A telescope made up of mutually connectable modules, which telescope includes at least a lens module and an eyepiece module, and the lens module and eyepiece module each have a connection interface for connecting the modules, wherein an optical system for changing the zoom is integrated in the lens module.

Telescope with mutually connectable modules

A telescope made up of mutually connectable modules, which telescope comprises at least a lens module and an eyepiece module, and the lens module and eyepiece module each have a connection interface for connecting the modules, wherein an optical system for changing the image magnification is integrated in the lens module.

A tripod () has at least one tripod leg () consisting of three telescopically guided segments () for length adjustment. Rotation of one of the segments () fixes the adjusted length of the tripod leg ().

Tripod

A fastening device for attaching an aiming telescope () on a weapon using a mounting rail () connected to a telescope housing and extending along the telescope, the mounting rail being supported on at least one mounting apparatus () fastened to the weapon. The mounting rail is provided with a longitudinal groove () and a clamping part () corresponding to an inside profile of the longitudinal groove () is inserted into the groove and fixed with an attaching screw () that engages threads () in the clamping part (). The attaching screw () is passed through an opening () in the mounting apparatus (). The mounting rail () is provided on the side facing the mounting apparatus () with a toothing () that is engaged by at least one projection () protruding from the mounting apparatus.

A pair of binoculars includes a compact focusing mechanism providing an open reach-through space between the body tubes of the binoculars with an enhanced area for the user to grasp and hold each body tube. The focusing mechanism further provides for adjustment of the body tube spacing without affecting focusing. The focusing mechanism includes a compact focusing knob structure situated on an outside of an articulated bridge connecting the body tubes and used for adjusting and maintaining a desired distance between the tubes. The focusing mechanism includes respective arms extending from the focusing knob to each of the body tubes, the ends of the levers riding on the inside of a conically shaped plunger coaxial with a pivot point of the bridge so that adjusting a spacing between the body tubes does not affect focusing. When positioned inwardly, the focusing knob produces a longitudinal movement of the plunger to effect focusing of both focusing elements simultaneously. When pulled out, the focusing knob causes movement of an eccentric used to radially translate a pivot point of one or both of the levers thereby effecting the position of the single focusing element and providing a diopter adjustment. If desired, a second pivoted bridge may be included, longitudinally spaced from the first bridge along the body tubes so that a substantially contiguous opening is provided for grasping of the binoculars. The binoculars may use a variety of optical components including roof prisms, Porro prisms or be configured as field glasses.
