US12540795 - Modular scope mounting system with serrated interfaces for mounting components
The patent describes a modular scope mounting system for firearms that features a scope mounting assembly with serrated interfaces designed to securely attach components, such as scopes, while maintaining their positional relationships. The assembly includes a rail clamp for mounting to the firearm and a fastener that engages the serrated interfaces to ensure rotational and translational stability of the attached components.
Claim 1
1 . A scope mounting system for a firearm, comprising: a scope mounting assembly configured to couple to the firearm and including: a rail clamp configured to couple to a mounting rail of the firearm; at least one scope ring connected to the rail clamp; and at least one serrated interface that is spaced apart from the rail clamp and configured to engage a complementary-shaped serrated interface of a component such that the component is rotationally and translationally fixed to the scope mounting assembly to maintain a positional relationship between the component and a scope held by the at least one scope ring, wherein the at least one serrated interface includes a plurality of saw-tooth shaped serrations, and a through-hole configured to receive a fastener to hold the complementary-shaped serrated interface against the plurality of saw-tooth shaped serrations, wherein the through-hole is surrounded by the saw-tooth shaped serrations. a scope mounting assembly configured to couple to the firearm and including: a rail clamp configured to couple to a mounting rail of the firearm; at least one scope ring connected to the rail clamp; and at least one serrated interface that is spaced apart from the rail clamp and configured to engage a complementary-shaped serrated interface of a component such that the component is rotationally and translationally fixed to the scope mounting assembly to maintain a positional relationship between the component and a scope held by the at least one scope ring, wherein the at least one serrated interface includes a plurality of saw-tooth shaped serrations, and a through-hole configured to receive a fastener to hold the complementary-shaped serrated interface against the plurality of saw-tooth shaped serrations, wherein the through-hole is surrounded by the saw-tooth shaped serrations. a rail clamp configured to couple to a mounting rail of the firearm; at least one scope ring connected to the rail clamp; and at least one serrated interface that is spaced apart from the rail clamp and configured to engage a complementary-shaped serrated interface of a component such that the component is rotationally and translationally fixed to the scope mounting assembly to maintain a positional relationship between the component and a scope held by the at least one scope ring, wherein the at least one serrated interface includes a plurality of saw-tooth shaped serrations, and a through-hole configured to receive a fastener to hold the complementary-shaped serrated interface against the plurality of saw-tooth shaped serrations, wherein the through-hole is surrounded by the saw-tooth shaped serrations. a plurality of saw-tooth shaped serrations, and a through-hole configured to receive a fastener to hold the complementary-shaped serrated interface against the plurality of saw-tooth shaped serrations, wherein the through-hole is surrounded by the saw-tooth shaped serrations.
