Where Wheelright's grants concentrate

WheelRight Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 10 CPC subclasses with 42.9% of grants classified under B60C (Vehicle TYRES; Tyre INFLATION; Tyre CHANGING; Connecting Valves TO Inflatable Elastic Bodies IN GENERAL; Devices OR Arrangements Related TO Tyres). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2024. By volume, Wheelright sits between Wenger Corporation and Wilian Holding Co..

Wheelright's three-year grant acceleration

WheelRight Limited 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.
