Abstract

Ein Reflexvisier (10) hat ein Gehäuse (20), das entlang einer optischen Achse (A) eine Einblicköffnung (21) und eine Ausblicköffnung (22) aufweist. Es hat ferner eine Projektionseinrichtung (40), die das von einer Lichtquelle (50) erzeugte Licht als Zielmarke (Z) abbildet, sowie eine Einkoppeloptik (60), welche die von der Projektionseinrichtung (40) abgebildete Zielmarke (Z) in den Strahlengang entlang der optischen Achse (A) einkoppelt. Um zu verhindern, dass die Zielmarke (Z) vom anvisierten Objekt her sichtbar ist, sieht die Erfindung vor, dass wenigstens ein Mittel (61, 62) vorgesehen ist, durch das die von der Projektionseinrichtung (40) abgebildete Zielmarke (Z) im Wesentlichen nur von der Einblicköffnung (21) aus sichtbar ist. Das Mittel (61, 62) kann eine polarisierende Strahlteilerschicht (61) sein, die als Grenzschicht (65) zwischen zwei Prismen (63, 64) ausgebildet ist. Oder man verwendet ein Bandsperrfilter (62), das zwischen der Einkoppeloptik (60) und der Ausblicköffnung (22) angeordnet ist und verhindert, dass von der Einkoppeloptik (60) reflektiertes Licht in Richtung Ausblicköffnung (22) sperrt bzw. ausfiltert. Um einen kostengünstigen und einfach zu fertigenden Aufbau des Visiers (10) zu erreichen, sind die Komponenten (40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100) des Visiers (10) als vorgefertigte Baugruppen ausgebildet, die rasch und präzise im Gehäuse (20) montiert werden können.

Figure imgaf001
A reflex sight (10) has a housing (20) which has an insight opening (21) and an observation opening (22) along an optical axis (A). It also has a projection device (40), which images the light generated by a light source (50) as a target mark (Z), and a coupling optics (60), which the (Z) imaged by the projection device (40) in the beam path along the optical axis (A) couples. In order to prevent the target mark (Z) being visible from the object being sighted, the invention provides that at least one means (61, 62) is provided, through which the target mark (Z) imaged by the projection device (40) substantially only visible from the viewing opening (21). The means (61, 62) may be a polarizing beam splitter layer (61) formed as a boundary layer (65) between two prisms (63, 64). Or one uses a band rejection filter (62), which is arranged between the coupling optics (60) and the viewing aperture (22) and prevents light reflected by the coupling optics (60) from blocking towards the viewing aperture (22). In order to achieve a low-cost and easy-to-manufacture structure of the sight (10), the components (40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100) of the visor (10) are formed as prefabricated assemblies, which quickly and accurately in the housing (20) can be mounted.
