What this shows Tuthill's Innovation Score is 31.9/100 (39th 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 Tuthill?

Each dot is one of Tuthill’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). Tuthill’s own 10.1 claims/patent is at or below the 14.6 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Tuthill's grants concentrate

Tuthill Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 38.5% of grants classified under F04C (Rotary-piston, OR Oscillating-piston, Positive-displacement Machines FOR Liquids ; Rotary-piston, OR Oscillating-piston, Positive-displacement Pumps). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Tuthill sits between Troy Industries, Inc. and U.S. Pole Company, Inc..

Tuthill's three-year grant acceleration

Tuthill Corporation shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
