Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to an aiming device for a gun, and more particularly to an aiming device that can easily aim when shooting while lying down on a belly (also referred to as prone shooting).

[0002]

[Prior art]

 A conventional gun sighting device is mounted on a gun 101 as shown in FIG. 7 and allows a shooter 109 to look along a straight line 107 including a sighting line 105 from the sighting device 103 to a target (not shown). Was aiming and firing. The aiming device 103 includes a front sight 103b and a rear sight 103a. The front sight 103b determines the target direction when aiming while looking into the rear sight 103a (for example, the target position is indicated by a small circle), and the rear sight 103a is You can look into and aim.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 However, when shooting is performed using the gun 101 to which the aiming device 103 shown in FIG. 7 is attached, when the shooter 109 stands up (not shown), the shooter 109 stands up in a natural state (the shooter (The neck 111 of the subject 109 is close to a natural standing state), but the shooter 109 can move his / her head in a crawling state (also referred to as prone shooting) as shown in FIG. The posture of the shooter 109 to be bent at a steep angle upward is forced, and the neck 111 of the shooter 109 and its surroundings (for example, shoulders) are greatly fatigued. Furthermore, such a posture in which the neck 111 is bent upward at a steep angle not only increases fatigue, but also forces the shooter 109 to be in a cramped posture, thereby reducing concentration and reducing the accuracy of aiming. There was also the problem of doing.

Therefore, in the present invention, as shown in FIG. 7, even when the shooter 109 shoots in a stomach crawl state, the shooter 109 is forced to bend the neck 111 upward at a steep angle. The aim is to provide an aiming device without any. By using such an aiming device, fatigue of the shooter 109 due to shooting in a stomach crawling state is significantly reduced, and accurate aiming for a long time in a stomach crawling state is enabled.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The aiming device of the gun of the present invention (hereinafter referred to as “the device”) can aim and aim at a predetermined angle with respect to a straight line including the aiming line from the aiming device to the target. Aiming device. Here, the “predetermined angle” refers to an angle described below. First, consider a straight line that includes a line of sight from an aiming device to a target (hereinafter, referred to as a “line of sight”) and a line that includes a line of sight for aiming the shooter (hereinafter, a “line of sight”). . At this time, if the aiming line and the line-of-sight line do not belong to the same plane, the line-of-sight line is moved in parallel to make it belong to any plane including the line-of-sight line (hereinafter referred to as “sighting plane”). The line of sight moved so as to belong to the aiming plane is defined as a moving line of sight. On the other hand, if the aiming line and the line of sight belong to the same plane, the line of sight is regarded as the moving line of sight (that is, if the aiming line and the line of sight do not belong to the same plane, the line of sight moves to belong to the aiming plane). The line of sight obtained is referred to as a moving line of sight, and if the aiming line and the line of sight belong to the same plane, the line of sight is referred to as a moving line of sight.) The angle formed at the intersection of the aiming line and the moving line-of-sight line in the aiming plane (a line segment belonging to the moving line-of-sight line and traveling from the eye side of the shooter to the intersection, and belonging to the reference line as the end point. The angle formed by a half-line extending on the opposite side to the object and between 0 ° and less than 180 °) is the “predetermined angle”. The "predetermined angle" means that the angle formed at the intersection of the aiming line and the moving line-of-sight line in the aiming plane is greater than 0 degree and less than 180 degrees, but it is usually sufficient for shooting in a crawling state. Considering the position of the shooter, it is preferably at least 20 degrees, more preferably at least 30 degrees, most preferably at least 40 degrees, while preferably at most 90 degrees, more preferably at most 80 degrees. And most preferably 70 ° or less. By doing so, it is possible to peep from a direction that forms a predetermined angle with respect to the aiming line, and aim at the target. Therefore, when the shooter shoots with his stomach crawling, aiming is performed by looking up from above the aiming line (at a predetermined angle). If the shooting direction is directed above the aiming line), it is possible to aim and fire without aiming the shooter to bend the head upward at a sharp angle. By using such a device, it is possible to significantly reduce the fatigue of the shooter due to shooting in a stomach crawl state, and to enable accurate aiming for a long time in a stomach crawl state. If the reference straight line and the line-of-sight straight line belong to the same plane, the present apparatus can be made compact, which is preferable.

[0006] The image processing apparatus may include a reflection unit that reflects an image of the target incident from a direction along the line of sight in a direction forming the predetermined angle. By using the reflecting means in this way, the present apparatus can be configured at a low cost, and at the same time, even an image of a target that is distant or not bright can be reflected in the direction forming the predetermined angle well, You can look in from this direction and aim. The reflecting unit may be any unit as long as it reflects the image of the target object in the direction forming the predetermined angle to the extent that it can be aimed, and is not particularly limited. A prism or a mirror surface may be used because light attenuation due to reflection is small and a reflected image is easily obtained. Note that a pentagonal prism or the like may be used as the prism.

[0007] The reflecting means may reflect the image even number of times. Each time the reflecting means reflects the image of the target once, the image of the target reverses, so if the target is reflected once, three, five, etc., an odd number of times, the image at the time of aiming will be It is difficult to grasp the actual situation because the image is inverted (upside down, left and right). For this reason, if the reflecting means reflects the image of the target object twice, four times, six times, etc., an even number of times, the image at the time of aiming will be a normal image (upside down, left and right will not be reversed). This is preferable because it is easy to grasp the actual situation.

[0008] The direction forming the predetermined angle may be rotatable within a predetermined range around a straight line (reference straight line) including the line of sight. In this way, the direction in which the user looks in order to aim the target (that is, the direction forming the predetermined angle) can be rotated within a predetermined range around the line of sight, so that the position of the shooter at the time of shooting can be adjusted. It can be rotated to a position where aiming is easy. This makes it easier for the shooter to aim when shooting in a stomach-crawling state, further reducing the shooter's fatigue due to shooting in a stomach-crawling state, and providing more accurate long-term crawling in a long time. Aiming is possible.

[0009] The type of gun to which the present apparatus is attached is not particularly limited, and can be used by attaching to various guns. Especially when attached to a competition rifle that shooters are accurate when shooting on their stomach, the shooter bends his head upward at a steep angle even when the shooter fires on his stomach. This eliminates the need for posture, greatly reduces the fatigue of the shooter when firing on the stomach, and enables accurate aiming while on the stomach. This precise aiming can be performed over a long period of time, as it significantly reduces the fatigue of the shooter due to crawling fire.

FIG. 5 is a plan view showing the main unit 53 and the eyepiece unit 29 of the rear sight of the sighting device of another embodiment, and FIG. 6 is a sectional view taken along line XX of FIG. . With reference to FIGS. 5 and 6, an aiming device according to another embodiment will be described. The sighting device of the other embodiment is different from the sighting device 21 of the present invention shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 only in the main body 53 of the rear sighting device. It has the same configuration as the aiming device 21 of the present invention shown in FIG.

The image of the target that has entered the rear sight through the front sight 21 a passes through the inside of a cylinder (not shown), and enters the inside of the main body 53. The main body 53 has a substantially pentagonal prism-shaped box shape as a whole (the internal space 53f is substantially a pentagonal prism shape), and includes a box 53a, a lid 53b for closing an opening of the box 53a, and a box And a bolt 53c for fixing the cover 53b to the cover 53b. Here, both the box 53a and the lid 53b are formed by aluminum die casting, but the invention is not limited to this. At a predetermined position of the box 53a of the main body 53, a substantially cylindrical nozzle 53d having an external thread threaded on the outer periphery is formed, and the nozzle 53d communicates the internal space 53f of the main body 53 with the outside. Have been. The external thread threaded on the outer periphery of the nozzle 53d is adapted to be screwed with a female thread threaded on the inner periphery at one end of a cylindrical portion (not shown). By rotating the main body 53 (including the eyepiece 29), the main body 53 (including the eyepiece 29) is within a predetermined range around the straight line 43 including the sight line (here, the range where the eyepiece 29 does not interfere with the barrel 15, (About 180 degrees). Further, at a predetermined position of the box 53a of the main body 53, an eyepiece fitting hole 53n formed by threading a female screw on the inner periphery is formed. Similarly to the one shown in FIG. 3, on the outer circumference of the cylinder formed by the eyepiece 29, a male screw that can be screwed with the female screw threaded on the inner circumference of the eyepiece fitting hole 27n is screwed. Have been. 5 and 6, the male screw threaded on the outer periphery of the eyepiece 29 is screwed to the female screw threaded on the inner periphery of the eyepiece fitting hole 53n.

On the other hand, a pentagonal prism 71 as a reflection means is provided in an internal space 53f of the main body 53. The pentagonal prism 71, which is a reflection means, is formed by applying silver plating to a first reflection surface 71a and a second reflection surface 71b of the five side surfaces of the pentagonal glass column, which reflect an image of a target. And reflects visible light with little attenuation. The image of the target incident along the straight line 43 (sighting line) including the aiming line first enters the inside of the pentagonal prism 71, is reflected by the first reflecting surface 71a in the direction of the second reflecting surface 71b, and then reflected by the second reflecting surface 71b. The light is reflected by the reflecting surface 71 b in the direction of the eyepiece 29, exits from the inside of the pentagonal prism 71 to the outside, and reaches the eye 92 of the shooter via the through hole 29 a of the eyepiece 29. As described above, the pentagonal prism 71 having the first reflecting surface 71a and the second reflecting surface 71b reflects the image of the target incident along the straight line 43 including the line of sight, and passes through the through-hole 29a of the eyepiece 29. Is disposed in the internal space 53f of the main body 53 so as to reach the eye 92 looking into the camera. The pentagonal prism 71 is attached to the inner wall of the box 53a by bonding.

As is apparent from FIG. 6, the main body 53 is disposed such that a straight line 43 (sighting line) including the aiming line passes through the substantially cylindrical internal through hole 53dd of the nozzle 53d. . The through-hole 29a of the eyepiece 29 is provided at a position where light that has exited from the inside of the pentagonal prism 71 to the outside can pass through well. Then, assembling the main body 53, first, the box 53a and the lid 53b are formed separately by aluminum die casting, and the inner wall of the box 53a (two of the five side surfaces of the pentagonal prism 71 can be bonded well). The pentagonal prism 71 is attached by bonding, and an eyepiece fitting hole 53n is formed at a predetermined position of the box 53a (at the same time, the female screw is screwed into the inner periphery of the eyepiece fitting hole 53n). It can be performed by fitting the eyepiece 29 into the eyepiece fitting hole 53n, assembling the lid 53b to the box 53a, and fixing both with bolts 53c.

As described above, the reflecting means constituted by the pentagonal prism 71 having the first reflecting surface 71a and the second reflecting surface 71b shown in FIG. The image of the target incident from the direction along the straight line 43 including the line is reflected in a direction forming a predetermined angle (in FIG. 6, angle E: about 85 degrees in this case). In the present embodiment, since the reference straight line 43 and the line of sight line 28 belong to the same plane, the line of sight line 28 is a moving line of sight line. Further, the reflecting means constituted by the pentagonal prism 71 having the first reflecting surface 71a and the second reflecting surface 71b is capable of transferring the image of the target object twice (even number of times) between the first reflecting surface 71a and the second reflecting surface. The surface 71b is reflected once each, so that the reflection is performed twice in total. In the case where the shooter fires in a stomach crawling state using the gun equipped with the aiming device of the other embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the aiming device also strikes the target (not shown). It is possible to look from a direction forming a predetermined angle (an angle E in FIG. 6, about 85 degrees in this case) with respect to the straight line 43 including the heading line, and aim at the target. You can aim in a posture that looks into from above. For this reason, even when the shooter is crawling, the shooter can shoot without being forced to bend his head upward at a sharp angle, and the shooter's neck and its surroundings (eg, shoulders) In addition to greatly reducing the fatigue that occurs, the accuracy of aiming can be greatly improved.

Although the sighting device has a front sight and a rear sight here, the invention is not limited to this, and the sighting device may further include the cylindrical portion 23, the first shaft adjustment screw 25a, and the like. The second shaft adjusting screw 25b is not essential either. Further, in the above embodiment, only the reference straight line and the line-of-sight line belong to the same plane. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the reference line and the line-of-sight line do not belong to the same plane ( That is, the position may be a twist). In this case, for example, assuming that the reference straight line belongs to one of the two parallel planes and the line of sight belongs to the other plane, a first perpendicular line is lowered from one point M on the reference straight line to the other plane. When the foot of the first perpendicular line is point N, the second perpendicular line is lowered from the point N to the line of sight in the other plane, and the foot of the second perpendicular line is point P, the point from point M to point N A first mirror surface disposed at a point M that reflects an image in a direction, a second mirror surface disposed at a point N that reflects an image in a direction from a point N to a point P, and a line of sight line from the point P And a third mirror surface disposed at a point P that reflects the image in a direction toward the eyes along the eye. Needless to say, even in such a case, an odd number of mirror surfaces (one, three, five,...) May be appropriately disposed so as not to cause a reverse image.
