Aiming Glasses with Movable Optical Part for Visual Axis Alignment
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing aiming technologies, such as diopter sights and contact lenses, fail to provide accurate alignment with the center of the yellow spot pit in the eye, leading to inaccurate aiming due to the athlete's physiological unawareness of the pit's position and instability of aiming guides, limiting versatility across different sports.
Innovation Solution
Aiming glasses with movable and rotatable lenses and frames, equipped with aiming guides that can be aligned with the eye's visual axis and vertically oriented, allowing precise alignment with the center of the yellow spot pit and target, and featuring mechanisms like magnets and Hooke's joints for stable positioning.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If a diopter sight with fixed aiming guides is used, then the device structure is simple, but the aiming accuracy is poor due to inability to align with the center of the yellow spot pit
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the dynamics principle by making the optical part movable and rotatable relative to the frame. The optical part can be adjusted in position and orientation to align with the center of the yellow spot pit, transforming the fixed structure into a dynamic one that adapts to the athlete's eye anatomy and aiming requirements.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent segments the glasses into distinct functional components: a frame, a movable optical part with aiming guides, and a mechanism for adjusting the optical part's position. This segmentation allows each component to perform its specific function independently while enabling overall system adaptability.
2Reliability
If contact lenses with aiming guides are used, then aiming guidance is provided, but the guides are unstable during blinking causing frequent reinstallation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary mechanism between the frame and the optical part - a movable connection system that maintains stable positioning of the aiming guides while allowing necessary adjustments. This intermediary structure prevents direct contact with the eye (avoiding blinking interference) while ensuring reliable alignment.
3Adaptability or versatility
If fixed aiming guides are used in glasses, then the device is simple to manufacture, but versatility across different sports is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies universality by designing the optical part with adjustable position and orientation capabilities that can adapt to different sports and aiming requirements. The same basic structure with movable optical components can serve multiple sports disciplines, eliminating the need for sport-specific designs.
4Measurement precision
If the optical part is fixed relative to the frame, then manufacturing is easier, but alignment with the visual axis is inaccurate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms the fixed optical part into a movable one that can be adjusted during assembly and use to achieve precise alignment with the visual axis. This dynamic adjustment capability compensates for variations in eye anatomy and head position, achieving high alignment precision without requiring complex manufacturing processes.

AI summary
Aiming glasses can be used for finding a line of aim when shooting firearms and pneumatic weapons, as well as in archery, billiards, golf, and curling. The aiming glasses include an optical part in which aiming guides can be moved and rotated relative to a frame in order to align the center of the guides with the visual axis of the eye, which passes through the center of the fovea and the target, and to vertically orient the guides. The results are improved at aiming accuracy and greater versatility of the aiming glasses for use in different types of sport. A further technical result is that of enabling a sportsperson to cultivate a reproducible afterimage of the aiming guides at the start of a line of aim.
