Abstract

Disclosed is a telescopic sight mount with adjustable forward tilt. The mount comprises a basic body and an attachment and the basic body and the attachment, by virtue of an arrangement of a clamping screw at an angle greater than a self-locking of a material pairing and less than 90°, have a positive connection. Also disclosed is a telescopic sight mount with adjustable forward tilt wherein the mount comprises a basic body and an attachment and the basic body and the attachment comprise a tapered joint.

Claims (13)

1. A telescopic sight mount with adjustable forward tilt, wherein the mount comprises a basic body and an attachment and wherein in an assembled state of the mount a portion of the basic body and a portion of the attachment form a positive connection due to a clamping screw for the portions of the basic body and the arrangement which is arranged at an angle with respect to a bearing surface of the portion of the attachment that is smaller than 90° and larger than an angle that would result in a self-locking between a material of a wall of the attachment and a material of an object that is arranged between the portions of the basic body and the attachment and contacts the wall of the attachment.

2. The telescopic sight mount of claim 1 , wherein the portion of the attachment comprises an extension comprising a circular pivot on which an adjusting wheel is rotatably mounted.

3. The telescopic sight mount of claim 2 , wherein the adjusting wheel has on a periphery thereof a plurality of plane surfaces.

4. The telescopic sight mount of claim 3 , wherein a distance of each plane surface of the plurality of plane surfaces to a rotational axis of the adjusting wheel corresponds to a specific angle of forward tilt.

5. The telescopic sight mount of claim 2 , wherein a shell surface of the adjusting wheel has a pitch in the form of a spiral.

6. The telescopic sight mount of claim 1 , wherein the mount comprises an additional clamping screw which connects portions of the basic body and the attachment which are different from the portions of the basic body and the attachment which form a positive connection.

7. The telescopic sight mount of claim 6 , wherein one clamping screw extends through a circular pivot and the additional clamping screw extends through a hinge axis.

8. The telescopic sight mount of claim 1 , wherein the mount further comprises a tension spring which holds the basic body and the attachment under tensile stress.

9. The telescopic sight mount of claim 1 , wherein the clamping screw extends through a circular pivot.

10. The telescopic sight mount of claim 1 , wherein portions of the basic body and the attachment which are different from the portions that form a positive connection form a part of a tapered pivot joint.

11. The telescopic sight mount of claim 10 , wherein the tapered pivot joint comprises a tapered pivot comprised in the basic body and a countersink comprised in the attachment.

12. The telescopic sight mount of claim 10 , wherein the tapered pivot joint comprises a tapered pivot comprised in the attachment and a countersink comprised in the basic body.

13. The telescopic sight mount of claim 1 , wherein the object is a spacer plate.
