FIG. 2 is a side view of FIG. 1, and FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view explaining a main part of FIG. 3. FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view of the main part of FIG. .

The mount for a single-night night vision scope of the embodiment of the present invention includes a body 1, a dot sight mount 3, and a night vision mount 5.

The body 1 may refer to a portion that can be coupled to a Picatiny rail (not shown). The dot sight mount portion 3 and the night vision eyepiece mounting portion 5 may be integrally extended to the body 1.

The dot site (DS) can be coupled to the dot-site mounting portion 3 by a fastening member (not shown) such as a screw. The night vision apparatus DS may be coupled to the night vision apparatus mounting unit 5. The dot site DS and the night-visionoscope NV are positioned on the same optical axis line in a state where the dot site DS and the night-visionoscope NV are coupled to the dot-site mounting section 3 and the night- It is preferable that the dot site DS and the night vision lamp NV are arranged in the longitudinal direction. That is, it is preferable that the dot sight mount portion 3 and the night vision spot mounting portion 5 are disposed along the longitudinal direction at a position where the dot sight DS and the night vision bar NV are aligned in the optical axis direction.

This embodiment of the present invention enables the user to accurately aim the target by using the dot site DS even at night.

The night vision apparatus mounting portion 5 includes a fixing groove 7 and a fixing portion 9.

In the night vision lamp NV, an adapter 11 fitted to the fixing groove 7 is engaged.

Described fixing groove portion 7 is located on the upper side of the night vision barrel mounting portion 5 and is provided with a space into which the above-described adapter 11 can be fitted. The shock-absorbing member 13 can be fitted in the fixing groove 7 (see Fig. 4). The impact absorbing member 13 is preferably made of a material such as rubber or silicon. In addition, it is preferable that the impact absorbing member 13 is made of a material having excellent elastic force. It is preferable that the impact absorbing member 13 is fitted in the fixing groove 7 and is disposed in close contact with the adapter 11. [ The shock absorbing member 13 may have the same shape as that of the adapter 11 and the bottom surface.

The fixing groove portion 7 may be provided with a latching jaw 15 for hooking the adapter 11 on the front surface of the adapter 11 (which means the end portion of the portion facing the subject in Fig. 4). The latching jaw 15 may be cut in the direction of the optical axis and inclined downward or rounded with respect to the main section.

The fixing portion 9 is for fixing the adapter 11 to the fixing groove portion 7 and may be provided on the opposite side of the fixing groove portion 7. [ The fixing portion 9 can fix the adapter 11 when the adapter 11 is inserted into the fixing groove portion 7. [

The fixing portion 9 may include a horizontal moving member 17, a fixing member 19, and an elastic member 21.

The horizontal moving member 17 is disposed on the opposite side of the fixing groove 7 and has a fixing step 17a for fixing the adapter 11. [ The horizontal moving member 17 can move in the direction perpendicular to the optical axis direction. The horizontal moving member 17 is provided with a guide groove 17b at a central portion along the longitudinal direction. The fixing jaw 17a provided on the horizontally moving member 17 has a constant inclination angle a (shown in Fig. 5) with respect to the moving direction of the horizontally moving member 17.

The fixing jaw 17a of the horizontally moving member 17 is arranged in a slanting manner as described above, so that the adapter 11 can be firmly fixed in a state of tightly adhering in the direction perpendicular to the optical axis direction.

On the other hand, a slant projection 17c is provided in an upper portion of the fixing jaw 17a of the horizontally moving member 17. [ The inclined projection 17c provided on the horizontally moving member 17 is provided such that one side of the horizontally moving member 17 extends in the z-axis direction (reference to Fig. 5). The inclined projection 17c is formed such that the upper surface portion thereof is inclined from the upper surface to the lower surface.

The inclined projection 17c can insert the adapter 11 into the fixing groove 7 while the horizontal moving member 17 is pushed in the y-axis direction when the adapter 11 is brought into close contact with the -z direction.

On the other hand, a movement restricting member 23 is coupled to a portion of the horizontally moving member 17 opposite to a portion where the fixing jaw 17a is provided. The movement restricting member 23 may move only a predetermined section when the horizontal moving member 17 moves, thereby limiting the moving distance of the horizontal moving member 17. [

The fixing member 19 can couple the horizontally moving member 17 to the back surface side of the fixing groove portion 7. The fixing member 19 is fixed to the back surface of the fixing groove 7 by a fastening member such as a screw. At this time, the horizontal moving member 17 can move in a direction (y direction or -y direction) perpendicular to the optical axis. The fixing member 19 is provided with a guide projection 19a. The guide protrusion 19a can be fitted into the guide groove 17b of the horizontal moving member 17 described above. Therefore, the guide projection 19a can guide the horizontally moving member 17 to move in the direction perpendicular to the optical axis direction.

The elastic member 21 may be a compression coil spring and may be sandwiched between the guide groove 17b of the horizontal shifting member 17 and the guide projection 19a. The elastic member 21 acts so that the horizontal moving member 17 can always return to the initial position.

Hereinafter, the operation of the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

First, the user needs to attach the night vision device NV to the night vision device mounting part 5 in a state where the dot site DS is mounted on the mount site for the short sight night vision device of the embodiment of the present invention, The adapter 11 is pushed downward from the upper side of the fixing groove portion 7 (-z direction) while only the night visionoscope NV with the adapter 11 is held by hand. Then, a part of the adapter 11 is brought into close contact with the inclined projection 17c, so that the inclined projection 17c moves in the y direction (refer to FIG. 5).

The horizontal moving member 17 moves in the y direction while overcoming the elastic force of the elastic member 21 and the adapter 11 is fitted into the fixing groove portion 7 through the upper surface of the fixing groove portion 7. [

Then, one side of the adapter 11 is brought into close contact with the engaging jaw 15, and the other side of the adapter 11 comes into close contact with the fixing jaw 17a. Since the elastic member 21 acts to return the horizontally moving member 17 to the initial position, the engaging protrusion 15 and the fixing protrusion 17a are further brought into close contact with the adapter 11.

The fixing jaw 17a provided on the horizontally moving member 17 has the inclination angle a so that the force is applied to the optical axis direction and the direction orthogonal to the optical axis direction so that the adapter 11 is firmly held by the jaw 15, And is coupled to the inside of the fixing groove portion 7 while being in close contact with the fixing groove portion 7. In particular, a shock absorbing member 13 is provided inside the fixed groove 7 and is brought into close contact with the impact absorbing member 13. The impact absorbing member 13 serves to make the adapter 11 closely contact the fixing groove 7 without a clearance between the fixing groove 7 and the adapter 11 since it is an elastic body having an elastic force acting also in the z direction .

Therefore, the user can easily fit the adapter 11 into the fixing groove 7 in a one-touch manner. This makes it easy to easily connect the night vision system NV to the night vision system mounting unit 5 at night, which is very convenient to use.

In addition, even when severe vibration and shock are applied due to shooting or the like, the impact can be absorbed by the impact absorbing member 13, thereby reducing vibration and shock to the night vision system NV, thereby increasing the durability and stabilizing the night vision system NV) can be used.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed exemplary embodiments, but, on the contrary, And it goes without saying that the invention belongs to the scope of the invention.
