What this shows THE's Innovation Score is 33.6/100 (45th percentile 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 THE?

Each dot is one of THE’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). THE’s own 21.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.5 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where THE's grants concentrate

THE Sure Chill Company Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under F25D (REFRIGERATORS; Cold ROOMS; ICE-BOXES; Cooling OR Freezing Apparatus NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, THE sits between THE Lightco Inc. and Thyssenkrupp System Engineering GMBH.

THE's three-year grant acceleration

THE Sure Chill Company Limited shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 4 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.
