Locking adjustment device
A locking adjustment device for adjusting a setting of an aimed optical device, such as a riflescope, locks at a home or baseline position to provide expedient feedback regarding an adjustment position of the adjustable setting. The device includes a knob mountable for rotation about a rotational axis when the adjustment device is installed on the aimed optical device, where the knob is rotatable about the rotational axis. The device further includes a catch that automatically locks the knob in the home or baseline position and prevents further rotation of the knob until the catch is released. A lock-release mechanism carried by the knob is manually actuable to disengage the catch and allow the knob to be manually rotated away from the locked position.

Open frame reflex pivot mechanics
A reflex sight to sight a weapon, such as a firearm, comprises a frame carried by a base. The frame carries a mirror and an illumination source, such as an LED, spaced-apart and in a fixed relationship with respect to one another with the illumination source directed towards the mirror at a fixed orientation. A spindle is carried by the frame and disposed between the frame and the base about which an orientation of the frame with respect to the base is adjusted. The spindle has a vertical shaft extending between the base and the frame, with the frame capable of swiveling horizontally on the vertical shaft to adjust for azimuth. The spindle also has a horizontal axle extending between the vertical shaft and the frame, with the frame vertically pivotal on the horizontal axle to adjust for elevation.
Weapon system with multi-function single-view scope
Certain aspects of a novel weapon sight system combine a direct view, a visible light video view, and an infrared (IR) video view mode. Each of the view modes may be viewed individually or simultaneously with one or more of the other view modes through a single viewing aperture. Further, the one or more view-modes may be provided while providing a bore-sighted reticle superimposed on the selected view. Further, the reticle may be powered separately from the video view electronics enabling use of the reticle regardless of the power status video view electronics.
SIGHT DEVICE FOR A FIREARM, IN PARTICULAR FOR A HANDGUN
A sight device for a firearm having a base, a sight arm, a rear sight slide, and at least one rear sight piece having a rear sight. The sight arm engages the base and is pivotable in a pivot direction relative thereto about a pivot axis. The rear sight slide, arranged proximate a free end of the sight arm, is displaceable relative to the sight axis and the pivot direction relative to the sight arm, and is fixed on the sight arm in an adjusted setting position. The rear sight slide includes a receptacle with retaining structures for removably engaging the rear sight piece. A latch section of a spring-loaded latch piece on the rear sight slide engages in a latch receiver on the rear sight piece when the rear sight piece is inserted into the receptacle and holds the rear sight piece in a fixed position.
SELF-ADAPTIVE BRIGHTNESS ADJUSTMENT CIRCUIT AND SOLAR RED DOT SIGHT
A solar inner red dot sight, includes a body, a power supply and a solar cell arranged on the body, a control circuit board and an LED light-emitting chip arranged on or in the body, a photoelectric sensor arranged on a side of the LED light-emitting chip, wherein the photoelectric sensor is used to collect illuminance signals of a shooting target or surroundings thereof target; the control circuit board obtains power supplied to the LED light-emitting chip according to the signals of the solar cell and the illuminance signals of the photoelectric sensor, and compares the power with the solar energy, when the solar energy is less than the power energy, the control circuit board turns on the power supply to power the LED light-emitting chip; or when the solar signal is strong, the LED light emitting chip is powered by the solar cell only.
