot is one of Spraying’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). Spraying’s own 14.0 claims/patent is at or below the 17.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Spraying's grants concentrate

Spraying Systems Co. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 44 CPC subclasses with 74.2% of grants classified under B05B (Spraying APPARATUS; Atomising APPARATUS; Nozzles). Peak complete grant year is 2022 (10 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2016. By volume, Spraying sits between R.P. Scherer Technologies, LLC and Trek Bicycle Corporation.

Spraying's three-year grant acceleration

Spraying Systems Co. shows 21 grants in 2022–2024 against only 19 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.
