US12422221 - Firearm laser sight alignment assembly

The patent describes a firearm laser sight alignment assembly that includes a housing designed to separate into multiple pieces, housing a laser module that emits light and can be adjusted in multiple directions for precise alignment. It features a resilient coupling, a switch with a protrusion, and alignment elements that allow for fine-tuning the laser’s position while being resisted by a biasing element.

Claim 1

1. A device configured to couple to a firearm, the device comprising: a housing defining a first opening, a second opening, a third opening, and a socket, wherein the housing is configured to separate into two or more pieces; a laser module at least partially disposed within the socket, the laser module being oriented to emit light towards the second opening; a resilient coupling forming an interference fit between the laser module and the socket at a first position along a length of the laser module; a switch operably connected to the laser module and comprising a protrusion extending through at least one of the first opening or the second opening; a first alignment element operably engaged with the laser module at a second position along the length of the laser module, the first alignment element configured to move the laser module in a first direction; a second alignment element operably engaged with the laser module at the second position along the length of the laser module, the second alignment element configured to move the laser module in a second direction different from the first direction; and a biasing element operably engaged with the laser module, the biasing element situated within a pocket defined by the two or more pieces of the housing when assembled together, the biasing element configured to resist the first alignment element and the second alignment element, the biasing element directed in a third direction different from the first direction and the second direction. a housing defining a first opening, a second opening, a third opening, and a socket, wherein the housing is configured to separate into two or more pieces; a laser module at least partially disposed within the socket, the laser module being oriented to emit light towards the second opening; a resilient coupling forming an interference fit between the laser module and the socket at a first position along a length of the laser module; a switch operably connected to the laser module and comprising a protrusion extending through at least one of the first opening or the second opening; a first alignment element operably engaged with the laser module at a second position along the length of the laser module, the first alignment element configured to move the laser module in a first direction; a second alignment element operably engaged with the laser module at the second position along the length of the laser module, the second alignment element configured to move the laser module in a second direction different from the first direction; and a biasing element operably engaged with the laser module, the biasing element situated within a pocket defined by the two or more pieces of the housing when assembled together, the biasing element configured to resist the first alignment element and the second alignment element, the biasing element directed in a third direction different from the first direction and the second direction.
