Abstract: A mount for a telescope, which allows precise polar of the telescope. The mount comprises: a base with a fixed portion and a pivoting portion; a first rocking structure, mounted to the base, which rotates by 90° on a plane perpendicular to the base; a second rocking structure, mounted to the first structure, which defines an axis AR and rotates by 180° about AR; a polar telescope, mounted to the second structure, with the optical axis aligned with AR; rotating joints, mounted to the second structure, defining an axis D incident and perpendicular to AR; a hose clamp, mounted to the rotating joints, and defining a housing for a telescope; a finder telescope, mounted to the rotating joints or clamp, with the optical axis XC being aligned with the housing defined by the clamp.

Abstract: A first aspect of the invention relates to a mount (1) for a telescope (5). The mount comprises: a basement (2) with a fixed portion (3) and a pivoting portion (4); a first rocking structure (7), mounted to the basement, which rotates by 90° on a plane perpendicular to the basement; a second rocking structure (8), mounted to the first structure, which defines an axis AR and rotates by 180° about AR; a polar telescope (12), mounted to the second structure, with the optical axis aligned with AR; rotating joints (13), mounted to the second structure, defining an axis D incident and perpendicular to AR; a hose clamp (14), mounted to the rotating joints, and defining a housing for a telescope; a finder telescope (15), mounted to the rotating joints or clamp, with the optical axis Xc being aligned with the housing defined by the clamp. A second aspect of the invention relates to a method for the precise polar position of a telescope supported by this mount.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a mount for telescopes, particularly of a portable type for amateur or semi-amateur telescopes, though it can be also applied to fixed telescopes and professional telescopes. Particularly, the present invention relates to a support for a telescope comprising a mount and means for resting said mount on the ground, wherein said mount comprises a primary rocking element allowing one to set the latitude of the observation place, to said primary rocking element being pivotally fastened a frame which allows moving the telescope about the right ascension axis and/or about the declination axis.
