  • Patent number: 5022744
    Abstract: A microscope is disclosed having an illumination device that includes a color temperature regulating device and a color temperature measurement device. The color temperature regulating device includes a light guide and two conversion filters that are disposed on a carrier and are adjustable in a motor-driven manner. Moreover, a color temperature control device is provided, which compares the color temperature determined in the measurement device with a predetermined theoretical value and supplies a corresponding signal to the color temperature regulating device. Furthermore, a measurement or regulating device for the intensity of illumination or light intensity is provided, which compensates the change of light intensity by a motor-controllable diaphragm in the illumination beam path.

  • Patent number: 4820436
    Abstract: Detergents on the basis of anionic and nonionic surfactants contain as laundering power-enhancing additives an aliphatic amine compound which is selected such that its pK.sub.b value is at least equal to 14, minus the initial pH value of a 1% aqueous solution of the detergent containing the amine compound. Laundering power-enhancing amine compounds selected according to the rule mentioned are certain ether amines, amidoamines, glucamine derivatives or morpholine derivatives.

  • Patent number: 4814814
    Abstract: Processes for the introduction, visualization and/or recording of a variable detail metering field stop into part ray paths of a camera for optical instruments, for example microscopes, are described. In addition, appropriate devices are specified. They contain a reversibly illuminable multifield matrix (4), which is provided, at a fixed location, in a plane which is conjugated with the eyepiece intermediate image plane of the optical instrument.

  • Patent number: 4302087
    Abstract: An attachment camera for microscopes, comprising an apparatus for measuring the brightness of an object detail and markings for sighting at least the detail metering field and the image field of the camera in the observation beam. The metering field markings and the image field markings are located on two separate plates, the plate with the metering field marking is defined by a measuring field stop. The two markings differ in size and shape and are simultaneously reflected into the observation beam by means of a photographic ocular located in the picture taking beam and by means of optical components with partly or fully reflecting surfaces located before or after the photographic ocular.A holder (5a) seating in exchangeable manner the photographic ocular (5) is provided between the housing (24) of the attachment-camera and the binocular tube (25).

  • Patent number: 4174159
    Abstract: Photomicrographic exposure meter for cameras attached to microscopes in which part of the picture-taking beam is reflected by means of a beam-splitter and where the reflected beam part projects an image of the object onto an image plane, measuring field stop is located in the image plane with an aperture for detail or spot measurements and an insertable photo-electric detector cooperates therewith downstream of the stop in the direction of light.The beam part is reflected by at least one specular means (12,61) to the measuring field stop (13). The stop is gimbal-suspended and means are provided both for displacing the gimbal-suspended specular means (12,61) and for viewing the object detail appearing in the stop aperture.

  • Patent number: 4152054
    Abstract: Disclosed is a light-metering system for an attachment camera of the type particularly adapted for use with an optical observation instrument having an optical axis comprising a mounting means positioned between the observation instrument and the shutter of the camera and being movable in at least two degrees of freedom; optical means positioned on the optical axis of the observation instrument for selectively deriving either an observation beam or a metering beam from the beam path of the observation instrument; a measuring diaphragm mounted on the mounting means and arranged in the image plane of the metering beam; a photoelectric receiver associated with the measuring diaphragm; a set of markings carried by the mounting means opposite to the measuring diaphragm and positioned in the observation beam; means positioned in the observation beam in a plane conjugated with the image plane of the observation instrument for viewing the image superimposed upon the set of markings; and means for moving the mounting

  • Patent number: 4132891
    Abstract: Exposure measuring system for attachment cameras to microscopes provided with a focusing telescope which is provided with a transverse slot for the selective insertion of two sliders, one of which is provided at the approximate slider center with a photodetector for the exposure measuring system while the other consists of a transparent plate which bears a marking of circular shape or the like also approximately at the center of the slider and corresponding in size to that of the photodetector. The slot possibly serves only for the introduction of a single slider bearing both the photodetector and the marking a given distance apart and is correspondingly displaceable between two positions. The guide path (10) of the slider(s) (9) is displaceable in the plane of the slider and means (16) actuated from outside the focusing telescope are provided to cause slider displacement.

  • Patent number: 4118719
    Abstract: Microscope-attachment camera with a system for measuring the brightness of an object detail and with markings for indicating at least the detail metering-field and the image-field of the camera in the observation beam. The metering field-marking (14) and the image field-marking (22) are positioned on two separate plates, the metering field-marking plate being designed as a metering field-stop (14), and the two markings which differ in shape and size (14,22) are simultaneously reflected into the observation beam.
