Archery sight, an optic assembly, and optic adjustment mechanisms for use in an archery sight

An elevation adjustment mechanism for an archery bow sight having an optic, the adjustment mechanism comprising:

• an elongated main body adapted for mounting to a bow, the main body having a channel elongated in the direction of elongation of the main body;
• a slider adapted for mounting to the optic and the slider slidably engageable with the channel of the main body and having a rack thereon;
• and
• a shaft mounted for rotation in the main body and having a pinion engageable with the rack of the slider;
• wherein rotating the pinion moves the rack of the slider to provide elevation adjustment of the optic.

A windage adjustment mechanism for an archery bow sight having an optic, the adjustment mechanism comprising:

• a main body adapted for mounting to a bow and having a channel;
• a windage bar slidably mounted in the channel and adapted for mounting the optic to the windage bar;
• and
• means for translating the windage bar in the channel wherein windage adjustment of the optic is provided;
• wherein the windage bar further comprises a recess and wherein the means for translating the windage bar comprises a threaded rod having a projection which engages the recess in the windage bar.

An elevation and windage adjustment mechanism for an archery bow sight having an optic, the adjustment mechanism comprising:

• an elongated main body adapted for mounting to a bow, the main body having a first channel elongated in the direction of elongation of the main body;
• a slider slidably engageable with the first channel of the main body, the slider having a rack thereon and a second channel elongated in a direction perpendicular to direction of elongation of the main body;
• a windage bar slidably mounted in the second channel of the slider and adapted for mounting the optic to the windage bar;
• a shaft mounted for rotation in the main body and having a pinion engageable with the rack of the slider mount;
• means for rotating the shaft wherein the pinion engages the rack of the slider wherein elevation adjustment of the optic is provided;
• and
• means for translating the windage bar in the second channel wherein windage adjustment of the optic is provided, wherein the windage bar further comprises a recess and wherein the means for translating the windage bar comprises a threaded rod having a projection which engages the recess in the windage bar.

An archery sight comprising:

• an optic assembly, the optic assembly comprising:
• a lens holder comprising:
• a housing made from a light-transferring material;
• an aperture in the housing;
• means for mounting a reticle in the aperture;
• and
• means for mounting the housing to the sight;
• and
• at least one fiber-optic pin positioned in the lens holder;
• wherein the housing made from the light-transferring material provides at least some illumination to the fiber-optic pin;
• an elevation adjustment mechanism comprising:
• an elongated main body adapted for mounting to a bow, the main body having a first channel elongated in the direction of elongation of the main body;
• a slider adapted for mounting to the optic assembly and slidably engageable with the first channel of the main body and having a rack thereon;
• a shaft mounted for rotation in the main body and having a pinion engageable with the rack of the slider;
• and
• means for rotating the shaft wherein the pinion engages the rack of the slider wherein elevation adjustment of the optic assembly is provided;
• and
• a windage adjustment mechanism comprising:
• a second channel in the slider of the elevation adjustment mechanism;
• a windage bar slidably mounted in the second channel and adapted for mounting to the optic assembly;
• and
• means for translating the windage bar in the second channel wherein windage adjustment of the optic assembly is provided.
