Abstract

L'invention concerne un visiocasque qui permet de déplacer un boîtier de système optique de manière adaptée dans la direction haut-bas. Ce visiocasque comporte : un dispositif d'affichage d'image ayant au moins une unité de lumière d'image en mesure d'émettre de la lumière d'image, et un demi-miroir ; un accessoire de connexion qui attache le dispositif d'affichage d'image à un accessoire de montage (8) ; un premier joint à rotule (2) reliant l'accessoire de connexion à l'accessoire de montage (8) ; et un deuxième joint à rotule reliant le dispositif d'affichage d'image et l'accessoire de connexion. Le premier joint à rotule (2) comporte un premier pivot à rotule (21) ayant une première partie de type tige (21A) et une première partie de type sphère (21B), et une première douille (22) ayant une première partie de type trou circulaire (221D) au travers de laquelle la première partie de type tige (21A) passe. L'axe de rotation (86A) reliant le centre (21C) de la première partie de type sphère (21B) et le centre (211E) de la circonférence de la première partie de type trou (221D) s'étend dans une direction croisant la direction avant-arrière et la direction haut-bas.
