DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Overview

In terms of a general overview, certain embodiments described in this disclosure are directed to systems for iron or plastic sights for a firearm. In an example system, a rear sight has an adjustable peep hole in order to adjust the viewing range of the sight. Further, the rear sight may be adjusted laterally. In another example system, a front sight has a protrusion along with a mechanism that allows a user to adjust the height of the protrusion, and the mechanism locks the protrusion in place. In yet another example, either or both the front sight and the rear sight may transition between a deployed and undeployed position where the deployed position allows the use of the iron sight(s) and where the undeployed position collapses the iron sights to allow for better storage or use of other tools such as a scope or a red-dot sight.
In accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, the rear sight has an aperture disposed on a post. The post has an adjustable peep with one or more peep holes that may each be aligned with the aperture by rotating the peep transverse to the longitudinal axis of the firearm. Each peep hole and the aperture may have different inner diameters. Further, each peep hole may be located at different distances from the longitudinal axis the peep rotates about. These varying distances change the height of the rear sight aperture to help account for targets at varying distances. When aiming with a peep having a greater distance from the longitudinal axis, that is, a peep having a greater height may be able to be adjusted for a greater aiming distance, in conjunction with adjustments to the front sight. On the other hand, when transitioning to aim at a target that is relatively closer, a lower height aperture, relative to the longitudinal axis about which the peep rotates, may be desired so that little to no adjustment of the front sight post may be needed. The opposite may also apply, transitioning form a relatively close target to a target that is farther away, which may be accomplished with adjustment of the rear sight alone by changing peep holes. When a user is aiming at a target located at a closer range, the user may wish to use a peep hole with a larger inner diameter and/or a smaller distance from the longitudinal axis or just the aperture itself. When a user is aiming at a target located at a farther range, the user may wish to align a peep hole having a smaller inner diameter and/or a greater distance from the longitudinal axis with the aperture. In another embodiment, the adjustable peep may lock into place. In one example, there may be a spring pulling the adjustable peep against the post. The peep then may have protrusions that fall into indents of the post to lock the peep in place when one of the peep holes are aligned with the aperture. In another example, the post or base may have a ball bearing biased against the peep by a spring. The peep then has one or more indents that align with the ball bearing when any of the peep holes are aligned with the aperture in order to lock the peep in place. In either example, in order to adjust the peep, a force must be applied to the adjustable peep in order to overcome the force of either of the springs. In another embodiment in accordance with the present disclosure, the rear sight may have a post connected to a base using a pin joint. The rear sight may then transition between a deployed and an undeployed position by rotating about the pin joint. In a further embodiment, the post may be adjusted laterally along the pin joint.
In accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, the front sight has a protrusion used for aiming at a target. The protrusion may have its height adjusted in order to align a vertical trajectory of the firearm with a target to account for distance. The protrusion’s height is adjusted, for example, by moving a screw attached to the protrusion between a maximum height and a minimum height. The screw’s height may be adjusted by rotating a dial of the wheel mechanism with grooves corresponding to the grooves of the screw. In order to maintain the height of the protrusion, the wheel mechanism is held in place by a plunger being biased toward the wheel mechanism by a spring. The wheel mechanism is a dial having one or more indents along its surface that the plunger may fall into. As the dial is rotated, the plunger falls into each consecutive indent. Each consecutive indent the plunger falls into corresponds to a different height of the protrusion. In another embodiment in accordance with the present disclosure, the front sight may have a post connected to a base using a pin joint. The front sight may then transition between a deployed and an undeployed position by rotating about the pin joint.
In accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, a user may aim at a target by 1) adjusting the peep so that there is proper peep hole alignment based on the range of the target; 2) adjust the lateral range of the rear sight to align with the firearm’s horizontal trajectory; 3) adjust the vertical height of the protrusion of the front sight to align with the firearm’s vertical trajectory; and 4) aim down the iron sights by aligning the target, front sight protrusion, and rear sight peep hole or aperture.

Illustrative Embodiments

The present disclosure provides for a firearm sight with adjustable peep. A firearm sighting system in accordance with the present disclosure includes a rear sight 100 with an adjustable peep 106 and a front sight 200. The rear sight 100 may include a base, rear sight post and an adjustable peep 106 rotatably attached to the rear sight post. The adjustable peep 106 may include two or more differently sized peeps holes that can be respectively positioned to line up with a sighting aperture of a front sight post. The two or more peep holes may also be located along the peep at different distances from the longitudinal axis. By having two or more peep holes of different sizes and/or of different distances from the longitudinal axis that can be selectively positioned for use based on the position of the peep 106, different depths of field can acquired for aiming the firearm at different distances or when using different types of rounds.
As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , in some embodiments, the rear sight 100 has a post 102 that may be pivotally connected to a base 103, as is commonly referred to as back up sights (BUS) or flip-up sights. In other embodiments, the rear sight 100 has a post 102 fixedly connected to a base 103. The rear sight 100 may be mounted to a firearm via the base 103. The rear sight 100 may secure the post 102 and base 103 together with screws, pins, or other suitable fasteners. In some embodiments, the rear sight 100 has the post 102 rotatably coupled to the base 103 via fastener 120, able to form a deployed position for firing like in FIG. 10A and a first flat position where the post 102 is in an undeployed position like in FIG. 10I. In one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, there may be a dial 125 connected to fastener 120. The rotation of dial 125 in either direction causes the fastener 120 to rotate. As fastener 120 rotates, post 102 experiences lateral movement relative to the base 103. Rotation of the dial in a first direction cause the post to move in a first lateral direction. Rotation of the dial in the opposite direction causes the post to move in the opposite lateral direction.
In some embodiments, the post 102 of the rear sight 100 is connected to the base 103 by a screw 120. The post 102 may also be connected by a pin or other fastener. The post 102 has a solid ring 104 surrounding an aperture 116. The solid ring 104 extends radially around the aperture 116 on the post 102. The solid ring 104 has an outer aperture diameter greater than the width of the peep 106 to prevent accidental knocking or dislodging the peep 106 while either peep hole 108 or peep hole 110 are aligned with aperture 116. The peep 106 may be secured to the post 102 by a fastener 114 through a bore 130 in the post 102. The post 102 may further have a protrusion 118 that is shaped to allow the post 102 to rotate around the base 103. As shown in FIG. 4A, the post 102 has an indent 138 that connects to a spring 136 and plunger 134 housed in the base 103. The spring 136 and plunger 134 are configured to extend into the indent 138 when the post is in the upright position to securely hold it in said position. The post 102 may further have a ridge 140 that interacts with the spring 136 and plunger 134 to hold the post 102 in a flat position when folded down. The shape of the indent 138 and ridge 140 may allow the post 102 to change position by exerting force to compress the spring 136. The post 102, as shown in FIG. 3 , may have a boss 128 on the rear side.
As shown in FIG. 5 , the post may have a pocket 142 around the bore 130 with a first indent 144A and a second indent 144B disposed around the pocket 142. The indents 144A and 144B receive the protrusions 146A and 146B of the peep 106 (see FIG. 6 ) on the rear of the peep 106 to secure the peep 106 in a desired position so that one of a first peep hole 108 or second peep hole 110 is in alignment with the aperture 116. In one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, when aligning the first peep hole 108 with aperture 116, indent 144B receives protrusion 146A while, when aligning the second peep hole 110 with aperture 116, indent 144A receives protrusion 146B. The indents 144 and protrusions 146 may include beveled surfaces to facilitate ingress and egress of the protrusions with respect to the indents as the peep 106 is rotated, and to ensure proper alignment of the peep holes 108 and 110 with the aperture 116.
In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 , the peep 106 may be secured to the post 102 by a fastener 114 through a bore 130 in the arm. As shown in FIG. 4 , the fastener 114 may further have a spring 132 disposed around it between the peep and the post 102 in a pocket 112. The peep 106 may comprise a plurality of peep holes 108, 110. The peep 106 further has a first peep hole 108 disposed on the peep, configured to align with the aperture 116 when the peep is in a first position. The first position being the position where the first peep hole 108 aligns with the aperture 116. The peep 106 may have a second peep hole 110 disposed on the peep 106, configured to align with the aperture 116 when the peep is rotated transversely to the longitudinal axis to the base by 180 degrees into a second position. The second position being the position where the second peep hole 110 aligns with the aperture 116. Thus, in the configuration of FIGS. 1A-1Q, the rear sight 100 is able to have 3 sized apertures depending on the position of the peep 106: the aperture 116 of the post alone, the first peep hole 108 which is disposed on the peep, and the second peep hole 110 disposed on the peep. As shown in FIGS. 1A-1Q, the peep 106 is able to be rotated transversely to the longitudinal axis 700 of the base 103 in a circle around the fastener. The longitudinal axis of the base is the direction that the post moved from a deployed to an undeployed position, or the direction from the rear sight to the front sight. In another embodiment, the post 102 may be a triangular, cross, star, circular, or any other shape with multiple peep holes varying in size disposed along the outer edges. In such an embodiment, the peep may be rotated more or less than 180 degrees in order to transition between different peep holes.
In yet another embodiment, each peep hole may be located at a different distance from the longitudinal axis the peep is rotating about. The different distances result in peeps having different heights when aligned with the aperture. These different heights require the firearm to be tilted up or down in order to align the front and rear sights. The user may wish to use a peep hole with a greater height when aiming at a target from a greater distance. This greater height forces the user to tilt the firearm upward to align the front and rear sights. This upward tilt is used to compensate for the ballistic drop that occurs when firing at targets that are a greater distance from the user. In one such further embodiment, the aperture of the post may be elongated in the vertical direction to accommodate the varying heights of the peep holes. In a different further embodiment, the aperture of the post has an inner diameter large enough to accommodate all of the various heights of the various peep holes. The various heights of the various peeps provides a user with a course, or rough, distance adjustment. For example, the peep hole having the greater height may be used for targets at roughly 200 yards while the peep hole with the smaller height may be used for targets at roughly 100 yards. One skilled in the art would understand that any number of peep holes could be used at any number of varying heights, and not just two peep holes for 100 yards and 200 yards. Once the user has made the course, or rough, distance adjustment with the rear sight, the user may then adjust the height of the protrusion of the rear sight to make any fine adjustments to distance.
As shown in FIG. 6B, the rear side of the peep 106 may have a central protrusion 112 configured to fit into the pocket 142 of the post, and a first protrusion 146A, and a second protrusion 146B attached to the central protrusion 112. The first protrusion 146A and second protrusion 146B are configured to fit into the first indent 144A and second indent 144B to keep the peep in a desired configuration. The first protrusion 146A and second protrusion 146B may be beveled, and the shape of the protrusions 146 may assist the protrusions 146 on the bottom of the peep 106 to be forced out of the indents 144 when pressure is applied to turn the peep 106. The rear sight 100 is able to have three differently sized apertures depending on the position of the peep 106: the aperture 116 of the post 102 itself, the first peep hole 108, and the second peep hole 110. However, one skilled in the art would recognize the possibility of having more than three apertures if the peep has more than two peep holes. For example, the peep could be triangular in shape with a peep hole at each of the vertices, resulting in four apertures. In another example, the peep may be crossed shaped with four peep holes, resulting in five apertures. The peep could be any shape with any number of peep holes. In one more example, the peep may be shaped so that the aperture 116 of the post cannot be used without being aligned with a peep hole. That is, the shape of the peep may not allow for the peep to enter a position where a user can peer through the aperture of the post without aligning a peep hole with the aperture. For example, the peep may be circular in shape with any number of peep holes disposed along its outer edge. In such a case, there are only as many possible apertures as there are peep holes.
In some embodiments, the base 103 of the rear sight 100 is connected to the post 102 by a screw 120. The base 103 may have a spring 134 and plunger 136 housed within the base 103. The spring 134 and plunger 136 may secure the post 102 in certain positions by extending into certain shapes 138, 140 of the arm. The base 103 may have another screw 122 extending therethrough. The base 103 may further have a slot 124 disposed on the bottom that allows for securing the sight onto a firearm. The slot 124 may be configured to slide onto a rail system or other mounting system. The slot 124 may be a dovetail cut. The slot 124 may further have a clamp 126 connected to the screw 122. The clamp 122 may be moved by adjusting the screw 122 to better secure the base 103 onto the mounting system of a firearm.
As shown in FIG. 7 , in some embodiments, the front sight 200 has a post 402 connected to a base 404. The front sight 200 is mounted via the base 404 ahead of the rear sight 100 on a firearm. The front sight 200 may secure the post 402 and base 404 together with screws, pins, or other suitable fasteners. In some embodiments, the front sight 200 has the post 402 is secured to the base 404 by a fastener 220. The fastener 220 can be a screw, pin, or any other suitable fastener. The post 402 is rotatable around the fastener 220, able to form a straight up position for firing like in FIG. 11A and a first flat position where the post 402 is forward like in FIG. 11I.
In some embodiments, the post 402 may have a first wing 204A and a second wing 204B at the top of the post 402, with a protrusion 206 between the wings. The protrusion 206 is used as the front sight and is aligned with an aperture of the rear sight for aiming. As shown in FIG. 9 , the post 402 also has an adjustment mechanism, otherwise referred to as a wheel mechanism, for raising and lowering the protrusion 206, such as a dial 208 with a screw 212 disposed therethrough, a pin 210 disposed through a slot of the screw 212, and a spring 226A and plunger 230 configured to couple with each of a plurality of indents 207 in the dial 208 to secure the dial in place. With each indent 207 the plunger 230 rests in, the plunger is in a set position. The adjustment mechanism of FIG. 7 and FIG. 9 can be adjusted by applying force to the dial 208 sufficient to overcome the force of the spring 226A and plunger 230, thereby changing the set position of the plunger. Starting at the initial set position, the dial is rotated until the protrusion 206 is at the desired height where the plunger 230 will be in the final set position. It should be noted that the dial 208 is exposed on three of the four sides of the post 402. However, one skilled in the art would recognize that the dial may still function properly if the dial were exposed on all four sides, just two sides, or just one side. As the plunger 230 is coupled to each subsequent indent 207, the screw 212 is raised or lowered depending on the direction the dial 208 is turned. The protrusion 206, being attached to the screw 212, then changes height with the screw. The post 402 may have a pin 210 that limits how high and how low the adjustment mechanism can adjust the protrusion 206. In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 9 , there can be a plurality of indents 207 in dial 208. As the plunger passes each of the indents, the user may feel a tactile feedback similar to a “click.” These “clicks” provide easily discernable positions of the dial that the user can use to associate with different heights of the protrusion. Such easily discernable positions are useful for quick adjustments. As the dial 208 is rotated about screw 212, the plunger 230 rests in each of the indents 207. The protrusion 206 is at a different height for each indent 207 the plunger 230 is coupled to. The dial 208 raises and lowers the screw 212 with each incremental adjustment of the wheel. Further, the dial 208 has an ergonomic grip that includes an enhancing texture. This enhancing texture increase the ease with which a user may adjust the dial.
As shown in FIG. 9 , the post 402 has an indent 234 that connects to a spring 226B and plunger 228 housed in the base 404. The spring 226A and plunger 228 are configured to extend into the indent 234 when the post 402 is in the upright or deployed position, as shown in FIGS. 11A-11H, to hold the post 402 in said position. The post 402 may further have a ridge 232 that interacts with the spring 226B and plunger 228 to hold the post in a flat or undeployed position as shown in FIGS. 11I-11P. The shape of the indent 234 and ridge 232 may allow the post 402 to change position by exerting force to compress the spring 226B. The post 402 may have a ridge 214 on the inside of the arm. As shown in FIGS. 11I-11P, while the post 402 is in the flat or undeployed position, the dial 208 is not exposed because the dial is only exposed on three of the four sides. This prevents the accidental rotation of the dial while not in use. However, one skilled in the art would recognize that this may still be achieved if the dial is only exposed on one or two of the three sides as long as the dial is not exposed on the side of the post that faces the upwards direction while the post is in the undeployed position.
In some embodiments, the base 404 of the front sight 200 is connected to the post 402 by a screw 220. The base 404 may have a spring 226B and plunger 228 housed within the base 404. The spring 226B and plunger 228 may secure the post 402 in certain positions by extending into certain shapes 232, 234 of the arm. The base 404 may have another screw 220 extending therethrough. The base 404 may further have a slot 224 disposed on the bottom that allows for securing the sight onto a firearm. The slot 224 may be configured to slide onto a rail system or other mounting system. The slot 224 may be a dovetail cut. The slot 224 may further have a clamp 222 connected to the screw 220. The clamp 222 may be moved by adjusting the screw 220 to better secure the base 402 onto the mounting system of a firearm.
In some embodiments, an alternative method for securing the position of the peep relative to the post as the peep is rotated so that when in use the respective peep holes and aperture align, may be provided. For instance, with reference to FIG. 12 and FIG. 13 , the peep 1006 may be secured to the post 1102 by a fastener 1012 through a bore 130. The peep 1006 may further include peep holes 1008 and 1010 in the peep 1006 that may be aligned with aperture 1016 in the post 1102. Further, the peep 1006 may have one or more recesses 1002 on the side of the peep that faces the post.
As shown in FIG. 14 and FIG. 15 , the post 1102 may further have at least one ball bearing 1004 that is biased by a spring 1014 so that the ball bearing 1004 is forced into the recess 1002 on the side of the peep 1006 that faces the post. This spring 1014 forces the peep 1006 into a preselected position for alignment of the peep holes 1008, 1010 and the aperture 1016 of the post 1102. The peep hole 1008, 1010 alignment of FIG. 14 and FIG. 15 can be adjusted by applying a force to the peep 1006 sufficient to overcome the force of the spring 1014 and ball bearing 1004. This force causes the ball bearing 1004 to exit recess 1002 and enter recess 1018, allowing peep 1006 to rotate about fastener 1012.
One skilled in the art may recognize that the placement of the peep recess 1002 and the post recess 1018 may have other locations. For example, the peep recess may be located on one or both ends of the outer edge of the peep while the post recess is actually located on the base so that the spring biases the ball bearing upwards. When either peep hole is aligned with the aperture, the ball bearing will be forced into the outer-edge recess, securing the peep in place.
Although specific embodiments of the disclosure have been described, numerous other modifications and alternative embodiments are within the scope of the disclosure. For example, any of the functionality described with respect to a particular device or component may be performed by another device or component. Further, while specific device characteristics have been described, embodiments of the disclosure may relate to numerous other device characteristics.
