DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0063] In order to ensure adjustment stability of a LED light source, reduce the number of adjustment mechanisms, simplify the product design structure, reduce the cost, and facilitate for users to use, this embodiment provides an adjustment mechanism as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. The adjustment mechanism includes a left adjustment screw 1, a stop block 2 threadedly connected with the left adjustment screw 1, and a right adjustment screw 3. The adjustment mechanism further includes a sliding block 5 provided with a transverse sliding groove 4 at a side surface of a front end thereof, a transverse mounting block 7 having an LED chip module mounting seat 6 mounted at a top portion of a rear end thereof, and a wedge-shaped block 8. A right end portion of the transverse mounting block 7 is provided with a limiting pin 9 and a spiral reset spring 10 sleeved on the limiting pin 9. The transverse mounting block 7 is assembled in the transverse sliding groove 4, and the spiral reset spring 10 is placed between the limiting pin 9 and a right stopping plate 11 of the transverse sliding groove 4 (i.e., a stopping plate at a right end of the transverse sliding block). A left end of the transverse mounting block 7 extends out of the transverse sliding groove 4 and abuts against the stop block 2. A bottom surface of the sliding block 5 is provided with an inclined surface portion 16 which may slide relatively parallel to an inclined surface of the wedge-shaped block 8 as shown in FIG. 3, so that the transverse sliding block may move upward or downward when the wedge-shaped block 8 moves leftward and rightward, in this way, a LED chip module mounting seat 6 placed on a top surface of the sliding block 5 moves rightward and upward, or moves leftward and downward (based on a direction as shown in FIG. 2, that is, “leftward” refers to a direction towards a left hand side in FIG. 2 from an observer, and “upward” refers to a direction towards the top in FIG. 2), so that the LED chip can be adjusted rightward and upward or leftward and downward slightly, and the fine adjustment of the pitch angle and left-and-right angle of the emission light of the LED chip can be completed synchronously.

[0064] The right adjustment screw 3 is threadedly connected with a vertical side surface of the wedge-shaped block 8 to push and pull the wedge-shaped block 8. That is, the right adjustment screw 3 is generally fixedly mounted on a housing of the inner red dot sight, and when the right adjustment screw 3 rotates clockwise and counterclockwise, the wedge-shaped block 8 may be pushed or pulled leftward or rightward. This is a basic principle of turbo-worm.

[0065] In order to realize the fine synchronous adjustment of the pitch angle and the left-and-right angle of the emission light of the LED chip (LED lamp), in this embodiment, a mounting groove 17 for mounting the LED chip module mounting seat 6 as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 is arranged at the top portion of the sliding block 5, and two spring mounting holes 12 which are uniformly arranged are provided on a top surface of the sliding block 5 on each of two sides of the mounting groove 17, and each of the spring mounting holes 12 is configured to assemble a vertical spiral spring 13 which may be reset upward and downward. It can be seen from FIG. 2 that an extending surface of the mounting groove 17 at its front end is communicated with the transverse sliding groove 4, so that the LED chip module mounting seat 6 can be mounted in the mounting groove 17 while the sliding block 5 is assembled in the transverse sliding groove 4, so that the fine synchronous adjustment of the up-and-down (i.e., vertical) position and the left-and-right (i.e., horizontal) position of the LED lamp can be achieved only by the left adjustment screw 1, the stop block 2, the spiral reset spring 10, the right adjustment screw 3, the wedge-shaped block 8 and the vertical spiral spring 13. Mainly due to the cooperation of the wedge-shaped block 8 and the inclined surface of the inclined surface portion 16, the up-and-down position adjustment can be completed under the cooperation of the vertical spiral spring 13 as moving horizontally.

[0066] In order to eliminate an adjustment gap and ensure stability of the adjustment process, in this embodiment, a first spring ejector pin 14 placed below the LED chip module mounting seat 6 is arranged between a rear side surface of the transverse mounting block 7 and a side wall of the transverse sliding groove 4, and a first steel ball of the first spring ejector pin 14 abuts against the rear side surface of the transverse mounting block 7. At the same time, two second spring ejector pins 15, which are uniformly distributed transversely, are provided between a bottom surface of the transverse mounting block 7 and a bottom surface of the transverse sliding groove 4, and a second steel ball of the second spring ejector pin 15 abuts against the bottom surface of the transverse sliding groove 4.

[0067] FIGS. 5, 6 and 7 show an inner red dot sight with the aforementioned adjustment mechanism, which includes a base 18. A rear end of the base 18 is provided with a mounting cavity 19 of the adjustment mechanism. A rear end of the mounting cavity 19 is provided with an L-shaped fixing seat 20 as shown in FIG. 2, and a front end portion of the seat portion 21 of the L-shaped fixing seat 20 is provided with a connecting lug 22 to be threadedly connected with a bottom surface of the base 18 through screw(s). The adjustment mechanism is placed on the seat portion 21. At least four third spring ejector pins 24, which are uniformly arranged, are provided between a front side surface of a vertical stopping plate portion 23 of the L-shaped fixing seat 20 and a rear side surface of the sliding block 5, and a third steel ball of the third spring ejector pin 24 abuts against the rear side surface of the sliding block 5.

[0068] FIG. 4 shows a structural sectional view of the first spring ejector pin 14, the second spring ejector pin 15 and the third spring ejector pin 24, each of which consists of a tubular stopping cap 25, a steel ball 26 having an outer diameter larger than an inner diameter of a port at one end of the tubular stopping cap 25 and placed inside the port, and a spiral spring 27 having one end abutting against the steel ball 26 and the other end extending out of the other end of the tubular stopping cap 25. A part of the steel ball 26 may extend beyond the tubular stopping cap 25.

[0069] As above described, in this present disclosure, the transverse mounting block 7 provided with a LED lamp is assembled in the sliding block 5, and the LED chip module mounting seat 6 integrally connected with the top portion of the rear end of the transverse mounting block 7 is assembled in the mounting groove 17 at the top portion of the sliding block 5, so that the synchronous fine adjustment of the up-and-down position and the left-and-right position of the LED lamp can be realized under the cooperation of the left adjustment screw 1, the stop block 2, the spiral reset spring 10, the right adjustment screw 3, the wedge-shaped block 8 and the vertical spiral spring 13, and the first spring ejector pin 14, the second spring ejector pin 15 and the third spring ejector pin 24 are provided to minimize or even eliminate the adjustment gap, ensure the stability of adjustment, and the structure becomes compact to reduce a volume of the inner red dot sight.

[0070] In order to opening the protective cover for protecting an eyepiece or an objective lens quickly, each of the eyepiece and the objective lens of the inner red dot sight provided by this embodiment is provided with a protective cover assembly as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9. The protective cover assembly includes a window frame element 29 with a protective glass 28, a lower end of the window frame element 29 is provided with two connecting hole elements 30 opposite to each other. The vertical portion 31 of a T-shaped connector is placed between the two connecting hole elements 30, a perforation in the vertical portion 31 and a perforation in the connecting hole element 30 are coaxial with each other and have the same pore diameter, and a connecting rotating shaft 32 penetrates into the perforations on the connecting hole element 30 and the vertical portion 31. A torsion spring 33 is provided on either end of the connecting rotating shaft 32, and the window frame element 29 rotates to a direction away from the eyepiece or the objective lens relative to the vertical portion 31, so that after a buckle 36 arranged at the top portion of the window frame element 29 is manually unlocked, the window frame element 29 in the protective cover assembly rotates together with the protective glass 28 downward outside the eyepiece and the objective lens, so that the eyepiece and the objective lens are exposed outside and may be used conveniently. A straight portion 34 of the T-shaped connector is provided with a screw hole 35 at a position thereof placed below the connecting hole element 30, and is fixed on the housing of the inner red dot sight below the eyepiece and the objective lens by screws 37, so as to support and connect with the window frame element 29.
