  • Publication number: 20180313633
    Abstract: An adjustment assembly having a rotary encoder, riflescopes incorporating the same, and related methods are provided. In one example, an adjustment assembly includes a first rotational component configured to rotate about an axis, a first gear coupled with the first rotational component and a second gear coupled with the first rotational component. The assembly further includes an encoder. The encoder includes a position gear engaged with the first gear, the first gear and the position gear having a 1:1 gear ratio, and a revolution gear engaged with the second gear, the second gear and the revolution gear having a gear ratio other than 1:1, wherein the gear ratio of the second gear and the revolution gear independent of a ratio of the respective diameters of the second gear and the revolution gear. Sensors may determine the rotational positions of the position sensor and the revolution sensors.

  • Publication number: 20180313939
    Abstract: An optical instrument, such as a spotting scope, is provided. The optical instrument may include a range finder configured to calculate or otherwise determine a distance between the optical instrument and an identified object. The optical instrument may also include a display and a user interface. In some embodiments, an operation system associated with the optical instrument may include sensing touchless gestures. For example, hand gestures or eye gestures may be used to navigate a user interface, to actuate the laser range finder, to alter the brightness of a display, or to carry out any of a number of other operational commands.

  • Publication number: 20180313634
    Abstract: A riflescope, a magnification ring for a riflescope and related methods are set forth herein. In one embodiment, a riflescope includes a main tube having an optical axis, an eyepiece, and a magnification ring associated with the eyepiece, the magnification ring being rotatable about the optical axis. In one embodiment, the magnification ring includes a collar rotatably coupled with the main tube and a rotatable ring disposed at least partially about the collar and being selectively positionable relative to the collar at a plurality of user-selected positions. The rotatable ring is releasably fixed to the collar at any of the plurality of user-selected positions. The rotatable ring also includes a protrusion extending radially from an outer surface of the rotatable ring.

  • Patent number: 10101122
    Abstract: A scope turret including a dial assembly that is configured to adjust point of aim optics of a scope is disclosed. The turret may include an adjustable stop assembly that prevents the dial assembly from rotating in one direction. The adjustable stop assembly may include a traveler, a nut assembly, and a bolt. The adjustable stop assembly may be internally-adjustable or externally-adjustable. The dial assembly may include an engagement mechanism. The engagement mechanism may include a button that is slidable between an engaged position and a disengaged position of the engagement mechanism. The turret may further include a locking mechanism that selectively prevents the dial assembly from rotating in any direction.

  • Publication number: 20180231352
    Abstract: A gun scope is provided having a battery compartment. The battery compartment may be configured to house one or more batteries to provide electronic power to one or more electronic components associated with the gun scope. The battery compartment is associated with a rotatable component, such as a magnifying ring, and configured to rotate with the rotatable component about an axis. In one embodiment, the battery component may be integrally formed with the rotatable component. In another embodiment, the battery component may be formed as a separate component and coupled with the rotatable component. The battery compartment extends radially outward from the rotatable component and provides a lever for rotation of the rotatable component about its axis of rotation.

  • Publication number: 20170227327
    Abstract: A riflescope having a display that provides information to a user of the riflescope, along with related methods, is provided herein. In one embodiment, a riflescope includes an objective system and an ocular system, wherein a focal plane is defined between the objective system and the ocular system. A display system, comprising a display and a mirror, is positioned at a location between the focal plane and the ocular system. In one embodiment, the distance between the focal plane and the ocular system is equal to a sum of a distance between the display and the mirror and a distance between the mirror and the ocular system.
