Does more volume mean deeper claims for Trelleborg?
Each dot is one of Trelleborg’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). Trelleborg’s own 7.6 claims/patent is at or below the 11.0 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Trelleborg's grants concentrate
Trelleborg Wheel Systems Italia S.P.A. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under B60C (Vehicle TYRES; Tyre INFLATION; Tyre CHANGING; Connecting Valves TO Inflatable Elastic Bodies IN GENERAL; Devices OR Arrangements Related TO Tyres). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Trelleborg sits between Toshiba Elevator Kabushiki Kaisha and Tyratech, Inc..
Trelleborg's three-year grant acceleration
Trelleborg Wheel Systems Italia S.P.A. shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
