The present invention relates to a binocular mounting jig for mounting the binoculars, which can be adjusted by the method described above, on a mount supporting the binoculars at a desired height position.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As shown in FIG. 5, a conventional binocular 1 has a pair of left and right eyepieces 2a and 2b and a pair of left and right eyepieces 2a and 2b.
a, a pair of left and right body portions 3a,
3b, and the pair of left and right body portions 3a, 3b are formed of central mirror portions 5a, 5b and distal end side objective lens portions 7a, 7b. Further, a pair of left and right lacing portions 9a, 9b are formed on the mirror portions 5a, 5b.

An eye width adjusting mechanism 11 is provided between the pair of left and right body portions 3a and 3b, and the eye width of the eyepiece portions 2a and 2b is rotated about the center axis 13 of the body. By doing so, it is made adjustable. A bottom nut 15 is provided at the tip of the machine shaft 13 of the interpupillary distance adjusting mechanism 11, and the bottom nut 15 is normally covered by a nut cover 17.

[0004] In order to mount the binoculars 1 on a gantry supporting a desired height position, as shown in FIG.
A mounting jig 21 formed substantially in an L shape from the vertical plate portion 23;
Is used. A screw hole 22 a is screwed into the horizontal plate portion 22 of the mounting jig 21, and a screw hole 23 a is also screwed into the vertical plate portion 23.

A bolt 25 is screwed into the screw hole 23 a of the vertical plate 23 in a penetrating state, and the tip of the bolt 25 is connected to the bottom nut 15 at the tip of the machine shaft 13 of the interpupillary distance adjusting mechanism 11.
It is made to be screwed into. A bolt of a pan head formed on the upper end of a mount such as a tripod is screwed into the screw hole 22a of the horizontal plate portion 22 of the mounting jig 21.

[0006]

A mounting jig 2 for mounting the conventional binoculars 1 on a gantry supporting a desired height position.
1, a bottom nut 1 for attaching a mounting jig 21
If 5 is not present in the binoculars 1, mounting is not possible, and even if the bottom nut 15 is present,
There was a disadvantage that the nut cover 17 was lost due to the attachment and detachment of the nut cover 17, and the bottom nut 15 remained exposed.

Also, the mounting jig 21 and the binoculars 1 have a poor sense of unity, and the screw holes 23 of the vertical plate 23 of the mounting jig 21 are poor.
Since a bolt 25 is screwed into a in a penetrating state, and the tip of the bolt 25 is screwed into the bottom nut 15 at the tip of the machine shaft 13 of the interpupillary distance adjusting mechanism 11. A pair of right and left body parts 3 around the machine axis 13
When a and 3b are repeatedly rotated, the screwed state of the bolt 25 and the bottom nut 15 is loosened, and the weight of the binoculars 1 is applied to the threaded portion of the bolt 25 and the bottom nut 15, and the threaded portion may be damaged. Had it.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to stably hold a pair of binoculars even when a bottom nut is not present in the binoculars, to provide an excellent sense of unity with the binoculars, and to provide a pair of left and right around the machine axis of the interpupillary distance adjusting mechanism. The present invention provides a binocular mounting jig which is easy to handle and economical without any risk that the mounting state is loosened even if the body portion is repeatedly rotated, and there is no possibility that the threaded portion of the bottom nut is damaged. Things.
