What this shows Vilter's Innovation Score is 31.6/100 (38th 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 Vilter?

Each dot is one of Vilter’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). Vilter’s own 13.9 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Vilter's grants concentrate

Vilter Manufacturing LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 57.1% 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 2022 (3 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2015. By volume, Vilter sits between Viking Life-Saving Equipment A/S and Violet Defense Technology, Inc..

Vilter's three-year grant acceleration

Vilter Manufacturing LLC shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
