| 发明名称 | Optical super-elevation device | ||
| 摘要 | An optical super-elevation device including an elevation follower mirror that counter-rotates with an opposite angular rate to the weapon elevation rate, thereby maintaining the line of sight to the target during the elevation process. In one example, the optical super-elevation device includes a modular housing having a mounting bracket configured to fixedly mount to at a weapon or azimuth axis of a tripod, an elevation follower mirror rotatably mounted within the housing, and a mirror actuator coupled to the elevation follower mirror and configured to counter-rotate the elevation follower mirror at an angular rate opposite to an elevation rate of the weapon to maintain a line of sight to a target during super-elevation of the weapon. | ||

| 主权项 | 1. An optical super-elevation device comprising: a modular housing including a first mounting bracket configured to fixedly mount to at least one of a weapon and an azimuth axis of a tripod configured to support the weapon; an elevation follower mirror rotatably mounted within the housing; and a mirror actuator coupled to the elevation follower mirror and configured to counter-rotate the elevation follower mirror at an angular rate opposite to an elevation rate of the weapon to maintain a line of sight to a target during super-elevation of the weapon above the line of sight. | ||
