Publication number: 20220373299Abstract: A weapon mount for controlling targeting of a weapon includes a base, an arm that extends from the base, and an attachment component that is rotatably coupled with the arm. The base is attachable to a platform and is rotatable to control a yaw of the weapon relative to the platform. The attachment component is configured to couple with the weapon and is rotatable to control a pitch of the weapon relative to the platform. The arm is positioned relative to the base so that a recoil vector of the weapon is within 0.5 inches radially of an axis of rotation of the base.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 11, 2022Publication date: November 24, 2022Applicant: AimLock Inc.Inventors: Benjamin Dwyer, Bryan Sterling Bockmon, Raymond Keeney, Jason R. Gallia, Shane Korthuis, Dusty Terry, Marc Hanchak

Patent number: 9839306Abstract: A rotation and detent mechanism includes a body defining a cavity and having a travel limiter with two fixed faces protruding into the cavity. A detent plate nests and rotates within the cavity and has two limiting surfaces between which the travel limiter of the body is disposed. One of the limiting surfaces engages a respective one of the travel limiting faces of the body at each extreme of angular rotation of the detent plate. The detent plate includes recesses for engaging one or more spring loaded ball plungers mounted in the body. Each ball plunger engages a recess in the detent plate at certain angular detent positions of the detent plate within the body. The mechanism further includes an axle on which the detent plate rotates, and a coil spring that engages the detent plate, resisting rotation of the detent plate in one rotational direction.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2016Date of Patent: December 12, 2017Assignee: Brass Smith, LLCInventors: Scott Atkins, Andrew Padden, Shane Korthuis, Marc Hanchak, Wayne Sirmons
