Abstract
An eye alignment assembly for targeting systems. A sight point of an optical fiber is positioned within a housing behind an alignment indicia on a lens. An adjustment system permits the sight point of the optical fiber to be repositioned relative to the alignment indicia on the lens. The eye alignment assembly provides an indication of orientation of a user's eye in the pitch and yaw directions relative to the housing. The eye alignment assembly can be a discrete component or integrated into a targeting system, such as a bow sight.
Claims30
An eye alignment assembly comprising:
- a housing comprising a sight point of an optical fiber positioned behind an alignment indicia on a lens;
- and
- an adjustment system adapted to reposition a sight point of the optical fiber relative to the alignment indicia on the lens, the eye alignment assembly providing an indication of orientation of a user's eye in the pitch and yaw directions relative to the housing.
An illuminated sight comprising:
- a frame;
- at least one sight pin mounted to the frame;
- at least one optical fiber attached to the sight pin, the sight pin comprising at least one opening through which ambient light is gathered by the optical fiber and transmitted to a sight point;
- a luminescent material optically coupled to at least one of the optical fibers;
- and
- a filter covering at least a portion of the luminescent material that blocks at least a portion of the visible spectrum emitted by the luminescent material, while permitting at least a portion of the electromagnetic spectrum to penetrate the filter to charge the luminescent material.
