Abstract: An attachment receptacle (10) which can be fixed on a head covering, such as a helmet 5, of a user and has a clamping device is provided. The attachment receptacle 10 is fixed by means of a fixing component, for example having hook-like retaining brackets 9a, 9b, on the back of a head covering and is connected via a clamping element to the front or to a sighting device mounted on the front, such as a night vision device 2. The attachment receptacle 10 with the clamping device is formed in such a way that externally accessible components are integrated in the form of the receptacle, in such a way that no projecting or protruding components can cause unintentional actuation of the clamping device. The attachment receptacle 10 is furthermore advantageously formed on the head covering so as to be adjustable in height.

Abstract: According to the invention, an attachment receptacle (10) which can be fixed on a head covering, such as a helmet 5, of a user and has a clamping device is provided. The attachment receptacle 10 is fixed on the one hand by means of a fixing component, for example having hook-like retaining brackets 9a, 9b, on the back of a head covering and is connected via a clamping element, such as a tensioning strap 6, to the front or to a sighting device mounted on the front, such as a night vision device 2. The clamping element can preferably be clamped by means of the clamping device so that the attachment receptacle 10 is pressed firmly onto the head covering. The attachment receptacle 10 with the clamping device is formed in such a way that externally accessible components, such as a clamping lever 11 of the clamping device are integrated in the form of the receptacle, e.g.

Abstract: A holder for fixing at least one vision device, in particular a night vision device (2) on a head covering, such as a helmet (5), of a user (1), comprises a support element (7) which can be fixed indirectly or directly to the helmet (5), an arm (8) coordinated with the support element (7), a receptacle (9) for the vision device being arranged so as to be pivotable about the arm (8), with the result that a pivot movement of the vision device between an operating position and a rest position is permitted. A rotating element non-rotatably connected to the receptacle (9) is coordinated with the arm (8), a spring being arranged on the rotating element in a manner such that the receptacle (9) is under spring force both in the operating position and in the rest position. Furthermore, a stop element (13) is provided, by means of which the position of the vision device in the operating position can be set and fixed in a defined manner.
