English Abstract


Device and method for correcting the position of aiming
elements of an arm, specially a sight, with respect to the bore axis of said
arm, comprised of a hollow tube having an appropriate length so that it
can be introduced in the arm, in place of the bolt of the latter, the tube
presenting a truncated end so as to be adapted to the caliber in the mouth
of the chamber, and provided externally with a bush having an outside
diameter corresponding to the entrance point of the bolt, so that it is
centered. Said device is provided internally with a laser beam emitting
system with supplying and switching means, said beams going through
the truncated area appropriately bored as well as optionally, another
stepped surface adapted to the firing mouth and also axially bored so that
the beam materializes, on a target placed according to adequate distance
tables, the impact point by means of a light point and, with respect to the
latter, correcting the sight by acting on the corresponding sight adjusting
mechanisms.


French Abstract

Appareil et méthode permettant de corriger la position des éléments de visée d'une arme, en particulier une mire ou un viseur, par rapport à l'axe de l'âme des armes, l'appareil consistant en un tube creux de longueur appropriée que l'on introduit dans l'arme, à la place de la fermeture de celle-ci, le tube présentant une extrémité tronconique pour son adaptation au calibre de l'embouchure de la chambre, et étant doté extérieurement d'une douille de diamètre externe approprié au point d'entrée de la fermeture, afin qu'il soit centré. Le système d'émission de rayons laser est monté à l'intérieur de l'appareil, ce système ayant des moyens d'alimentation et d'interruption. Les rayons laser traversent la zone tronconique dûment taraudée ainsi que, en option, une autre pièce de surface échelonnée adaptée à l'embouchure et également taraudée axialement afin que le rayon laser matérialise, sur une cible située à une distance donnée par une table de distance, le point d'impact sous forme de point lumineux, et par rapport auquel on effectue la correction de la mire ou du viseur en agissant sur ses mécanismes correspondants d'ajustement de cette dernière.

Claims

- 8 -
CLAIMS
1. Apparatus for correcting the position of the aiming elements, especially
sights or viewfinders, of weapons with respect to the bore axis thereof,
characterized in that it consists of a device coupled so as to be sealed at every
point between the breech and the mouth of the barrel, with power supply and
on-off switch means, and that it emits a laser beam which is projected through
the bore of the weapon.
2. Apparatus for correcting the position of the aiming elements, especially
sights or viewfinders, of weapons with respect to the bore axis thereof,
according to Claim 1, characterized in that the laser beam emitter device
consists of a hollow cylindrical tube of a smaller calibre than that of the
weapon in question, in that its front and internal end is provided with a
connecting region, for fitting an extension piece thereof, with a frustoconical
end divided into sectors of increasing diameter, pierced axially by an internal
duct and, optionally, coupled, at least the last one of smallest diameter, to one
another, for fitting to the front region of the breech, whatever its internal
calibre.
3. Apparatus for correcting the position of the aiming elements, especially
sights or viewfinders, of weapons with respect to the bore axis thereof,
according to Claims 1 and 2, characterized in having provision, on the basic
tube, for a sleeve sliding with slight friction, of external calibre matching that
of the receiving bridge which fixes the bolt in the rear region, for the purposes
of immobilizing and centering the apparatus.
4. Apparatus for correcting the position of the aiming elements, especially
sights or viewfinders, of weapons with respect to the bore axis thereof,
according to Claims 1 to 3, characterized in making use optionally of a piece
with its surface stepped into cylinders of progressive diameter in order to be
fitted to the muzzle according to its calibre, which piece is also pierced alongits axis, so as, with the laser beam which passes

- 9 -
through it, physically to represent the bore axis of the weapon in question.
5. Method for correcting the position of the aiming elements, especially
sights or viewfinders, of weapons with respect to the bore axes thereof,
characterized in using the apparatus described according to Claims 1 to 4, in
conjunction with a set of targets, corresponding to various distances, on which
the difference in height which has to exist between the cross of the aiming
element and the spot of light of the laser beam is represented, and, based on
that, without having to immobilize the weapon, in being able to make the
corresponding correction to the aiming mechanisms, optionally using connected
data processing means, depending on the distance at which the weapon is
going to be used.
