Patent number: 10197360Abstract: An optical device housing has a post rotatably extending therefrom and a sleeve fixedly extending therefrom. The sleeve is disposed about the post and a knob is connected to the post. A nut rotatably engages with the sleeve and is configured to rotate with the knob. An adjustment screw is threadably engaged with the nut and engages with the knob so as to rotate with the knob. Rotation of the adjustment screw about a screw axis increases a frictional resistance between the nut and the sleeve.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2016Date of Patent: February 5, 2019Assignee: BURRIS COMPANY, INC.Inventors: Matthew Travis White, Steven A. Bennetts, Seth Alan Feinberg

Patent number: 10145652Abstract: An aiming device includes a set of lenses disposed along an optical path, the set of lenses including an objective lens and an ocular lens. A reflective element is disposed on the optical path between the objective lens and the ocular lens. An addressable display is located off the optical path and projects an image to the reflective element. The image is viewable through the ocular lens and is an aiming element superimposed on a field of view.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2015Date of Patent: December 4, 2018Assignee: BURRIS COMPANY, INC.Inventors: Douglas F. Paterson, Steven A. Bennetts

Patent number: 10054398Abstract: An optical device housing has a post rotatably extending therefrom and a sleeve fixedly extending therefrom. The sleeve is disposed around the post. A knob is connected to the post. A clutch mechanism includes: a friction element movably engaged with the sleeve; a friction surface; and an adjustment element engaged with the friction element and rotatable relative to the optical device housing and the knob housing. Rotation of the adjustment element selectively engages the friction surface with the interior surface.Type: GrantFiled: November 2, 2016Date of Patent: August 21, 2018Assignee: Burris Company, Inc.Inventors: Matthew Travis White, Steven A.

Patent number: 9689643Abstract: A method of sighting a target includes receiving an initial condition of an optical device. The initial condition includes a size of a ranging element and a range associated with the size of the ranging element. The method further includes receiving a ballistic information and receiving an image from an imaging sensor. At least a portion of the image is displayed on a display. The ranging element is overlaid on the displayed portion of the image. A first zoom input is received to set a first zoom value that corresponds to a first distance from the optical device. The method also includes determining a first projectile position based on the first distance and the ballistic information.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2016Date of Patent: June 27, 2017Assignee: BURRIS COMPANY, INC.Inventors: George Farca, Steven A. Bennetts, James A. Millett

Patent number: 9038901Abstract: An optical device includes a housing containing a plurality of lenses. At least one of those lenses includes a reticle. An optical device and a processor are also located in the housing. A wind speed sensor is mounted to the housing and configured to send a wind speed signal corresponding to a wind speed to the processor. The processor calculates a wind speed based at least in part on the wind speed signal, and wherein the processor sends an output signal corresponding to the calculated wind speed to the output device.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2013Date of Patent: May 26, 2015Assignee: Burris Company, Inc.Inventors: Douglas F. Paterson, Steven A. Bennetts
