Adjusting element for adjustment of a line of sight of an optical sighting mechanism, and telescopic sight with the adjusting element and weapon with the telescopic sight, and method for adjusting the line of sight

An adjusting element for adjustment of a line of sight of a rifle scope, comprising:

• a base having a reference marking thereon,
• a rotary actuating element that can be rotated around an axis of rotation relative to the base, the rotary actuating element being a rotary actuating knob defined by an outer circumferential surface, and
• an indicator element coupled to the rotary actuating element and adapted to be rotated along with the rotary actuating element around the axis of rotation relative to the base, the indicator element having a plurality of scale markings used in conjunction with the reference marking to indicate a current setting, wherein each of the scale markings represents a values of a main parameter, wherein in order to take into account a first ancillary parameter at least two scale levels are formed, wherein each of the at least two scale levels are arranged on the indicator element axially spaced apart at an axial distance from each other, wherein scale markings of the individual scale levels representing the same value of the main parameter are displaced from each other by a difference angle, and the main parameter can be corrected with the first ancillary parameter by using the individual scale levels arranged on the same indicator element axially spaced apart at an axial distance,
• wherein the scale markings are continuous arcuate curves extending between and beyond the scale levels.

• an indicator element that can be rotated around the axis of rotation relative to the base and has at least one scale with multiple individual scale markings, wherein the indicator element is coupled to the rotary actuating element, and the indicator element is visible with reference to the reference marking and acts to display a current setting of the rotary actuating element, wherein the individual scale markings represent values of a main parameter, wherein in order to take into account a first ancillary parameter at least two scale levels are formed, wherein each of the at least two scale levels are arranged on the same indicator element axially spaced apart at an axial distance from each other, wherein scale markings of the individual scale levels representing the same value of the main parameter are displaced from each other by a difference angle, and the main parameter can be corrected with the first ancillary parameter by using the individual scale levels arranged on the same indicator element axially spaced apart at an axial distance,
• wherein the individual scale markings extend as continuous arcuate curves between and beyond the individual scale levels.
