Does more volume mean deeper claims for Top?
Each dot is one of Top’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). Top’s own 5.5 claims/patent is at or below the 11.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Top's grants concentrate
Top Vending Machine Electronics Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 16.7% of grants classified under B41J (TYPEWRITERS; Selective Printing Mechanisms, i.e. Mechanisms Printing Otherwise Than From A FORME; Correction OF Typographical Errors). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Top sits between Thika Holdings LLC and Tosk, Inc..
Top's three-year grant acceleration
Top Vending Machine Electronics Co., Ltd. shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
