Abstract: A binocular telescope with an integrated laser rangefinder includes spatially separate first and second telescope tubes, each with an eyepiece and a focusable lens, that are connected by a folding bridge for setting eye spacing. The folding bridge has an eyepiece-side hinge body with first and second hinge eyes, and a spatially separate lens-side hinge body. The hinge eyes are connected to the telescope tubes. A rotary knob is mounted on a hinge shaft for focusing the lenses, which are arranged in the telescope tubes. A receiver of the laser rangefinder and an optoelectronic display element are disposed in the first telescope tube. A transmitter of the laser rangefinder is arranged on the lens-side hinge body, is flush with the hinge shaft, and emits a transmission beam parallel to an observation direction. The lens-side hinge body has first and second brackets.

Abstract: A binocular telescope with an integrated laser rangefinder, consisting of: separate first and second telescope tubes (1, 2), each with an eyepiece (3, 3?) and a lens (4, 4?) that can be focused, wherein the telescope tubes (1, 2) are connected to one another by a folding bridge for setting the eye spacing, the folding bridge contains an eyepiece-side and a separate lens-side hinge body (5, 6), the eyepiece-side hinge body (5) contains a first hinge eye (7) connected to the first telescope tube (1) and a second hinge eye (8) connected to the second telescope tube (2), which are connected to one another by a hinge shaft (9), on which a rotary knob (10) is mounted for focusing the lenses (4, 4?) arranged in the telescope tubes (1, 2), and wherein the receiver of the laser rangefinder and an optoelectronic display element are arranged in the first telescope tube (1) in a fixed arrangement with respect to the optical observation axis (18) of the first telescope tube (1) and, with the transmission axis (17) ther

Abstract: The invention pertains to a Porro prism of the second type, with at least two interconnected reversing prisms that each provide two reflective inclined surfaces for a beam path between an entry surface and an exit surface, wherein the exit surface of one reversing prism and the entry surface of the other reversing prism form their respective connecting surface, and wherein the inventive Porro prism is characterized in that the connecting surface lies oblique to the optical axes of those sections of the beam path that penetrate the exposed entry and exit surfaces of the reversing prisms.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of measuring the distance between a fixed point and an object, by the steps of: a) transmitting a light pulse (11) from the fixed point at a selected instant of transmission; b) periodically scanning of light intensity received at the fixed point and continuously storing, as a set of received scanned signal values, the scanned values at the scanning rate during a predetermined measuring time window (13) embracing the instant of reception of the light pulse reflected from the object; c) repeating steps a) and b) N number of times in order to obtain N number of sets of received signal values; d) summing the individual stored sets of received scanned signal values, set by set, to a summed scanned value set during a calculating window (14) following the N measuring time windows (13); e) repeating steps a) through d) in order to obtain a further summed scanning value set, whereby during or following step d) the further summed scanned value set is added, scanned value set by s

Abstract: The invention relates to a combined telescope and telemeter device comprising a telescopic sight (1) having a housing (2), one end of which receives an objective lens (3) while the other end receives an eyepiece (4), said housing defining a beam path (5) between the objective lens and the eyepiece. The device also includes an opto-electronic telemeter (12) with emitter-receiver optics (14) for optical measuring beams (15) and evaluation electronics (24) for timing the interval between an emitted measuring beam and a received measuring beam and for determining the distance on the basis thereof.

Abstract: A prism system for image inversion in a visual observation beam path, which uses a roof prism and a reflecting prism. The roof prism has a roof edge inclined with respect to a bottom face, and a gable face which is placed at an angle with respect to the bottom face and which acts as a beam splitter. The reflecting prism has a beam-pass face parallel to the bottom face of the roof prism. The bottom face of the roof prism and the beam-pass face of the reflecting prism have areas separated geometrically from one another for the passage of observation beams and for the passage of a further beam path which reflects a measured-value display into an exit-side observation beam path and/or reflects a rangefinder measuring beam path into an entry-side observation beam path.
