Description
FIELD OF INVENTION

The invention is related generally to an aiming sight reticle that is illuminated. More particularly, embodiments of the invention relate to an illuminated sight reticle for a firearm.


BACKGROUND

Optical aiming devices may be employed in to aid in aiming devices that require accurate direction or sighting, including for example, firearms, other projectile weapons, spotting scopes, and the like. Examples of such aiming devices known in the art may employ a sight to assist in the aiming of the device. Known sights may include lenses, reticles or both. A reticle may generally consist of indicia imposed on the user's field of view that assist with aiming and may include cross hairs, dots and the like.


The reticle, and the sight-assisting portion of the reticle in particular, may be illuminated in various colors. The reticle may be self-illuminated or ambient light powered. In known embodiments of such self-illuminated optics, the reticle becomes difficult if not impossible to see when an auxiliary light source, such as a weapon light (flashlight), is turned on, illuminating the target. This makes the sight useless because the aiming point of the reticle disappears as it is washed out by the activated light source. The light source may be held in the off position until needed and activated at the instant when needed, often for the element of surprise. The aiming point of the reticle is, therefore, instantly needed as the light turns on the target is visible and action by use of the sight is needed almost immediately. However, just at the time the sight is needed, known lighted reticles are unusable as described above.


Known aiming devices provide no solution for this problem. Existing reticles may employ a battery powered optic reticle that illuminates the indicia of the reticle. However, with such devices, the brightness remains constant or is manually adjustable and cannot adapt to the fast changing light conditions caused by activating other light sources including for example a weapon mounted light. Other reticles that use ambient light to illuminate the reticle do not compensate for the brightness of the light on the target and leave the aiming point invisible.


Accordingly, there is a long felt need for an improved apparatus for light adjusting aiming aid.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

While the present invention is achievable by various forms of embodiment, there is shown in the drawings and described hereinafter several examples of embodiments with the understanding that the present disclosure is to be considered an exemplification of the invention and is not intended to limit the invention to the specific embodiments contained herein as will become more fully apparent from the discussion below. It is further understood that the intensity adapting optical aiming reticle apparatus of the present invention may be used more generally in any application where it is desirable to provide aim assistance in rapidly changing lighting conditions and the like.


Before describing in detail exemplary embodiments that are in accordance with the present invention, it should be observed that the embodiments reside primarily in combinations of apparatus components related to illuminated reticles. Accordingly, the apparatus components have been represented where appropriate by conventional symbols in the drawings, showing only those specific details that are pertinent to understanding the embodiments of the present invention so as not to obscure the disclosure with details that will be readily apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art having the benefit of the description herein.


The instant disclosure is provided to further explain in an enabling fashion the best modes of making and using various embodiments in accordance with the present invention. The disclosure is further offered to enhance an understanding and appreciation for the invention principles and advantages thereof, rather than to limit in any manner the invention.


It is further understood that the use of relational terms, if any, such as first and second, top and bottom, and the like are used solely to distinguish one from another entity or action without necessarily requiring or implying any actual such relationship or order between such entities or actions.


An optical aiming device, often comprising a reticle, may be used for aiming assistance, by use of an aiming point whether for binoculars, spotting scopes, microscopes, weaponry, range finders and the like. The optical aiming device may be a reticle or other aiming point that is illuminateable. The reticle, or at least portions or markings of the reticle are illuminated so that the reticle markings, i.e. the aiming point or points, lines, tick marks, cross hairs, aiming pattern and the like are visible. The illumination intensity of the reticle markings may be adjusted so that the brightness of the reticle markings does not over power the intended target in the viewing sight of the aiming device. Typically in low or even no-light conditions the reticle markings are set to a level that makes them visible to a user but not over powering and therefore making the intended target difficult to see or at least distracting. For example, U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2010/0083554A1, which is incorporated herein by reference, teaches an optical sight. The optical sight may include an optical element and a reticle displayed on the optical element. In addition, U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,653,034 and 6,807,742 teach a “Reflex sighting device for day and night sighting” and a “Reflex sight with multiple power sources for reticle,” respectively. Both of these patents are also incorporated herein by reference.



FIGS. 1-3 illustrate an embodiment of an intensity adapting apparatus for an optical aiming device. The apparatus may comprise an optical aiming device 108 mounted to a weapon 105. A light source 107 is also mounted to, or part of, the weapon 105 in this embodiment. A light connector 102 transmits light from the light source 107 to the optical aiming device 108. The optical aiming device 108 may have a reticle 110 see FIG. 1B-1C, and a reticle ambient light collector 109. In this embodiment the reticle ambient light collector 109 may be on one or more sides of the optical aiming device 108. The light connector 102 may have a light input end 101 and a light output end 103. The light input end 101 of the light connector 102 is positioned to receive light from the light source 107. In this embodiment, the light input end 101 of the light connector 102 is held in place with light input mount 104. The mount 104 in this embodiment is mounted to the light source 107.


As illustrated in FIGS. 2A, 2B and 2C, light input 101 may be mounted such that the input is positioned in the beam of the light source 107 (shown here in dashed lines). The light input 101 is held in place with mount 104. The light input mount 104 positions the light input end 101 such that light emitted from the light source 107 is received by the light input end 101 and then transmitted through the light connector 102. Said another way, the light input end 101 is in the direct path, or nearly the direct path of the light from the light source 107. As shown in FIGS. 2B-C, the input may be placed in the path of the light source across an area 111 extending in an arc across a portion of the beam of the light source. As specifically illustrated in FIG. 2C, the input may be placed at various angles 101a-c with respect to the light source. Such a configuration allows the intensity of the reticle to be adjusted by positioning the input in the desired location relative to the light source. The clocked position 101a-c of the light collector 101 determines how much light the input captures from the flashlight. Embodiments shown in FIGS. 2A-C illustrate the mount 104 attached directly to the light source (flashlight). Alternatively, the mount may be attached to other components of the system, such as directly to the weapon 105 or to other components.


When the light source 107 is activated, light emitted by the source is received by the light input end 101, transmitted by the light connector 102 to the light output end 103, and transmitted into the optical aiming device 108 through the reticle ambient light collector 109. The light is channeled through the light connector 102 from the light source 107 to the aiming device 108. This channeled light is received in the aiming device 108 and directed to the reticle 110, which causes the brightness of the reticle 110, to increase. The light from the light source 107 directly illuminates the reticle 110. The brightness or the illumination by the light source is directly proportional to the brightness of the light source 107. Therefore, when the light source 107 is activated, the brightness level of the reticle 110 increases.


The reticle 110 may already be illuminated through its own illumination source or by ambient light, and when the light source 107 is activated, the brightness of the reticle 110 increases. This allows the reticle 110 to brighten sufficiently to remain visible to the user, and not be washed out due to the higher intensity of light produced by the light source 107.


For example, when using the reticle, e.g. aiming point, cross hairs etc., in very low light, in a first light state, the brightness of the reticle 110 is initially low, matching the current lighting conditions; this state is prior to the light source 107 being illuminated. In this first light state, the low level of illumination of the reticle does not interfere with the viewing of the object being targeted or aimed at while viewing the object through the reticle. Once the light source 107 is turned on, the brightness of the reticle increases so that it remains visible and not washed out by the rapid increase in light due to the activation of the light source 107. The brightness or intensity of the reticle 110 adapts automatically, as it has a fast response time, as the light from the light source 107 is used to simultaneously illuminate the intended target as well as the aiming point of the reticle 110.


As shown in FIG. 1A and FIG. 3, the light connector 102, which comprises a fiber optic cable in this embodiment, runs from the light source 107, along the weapon 105 and may be mounted to the weapon 105 at one or more points along the weapon 105, and to the optical aiming device 108. The light connector 102 may be made long enough to be adapted to weapons of various length, different mounting positions of both the light source or the optical aiming device 108. In this embodiment, the light connector 102 is shown in a linear fashion however, it is to be understood that there may be loops in the cable or it may wind in various fashions around the weapon as it is strung from the light source 107 to the optical aiming device 108.


In embodiment of the apparatus, the light connector 102 uses a fiber optic cable, which may be a Plastic Optic Fiber (POF) to transmit light directly from a flashlight (i.e. the light source 107) to the reticle. The light input end 101 in one embodiment may be the end of the fiber optic cable. In one embodiment the end of the fiber optic cable may be pointed directly at the light source 107. In other embodiments the light input end 101 may be generally in the light source path but not directly pointed at the light source 107. The fiber optic cable may be jacketed fiber cable of commercial grade and preferably between 1 and 5 mm in diameter or more preferably around 3 mm in diameter. It is to be understood that any fiber optic cable that carries or transmits light from one end to the other may be employed.



FIG. 4 illustrates an embodiment of an intensity adapting apparatus comprising an optical aiming device 108 mounted to a weapon 105. A light source 107 is also mounted to, or part of, the weapon 105. A light connector 402 is mounted to the reticle 110. The light connector 402 may have a light input end 401 and a light output end 403. The light connector 402 may be a fiber optic cable that is carried by or mounted to a formable material such as a wire or other formable material. The light connector may be made out of formable material without the use of addition formable carriers or wires. The formable material allows the light connector 402 to be bent and formed such that the light input end 401 can be positioned in the path of the light emitted from the light source 107, while the light input end is mounted to the reticle 110. As with the previous embodiments, the light from the light source 107 is transmitted through the light connector 402 to the reticle, when the light source is activated.



FIG. 5 illustrates an embodiment of an intensity adapting apparatus comprising an optical aiming device 108 mounted to a weapon 105. A light source 107 is also mounted to, or part of, the weapon 105.

An electrical conductor 502 transmits signal from the light sensor 501 to the second light source, which may be an LED 503, through a control circuit not shown. The LED 503 emits light into optic reticle 108 ambient light collector 109. The optical aiming device 108 may have a reticle 110 see FIG. 1B-1C, and a reticle ambient light collector 109.


In this exemplary embodiment, the reticle ambient light collector 109 may be on one or more sides of the optical aiming device 108. The light connector 502 may have a light sensor end 501 and a light output end 503. The light sensor end 501 of is positioned to receive light from the light source 107. Light output end 503 has an LED with an independent power source, and is positioned to transmit light to the light collector (109) of optic (108).


When Flashlight 107 is activated, the sensor 201 transmits a signal to the light output 503. Light output 503 transmits light into the reticle ambient light collector 109. In this embodiment, the light sensor end 501 of the light connector 502 is held in place with light sensor mount 504. The mount 504 in this embodiment is mounted to the light source 107. As shown in FIG. 5, the light connector 502, which comprises an electrical conductor in this embodiment, runs from the light source 107, along the weapon 105 and may be mounted to the weapon 105 at one or more points along the weapon 105, to the optical aiming device 108. The light connector 502 may be made long enough to be adapted to weapons of various lengths, different mounting positions of both the light source or the optical aiming device 108. In this embodiment, the light connector 102 is shown in a linear fashion however, it is to be understood that there may be loops in the cable or it may wind in various fashions around the weapon as it is strung from the light source 107 to the optical aiming device 108.


In embodiments consistent with FIG. 5, the light connector 102 uses electrical conducting cable. In one embodiment the metal portions of the weapon may be used as one of the conductors and a second wire runs between the light sensor 501 and the second light source 503. Additionally the control circuit controls when the second light source 503 turns on. A power source such as a battery powers the control circuitry, the sensor and the second light source 503.
