SENSING AND ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM
A sensing and adjustment system for a telescopic sight includes a plurality of sensing portions, a plurality of driving portions and a central controlling portion respectively fixed to a main body of the telescopic sight, a setting portion, a displaying portion, a plurality of fixing portions, a plurality of transmitting portions each fixed to a corresponding adjusting knob. Each sensing portion includes an angle position sensor and a gear and is configured to perceive a rotation angle of the corresponding adjusting knob and then transmitted to the central controlling portion. The fixing portion fixes the sensing portions and driving portions to the main body and close to their corresponding adjusting knob so that the gear of the sensing portions and driving portions is meshed with a corresponding gear of the transmitting portion. The central controlling portion can calculate an adjusting quantity of each adjusting knob according to setting data set by the setting portion and angle data perceived by the sensing portion and simultaneously drive the driving portion to automatically adjust the corresponding adjusting knob via the transmitting portion according to a received objective adjusting quantity.

CARTRIDGE BASED MODULAR TURRET CONTROL SYSTEM
Apparatus and associated methods relate to a modular cartridge turret assembly system for quickly exchanging modular cartridges to interact with a ring gear. A modular cartridge may be a brake cartridge, which when inserted into a modular cartridge turret assembly, operably engages with the ring gear to inhibit the rotation of a turret. In an illustrative example, the brake cartridge, when inserted, may prevent damages and injuries caused by the rotation of the turret during transportation. In an exemplary embodiment, the modular cartridge turret assembly system may include a locking mechanism to secure the modular cartridge within the modular cartridge turret assembly. The locking mechanism may safeguard that the brake cartridge remains within the modular cartridge turret assembly system during turbulent situations caused by environmental conditions.

METHOD AND BACK-UP AIMING CONTROL UNIT FOR OPERATING A BACK-UP AIMING SYSTEM FOR AN ARTILLERY DEVICE, ARTILLERY DEVICE AND VEHICLE
A method of operating a back-up aiming system for an artillery device having at least one back-up aiming drive unit and an artillery unit for a vehicle. The back-up aiming system is operated at least in the event of a failure of a main aiming system of the artillery device. An activation signal is provided to an interface to a back-up aiming electronics unit, the activation signal being configured to activate the back-up aiming system. A setpoint signal is read via an interface to a detection device, wherein an alignment signal with a setpoint speed and/or a setpoint torque with respect to a movement of the artillery device is calculated and set from the setpoint signal of the at least one back-up aiming drive unit. At least one alignment signal is outputted for aligning the at least one back-up aiming drive unit after the step of reading.

Battery-powered motor unit
The technology disclosed herein can include a motor unit having a motor with a motor gear to rotate a drive shaft and a drive gear. A manual input shaft can also be configured to transmit rotation to the drive shaft. The motor can have a central axis that forms an angle of less than 90 degrees with a plane substantially defined by an outer surface of a gear box coupled to the motor. A mounting bracket is configured to allow mechanical communication between the motor unit and an internal ring gear. The internal ring gear can be mounted to a vehicle and a turret can be pivotably disposed within the internal ring gear. A motor unit is mounted on the turret and a drive gear is rotatably mounted on the motor unit and in direct engagement with the internal ring gear.
