  • Patent number: 7259911
    Abstract: A trinocular tube for stereo microscopes with an inclined binocular eyepiece whose angle can be adjusted and with two stereo microscope beam paths. The trinocular tube includes, in the beam paths, a first tube unit which can be connected to the body of the stereo microscope. A connection piece for cameras is arranged at the first tube unit. A second tube unit is arranged at the first tube unit so as to be swivelable around an axis and which is connected to an eyepiece tube unit that is swivelable around the optical axis of the respective beam path. The trinocular tube also includes a roof mirror, a deflecting element and an optical axis that is swivelable around a second swiveling axis.

  • Publication number: 20050111090
    Abstract: The invention is directed to a stereo microscope which is suitable particularly for observing fluorescence with incident light. Particularly advantageous fluorescence excitation is achieved when the illumination beam path has a zoom system by which an illumination is achieved that is adapted to the zoom factor of the observation beam path.

The trinocular tube comprises, in the beam paths, a first tube unit which can be connected to the body of the stereo microscope. A connection piece for cameras is arranged at the first tube unit. A second tube unit is arranged at the first tube unit so as to be swivelable around an axis and which is connected to an eyepiece tube unit that is swivelable around the optical axis of the respective beam path. A roof mirror is arranged in each stereo microscope beam path, which roof mirror reflects the entering light beams toward the respective eyepiece tube unit. A deflecting element is provided in at least one of the stereo microscope beam paths of the trinocular tube and is rigidly connected to a roof mirror with an open roof edge in a holder that is swivelable around a second swiveling axis.
