Abstract:
1. An aiming device incorporated into an electro-optic power source which is in turn mounted atop a weapon sight assembly, said aiming device comprising: an enclosed battery compartment defined by a main housing and a rear attachable cover collectively defining a three dimensional interior incorporating at least one battery; an aperture defined in a side of said main housing and from which project contacts extending from said batteries; a planar shaped bus component exhibiting an inner conducting surface, said planar bus component extending along an exterior of said main housing and covering said side defined aperture with said inner conducting surface in communication with said battery contacts; a laser aiming diode and adjustment mechanism built into a first sub-housing securing against an outer conducting surface of said planar shaped bus component; an on/off switch in further communication with said outer conducting surface of said bus component for selectively powering said laser aiming diode from said batteries separate from powering of the weapon sight assembly; and said planar bus component providing electrical communication at any location along each of said inner and outer surfaces while also environmentally sealing both said main housing and sub-housing.
