PRISM-TELESCOPE CASING.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented April 17, 1906.
Application filed May 20, 1905. Serial No. 261,288.
T0 at whom it may concern.-
Be it known that I, MAX BERGER, engineer, a citizen of the German Empire, residing at Carl Zeiss strasse, Jena, in the Grand Duchy of Saxe-Weimar, Germany, have invented a new and useful Prism-Telescope Casing, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to such casings of binocular prism telescopes, and particularly of prism field-glasses, which carry or support the arms of the hinge connecting both single telescopes. Such a casing should possess great rigidity in order to resist accidental mechanical strains, which otherwise would alter the position of the optical system secured in and upon the casing, and thereby disturb the parallelism of the optical axes of both single telescopes. In addition thereto the casing should be of light weight, since the prisms already give an undesirable total weight to the field glass. Hitherto both conditions have not yet been simultaneously fulfilled.
In the casing constructed according to the present invention great strength and small weight are both realized. This is effected by the shell to which the hinge-arms are fastened and one end plate of the casing being cupped, punched, or similarly formed in one piece from sheet metal.
Inthe accompanying drawing a longitudinal section is shown of a casing constructed according to the invention.
In the example shown the shell and bot tom piece a, made of sheet metal and bearing the ocular I), does not become wider toward the opening closed in by the cover-plate a, but has an unchanged transverse section.
However, half-way down the shell are indents d, pressed in from the outside, which projecting inside serve as rabbets for the seat 6 of the prisms. They are to be preferred to the screwed-in rabbets, as the shell need not be pierced. The seat is held in position from the other side by the objective f. The arms 9 also, which show the casing to belong to a binocular field-glass, are attached to the shell without having to pierce it, as they completely encircle it and are secured by shrinkage or otherwise.
What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
1. In a binocular prism field-glass two gasings, each comprising a shell and bottom 'pi'eb'e' 'made of sheet metal, a cover-plate closing the open end of the shell and bottom piece and two hinge-arms fastened to the shell, the bottom ahd tlTe co venplate having each a hole for receiving the eyepiece and objective respectively.
2. In a binocular prism field-glass two casings, each comprising a shell and bottom piece made of sheet metal, a cover-plate closing the open end of the shell and bottom piece and two hinge-arms, each of which completely encircles an unpierced zone of the shell, the bottom and the cover-plate having each a hole for receiving the eyepiece and objective respectively.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
MAX BERGER.
