Does more volume mean deeper claims for Triangle?

Each dot is one of Triangle’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). Triangle’s own 8.9 claims/patent is at or below the 20.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Triangle's grants concentrate

Triangle Brass Manufacturing Company, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 7 CPC subclasses with 70% of grants classified under E05B (LOCKS; Accessories THEREFOR; Handcuffs). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Triangle sits between Travel Tags, Inc. and Trombley Industries, LLC.

Triangle's three-year grant acceleration

Triangle Brass Manufacturing Company, Inc. shows 6 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
