Where Yonex's grants concentrate

Yonex Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 2 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A63B (Apparatus FOR Physical Training, Gymnastics, Swimming, Climbing, OR FENCING; Ball GAMES; Training Equipment). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Yonex sits between Yamo Pharmaceuticals LLC and Yunnan Huapu Quantum Material Co., Ltd.

Yonex's three-year grant acceleration

Yonex Co., Ltd. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 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.
