  • Patent number: 9062970
    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.

  • Publication number: 20140176934
    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

  • Patent number: 4671633
    Abstract: The invention relates to a slide magazine with housing, open at the top, a slide projector with a picture-changing device having a horizontally actuated slide pusher. The housing, which can be mounted immovably in the projector, has, approximately in the longitudinal center of a longitudinal wall, an opening for a slide, opposite which there is a deflector with a deflecting surface, which runs at an angle to the longitudinal center plane of the housing. In the area of the deflector, a transporting lever, which can be moved transversely to the longitudinal center plane from a resting position to a working position, and which has a working surface that works together with the slide pusher, is mounted especially so that it can be swivelled. With the transporting lever in the resting position, the working surface protrudes into the path of the slide pusher. However, when the transporting lever is in the working position, the working surface is arranged outside of this path.
