What this shows Tong's Innovation Score is 19.2/100 (6th 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 Tong?

Each dot is one of Tong’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). Tong’s own 1.3 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 Tong's grants concentrate

Tong Yah Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 16.7% of grants classified under B60Q (Arrangement OF Signalling OR Lighting Devices, THE Mounting OR Supporting Thereof OR Circuits Therefor, FOR Vehicles IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Tong sits between Tolmar, Inc. and TopoTarget UK Limited.

Tong's three-year grant acceleration

Tong Yah Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
