Abstract: A binocular adapter including a base and a receiver joined together by a stanchion arm. The receiver being configured to receive a binocular stem in a stem aperture defined by a receiver head. The receiver head configured to rotate relative to a receiver stanchion. The binocular stem including a first and a second end. The first end including a connector configured to connect to a binocular. The second end, distal to the first end, including a stem extension configured to be received by the stem aperture. The second end further including a groove configured to be received in a spring clip disposed on the receiver stanchion for retaining the binocular stem. The receiver head including a fastener for securing the binocular stem within the stem aperture while it is engaged in the spring clip.

Abstract: A selectable fixed-focus binocular that is highly functional and simple to operate for the end consumers. The binocular combines the close and fine focusing advantages of a traditional binocular with the ease of use offered in a fixed-focus or focus-free style unit to make a versatile, user-selectable focus style binocular. The end-user can use the binocular in a typical, manual focus mode or manipulate the control knob to transition for use as a simple, fixed-focus unit.
