Abstract

A height-adjustable optics mount includes a lower base attachable to the firearm including an angled platform having a plurality of male guiding teeth and located on the lower base; and an upper base which is operable between a slidable position where the upper base is sliding along the plurality of the male guiding teeth and a static position where the upper base is affixed on at least one of the plurality of male guiding teeth.

Claims (18)

1. A height-adjustable optics mount, comprising:

a lower base attachable to the firearm comprising an angled platform having a plurality of male guiding teeth and located on the lower base; and

an upper base which is operable between a slidable position where the upper base is sliding along the plurality of the male guiding teeth, and a static position where the upper base is affixed on at least one of the plurality of male guiding teeth,

wherein the upper base comprises a nut having a female guiding tooth, and in the static position, the female guiding tooth is engaged with at least one of the plurality of male guiding teeth, and the height of the optics mount is determined by the engaged position of the female guiding tooth and said at least one of the plurality of male guiding teeth; said engaged position is changed by directly sliding the upper base along the plurality of the male guiding teeth, and the upper base slides along a longitudinal axis and the female guiding tooth slides perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.

2. The height-adjustable optics mount of claim 1 , wherein the angled platform comprises a sloping surface inclinedly arranged with the lower base and affixed on the lower base.

3. The height-adjustable optics mount of claim 1 , wherein the angled platform comprises a sloping surface defining a right side edge having the plurality of male guiding teeth and a left side edge opposite of the right side edge.

4. The height-adjustable optics mount of claim 1 , wherein the upper base comprises a receiving slot where the female guiding tooth is located therein, and in the slidable position, a right side edge of a sloping surface of the angled platform is sliding along the receiving slot.

5. The height-adjustable optics mount of claim 1 , wherein the angled platform comprises a sloping surface defining a right side edge having the plurality of male guiding teeth, wherein the right side edge is defined on a peripheral edge of the sloping surface.

6. The height-adjustable optics mount of claim 1 , wherein the upper base comprises a nut cavity configured to receive the nut.

7. The height-adjustable optics mount of claim 1 , wherein the upper base comprises a receiving cavity formed on a bottom side of the upper base and configured to slidably receive the angled platform.

8. The height-adjustable optics mount of claim 5 , wherein the sloping surface is slidably received within a receiving cavity formed on a bottom side of the upper base.

9. The height-adjustable optics mount of claim 6 , wherein the upper base further comprises a means for engaging with the nut to affix the nut on the upper base.

10. The height-adjustable optics mount of claim 3 , wherein the right side edge is parallel to the left side edge.

11. The height-adjustable optics mount of claim 1 , wherein the upper base comprises a female guiding tooth, and when in the slidable position, the female guiding tooth is released from the male guiding teeth.

12. The height-adjustable optics mount of claim 1 , wherein the upper base comprises a female guiding tooth located inside a receiving cavity formed on a bottom side of the upper base.

13. The height-adjustable optics mount of claim 1 , wherein the lower base comprises a bottom surface attachable to the firearm and a top surface where the angled platform is located thereon, wherein the bottom surface is opposite of the top surface.

14. The height-adjustable optics mount of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of the male guiding teeth comprises a plurality of locking grooves, and each of the locking grooves is spacedly arranged with one another in a row.

15. The height-adjustable optics mount of claim 1 , wherein the upper base comprises a female guiding tooth, and when in the static position, the female guiding tooth is engaged with a plurality of locking grooves of the male guiding grooves.
