Does more volume mean deeper claims for Weihai?
Each dot is one of Weihai’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). Weihai’s own 7.3 claims/patent is at or below the 16.7 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.
Where Weihai's grants concentrate
Weihai Tuanzhong Transmission Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 3 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under F16H (Gearing). By volume, Weihai sits between Weatherford Switzerland Trading AND Development GMBH and Wemtec Inc..
Weihai's three-year grant acceleration
Weihai Tuanzhong Transmission Co., Ltd. shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 3 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.
