What this shows U-mhi's Innovation Score is 27.3/100 (top 77% 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.

Where U-mhi's grants concentrate

U-MHI Platech Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 81.8% of grants classified under B29C (SHAPING OR JOINING OF PLASTICS; SHAPING OF MATERIAL IN A PLASTIC STATE, NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR; AFTER-TREATMENT OF THE SHAPED PRODUCTS, e.g. REPAIRING). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (4 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, U-mhi sits between Truevision Systems, Inc. and UHDE HIGH Pressure Technologies Gmbh.

U-mhi's three-year grant acceleration

U-MHI Platech Co., Ltd. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 8 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.
