摘要:
Various embodiments described herein may include a rotatable assembly including a rotatable knob, the rotatable assembly further including: a collet or other body having capturing member(s) to at least partially surround or flank a spindle; and a grippable device usable to move the collet relative to the spindle to disengage the capturing member(s) from the spindle; wherein the knob and the spindle rotate together as a unit when the capturing member(s) are engaged to the spindle, and wherein the knob rotates relative to the spindle when the capturing member(s) are disengaged from the spindle. Other embodiments may be disclosed and/or claimed.

Various embodiments described herein may include one or more magnetic eyecups that both secure and align the optical axis of an input optical device (such as a smartphone camera) to an output optical device (such as binoculars, a spotting scope, rangefinders, a projectile weapon scope, or the like), through the use of magnets. Other embodiments may be disclosed and/or claimed.
摘要:
A reflex sight for a firearm has a body, a mounting facility, a controller, an actuator, and an illumination facility operably connected to the controller and having a plurality of different operating states. The controller is responsive to sequential actuation of the actuator to cycle among the operating states. The controller is operable to change operation of the illumination facility after a selected duration based on a power consumption characteristic of the operating state.

Rifle scopes with zero locks or stops have a body having an internal movable optical adjustor adapted to shift an image generated by the riflescope, a knob connected to the body for rotation about a knob axis and operably connected to the optical adjustor to position the optical adjustor based on a rotational position of the knob, an indicator skirt rotatably engaged to the body and threadedly engaged to the knob, the indicator skirt being operable to move axially with respect to the knob such that the axial position of the indicator skirt is based on the rotational position of the knob, and the knob including a knob stop surface and the indicator skirt including a skirt stop surface, wherein the knob stop surface and the skirt stop surface are configured to positively contact each other to establish a limit of rotational travel of the knob.

摘要:
Disclosed are techniques for determining an aiming adjustment amount, in terms of both vertical and horizontal aiming adjustments, to shoot a target at a target range by iteratively solving for the projectile trajectory (e.g., projectile drop or path and deflection) such that the iteratively calculated projectile trajectory is determined to pass through the target location within a predetermined threshold amount (e.g., at a projectile path calculation of about zero). Also disclosed are techniques for indicating whether a projectile has supersonic, transonic, or subsonic speed at a given range.

A reflex sight with multiple aiming marks has a body having a forward end extending in forward direction and an opposed rearward end extending in a rearward direction, a first optical element having a first concave surface facing in the rearward direction, the first concave surface having a first focal point, a second optical element having a second concave surface facing in the rearward direction, the second concave surface having a second focal point, a first emitter proximate the first focal point and spaced apart from the second focal point, a second emitter proximate the second focal point and spaced apart from the first focal point, and the first optical element being forward of the second optical element. The first and second emitters may both be rearward of the first and second optical elements. The second emitter may be spaced apart rearwardly from the first emitter.

A system for aiming a projectile weapon includes a telescopic sight for use with a second sighting device, such as a reflex sight or other non-magnifying sight. The telescopic sight has an eye point spaced apart rearwardly from its eyepiece and positioned at a vertical plane containing a line of initial trajectory of the weapon to which the aiming system is mounted so that a line parallel to the line of initial trajectory does not intersect the eyepiece. The location of the eye point facilitates concurrent use of a second sighting device at a normal mounting height and viewable past the eyepiece, thereby allowing the viewer to change views between the telescopic sight and the second sighting device with little eye movement and essentially no head movement.
摘要:
An illuminable reticle supporting multiple optical fibers includes an electroformed foil or wire reticle segment providing a primary aiming mark; a first optical fiber having a first end, the first optical fiber being adhered to and overlaying a lower portion of the segment to provide a first illuminable aiming point along the primary aiming mark when the first optical fiber emits light from its first end; and a second optical fiber having a second end, the second optical fiber being adhered to and overlaying a lower portion of the first optical fiber to provide a second illuminable aiming point parallel with and below the first illuminable aiming point when the second optical fiber emits light from its second end.
摘要:
A combination optical aiming device comprises a non-magnifying sight that includes an optic and a magnifying sight that includes an eyepiece and an objective. To reduce the vertical distance between viewing positions for the sights, the optic and the eye lens are truncated in order to position the optic predominately outside of a projection of a perimeter of the eye lens, the projection being parallel to the optical axis of the objective.
