Description

【考案の詳細な説明】[Detailed description of the invention]

【0001】[0001]

【考案の属する技術分野】[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

本考案は、倍率変更可能な双眼鏡に関する。 The present invention relates to binoculars with variable magnification.

【0002】 この種双眼鏡は、対物レンズ系と接眼レンズ系との間に位置するリレーレンズ を光軸上に沿って移動する謂わゆるズームレンズ光学系から成り立つ。Such binoculars comprise a so-called zoom lens optical system which moves a relay lens located between an objective lens system and an eyepiece lens system along an optical axis.

【0003】 本考案の変倍双眼鏡も基本的にはこの構成を具備する。The variable power binoculars of the present invention basically have this configuration.

【0004】[0004]

【従来の技術】[Prior art]

上記ズームレンズ光学系によって、双眼鏡の倍率変化を与える場合、対物レン ズ系と接眼レンズ系との間で光軸上を移動させるリレーレンズは、各種収差を除 去し、また連続的な倍率変化を行なわせるために、リレーレンズを複数群で構成 し、それらを相関的に動かすといった複雑な構成と機構が余儀なくされ、その結 果として、視界が狭くなる傾向を否定できない。 When the zoom lens optical system changes the magnification of the binoculars, a relay lens that moves on the optical axis between the objective lens system and the eyepiece system removes various aberrations and continuously changes the magnification. In order to achieve this, a complicated configuration and mechanism, such as configuring the relay lenses in a plurality of groups and moving them in a correlated manner, is inevitable, and as a result, the tendency of narrowing the field of view cannot be denied.

【0005】 また、別の手段としては、単一のリレーレンズの移動とともに、接眼レンズ系 をも関連して動かすといった機構的な設計が要求された。何れにしても、こうし たレンズ系の構成によれば、変倍目的のために、レンズ系に高価な素材を使用し たり、複雑なレンズ構成やレンズ系に対して関連的な移動を行なわせる必要から 、視界が狭小となったり、重量が大きく嵩張るものとなって、小型化に困難を来 たし、その結果、生産価格も高騰するのを避けられなかった。As another means, a mechanical design has been required to move the eyepiece system in conjunction with the movement of the single relay lens. In any case, according to such a configuration of the lens system, an expensive material is used for the zooming purpose, or a complicated movement is performed for a complicated lens configuration or the lens system. This necessitated the narrowing of the field of view and the large and bulky weight, which made it difficult to miniaturize it, and as a result, the production price was inevitable.

【0006】 図4及び図5によって、2群で構成されたリレーレンズを相関的に動かす従来 のズームレンズ光学系を具えた変倍双眼鏡のリレーレンズの動きを示す。FIGS. 4 and 5 show the movement of a relay lens of a variable power binocular provided with a conventional zoom lens optical system that moves a relay lens composed of two groups in a correlated manner.

【0007】 符号7は対物レンズ系であり、符号8は接眼レンズ系である。これらの対物レ ンズ系と接眼レンズ系との間には、複数のプリズムを組み合わせた反転反射光学 系6が介在し(図中、符号Pとその両側の矢標で範囲を示した領域は、反転反射 光学系による光路長を現わす)、この反転反射光学系6と接眼レンズ系8との間 に、リレーレンズ9及び10を光軸X−X上で動かすようにしてある。図4では 、最高倍率においてリレーレンズ9及び10の夫々が相互に離れた位置を占め、 それらの位置を符号9′及び10′で示してある。これに反し、これらの位置か らリレーレンズ9及び10を互いに接近させ、これらリレーレンズ9及び10が 最も接近した位置において、最低倍率が与えられる。即ち、この実例が示すよう に、リレーレンズは、2群から成り、それらを相互に離間させたり、接近させる ことで変倍の実を挙げているが、この場合、リレーレンズは複数構成となってお り、またこれらの相互離間や接近のために、鏡枠に対し機械的にも複雑な構造が 要求され、リレーレンズの重量やそれらの移動機構のための重量も加算されて、 双眼鏡の重量を増し、また場合によっては、双眼鏡の外形的な嵩を大きくする。Reference numeral 7 denotes an objective lens system, and reference numeral 8 denotes an eyepiece lens system. An inverted reflection optical system 6 combining a plurality of prisms is interposed between the objective lens system and the eyepiece lens system (in the figure, the area indicated by the reference sign P and the arrowheads on both sides of the optical system is indicated by a symbol P). The optical path length by the inverted reflection optical system is expressed), and the relay lenses 9 and 10 are moved on the optical axis XX between the inverted reflection optical system 6 and the eyepiece lens system 8. In FIG. 4, at the highest magnification, each of the relay lenses 9 and 10 occupies a position apart from each other, and their positions are indicated by reference numerals 9 'and 10'. On the contrary, the relay lenses 9 and 10 are moved closer to each other from these positions, and the lowest magnification is given at the position where the relay lenses 9 and 10 are closest. In other words, as shown in this example, the relay lens is composed of two groups, and the fact that the magnification is changed by moving them apart or approaching each other is mentioned. In this case, the relay lens has a plurality of configurations. In addition, a mechanically complex structure is required for the lens frame to separate and approach each other, and the weight of the relay lens and the weight for their moving mechanism are added. It adds weight and, in some cases, increases the external bulk of the binoculars.

【考案が解決しようとする課題】[Problems to be solved by the invention]

本考案では、従来のこの種変倍双眼鏡における前記問題点を考慮し、主として 、視界が狭くなるのを防ぎ、広い視界をもたせ、而もリレーレンズの構成とその 移動機構を簡潔なものとして、軽量で小嵩な変倍双眼鏡を提供しようとするもの である。 In the present invention, in consideration of the above-mentioned problems in the conventional variable-magnification binoculars, mainly, a view is prevented from being narrowed, a wide view is provided, and a configuration of a relay lens and a moving mechanism thereof are simplified. It aims to provide lightweight and small-sized variable-power binoculars.

【0009】 この為、連続的な倍率変化による連続合焦機能を排して、最高倍率と最低倍率 との2点においてのみ合焦機能を発揮させることで、リレーレンズの構成を簡略 化し、その移動のための機構を簡潔にして、軽量で小嵩な変倍双眼鏡とし、携行 使用上の利便を向上するとともに、生産価格の低廉化を図らうとするものである 。For this reason, the continuous focusing function based on a continuous magnification change is eliminated, and the focusing function is exhibited only at the two points of the highest magnification and the lowest magnification, thereby simplifying the configuration of the relay lens. The purpose is to make the mechanism for moving simple, lightweight and small-sized variable-power binoculars, to improve the convenience of carrying, and to reduce the production price.

【課題を解決するための手段】[Means for Solving the Problems]

上記の目的を達成するために、本考案では、反転反射光学系と接眼レンズ系と の間で光軸上を移動するリレーレンズを単一の発散レンズ若しくは、複合された 単一の発散レンズをもって構成し、その移動領域を、最高倍率においては、反転 反射光学系の光射出面に近接した位置に設定し、最低倍率においては、接眼レン ズ系の光入射面に近接した位置に設定するとともに、これら2点の限界移動位置 においてのみ合焦可能に構成した。 In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention, a relay lens moving on the optical axis between the inverting reflection optical system and the eyepiece lens system is provided with a single diverging lens or a combined single diverging lens. At the highest magnification, the moving area is set at a position close to the light exit surface of the inverting reflection optical system, and at the lowest magnification, it is set at a position close to the light incident surface of the eyepiece lens system. Focusing was possible only at these two limit movement positions.

And a second prism consisting of a right-angled triangular crest arranged so that light on the optical axis is reflected in a horizontal plane by each surface of the roof surface of the second prism and emitted toward the eyepiece. I made it.

【0012】 反転反射光学系の別構成としては、二等辺直角三角形の斜辺を含む底面の一部 を入射光軸と直交させ、屋根面の稜線を入射光軸と直交する垂直面内に位置する ようにした直角三角とうから成る第1プリズムと、これによって、光軸上の光が 前記屋根面の各面により水平内で反射され、前記底面の他の部分から、入射光軸 と平行する反対方向に射出される反射光を、二等辺直角三角形の斜辺を含む底面 の一部で受けるように、屋根面の稜線を入射光軸と直交する垂直面内に位置する ように配置した直角三角とうから成る第2プリズムとの組み合わせとし、第2プ リズムの屋根面の各面により、光軸上の光を垂直面内で反射して接眼レンズ側に 向けて射出するようにしてもよい。As another configuration of the inverting reflection optical system, a part of the bottom surface including the hypotenuse of the isosceles right triangle is orthogonal to the incident optical axis, and the ridge of the roof surface is located in a vertical plane orthogonal to the incident optical axis.

A right-angled triangle with its ridgeline on the roof surface located in a vertical plane perpendicular to the incident optical axis so that reflected light emitted in the direction is received by a part of the bottom surface including the hypotenuse of the isosceles right triangle. The second prism may be combined with the second prism, and the light on the optical axis may be reflected in a vertical plane and emitted toward the eyepiece lens by each surface of the roof surface of the second prism.

本考案における特徴を端的に示すための光学的素子の配置を図1に示した。 FIG. 1 shows an arrangement of optical elements for clearly showing the features of the present invention.

【0014】 この場合、対物レンズ系と接眼レンズ系との間の可動リレーレンズは、単一の凹 レンズで示してあるが、複数のレンズをもって1群を構成してもよい。単一の凹 レンズで構成することは、重量の軽減を図り、その移動々作を軽快、円滑にする 上で好ましく、対物レンズ系や接眼レンズ系の夫々の構成によっては、収差除去 の関係で、複数1群で構成してもよい。In this case, the movable relay lens between the objective lens system and the eyepiece lens system is shown as a single concave lens, but a plurality of lenses may constitute one group. It is preferable to use a single concave lens to reduce the weight and to make the movement light and smooth, and depending on the configuration of the objective lens system and the eyepiece lens system, it may be necessary to remove aberrations. , A plurality of groups.

【0015】 対物レンズ系と接眼レンズ系との間に介在させる反転反射光学系としてのプリ ズム群は、直角三角とうの互いに直交する面の一方を入射光軸に向けて該光軸と 直交させた第1プリズムと、このプリズムの直交する他方の面に対し、二等辺直 角三角形の斜辺を含む底面の一部を対向させ、且つ屋根面の稜線を入射光軸と平 行に位置させた直角三角とうから成る第2プリズムと、第2プリズムの前記底面 の他の部分に対し、直角三角とうの互いに直交する一方の面を対向させ、直交す る他方の面を射出面とした第3プリズムとをもって、反転反射光学系とすること もできるが、重量軽減と小型化の目的からすれば、図1に示すように、二等辺直 角三角形の斜辺を含む底面の一部を入射光軸と直交させ、屋根面の稜線を入射光 軸と直交する水平面内に位置するようにした直角三角とうから成る第1プリズム と、これによって、前記屋根面の各面により垂直面内で反射し、前記底面の他の 部分から入射光軸と平行する反対方向に射出される反射光を、二等辺直角三角形 の斜辺を含む底面の一部で受けるように、屋根面の稜線を入射光軸と直交する垂 直面内に位置するように配置した直角三角とうから成る第2プリズムとを組み合 わせ、第2プリズムの屋根面の各面により水平面内で反射して接眼レンズ側に向 けて光軸上の光を射出する反転反射光学系を用いることが望ましい。A prism group as a reversing reflection optical system interposed between the objective lens system and the eyepiece lens system is configured such that one of surfaces orthogonal to each other of a right-angled triangle is directed toward the incident optical axis and is orthogonal to the optical axis.

【実施例】【Example】

図1は、本考案の広視界変倍双眼鏡の光学系の一例を示すものであり、図中、 11は、凸レンズと、凹レンズとの2枚を1群で構成した対物レンズ系を示し、 12は、凸レンズを前面に、凸レンズ凹レンズとの2枚からなる複合レンズを後 面に配置した2群から成る接眼レンズ系である。これら対物レンズ系11と接眼 レンズ系12との間には、プリズムをもって、構成要部とした周知の反転反射光 学系を介在させてある。 FIG. 1 shows an example of an optical system of a wide-field variable-magnification binocular according to the present invention. In the drawing, reference numeral 11 denotes an objective lens system in which two lenses, a convex lens and a concave lens, are configured as one group. Is an eyepiece system composed of two groups in which a complex lens composed of two lenses, a convex lens on the front surface and a convex lens concave lens, is arranged on the rear surface. Between the objective lens system 11 and the eyepiece system 12, a well-known inverted reflection optical system, which is a main component, is interposed with a prism.

【0018】 図示の実例では、 二等辺直角三角形の斜辺を含む底面17の一部を入射光軸X−X′と直交させ、 屋根面の稜線15を入射光軸X−X′と直交する水平面内に位置するようにした 直角三角とうから成る第1プリズム13と、 これによって、前記屋根面の各面により垂直面内で反射し、前記底面17の他の 部分から入射光線とは反対方向に射出する反射光を、二等辺直角三角形の斜辺を 含む底面18の一部で受けるように、屋根面の稜線16を入射光軸X−X′と直 交する垂直面内に位置するように配置した直角三角とうから成る第2プリズム1 4とを組み合わせ、 第2プリズム14の屋根面の各面により水平面内で反射して接眼レンズの側に向 けて光軸X−X′上の光を光軸Y−Y′の方向に射出する反転反射光学系を用い てある。In the illustrated example, a part of the bottom surface 17 including the hypotenuse of the isosceles right triangle is made orthogonal to the incident optical axis XX ′, and the ridgeline 15 of the roof surface is made a horizontal plane orthogonal to the incident optical axis XX ′. A first prism 13 consisting of a right-angled triangular cone, which is reflected in a vertical plane by each surface of the roof surface, from the other part of the bottom surface 17 in a direction opposite to the incident light beam. The ridgeline 16 of the roof surface is arranged so as to be positioned in a vertical plane orthogonal to the incident optical axis XX 'so that the reflected light to be emitted is received by a part of the bottom surface 18 including the hypotenuse of the isosceles right triangle. And a second prism 14 composed of a right-angled triangular cone, which is reflected in a horizontal plane by each surface of the roof surface of the second prism 14 and reflects the light on the optical axis XX 'toward the eyepiece. An inverted reflection optical system that emits light in the direction of the optical axis Y-Y ' It is had.

【0019】 本実施例の場合、前記反転反射光学系による光射出面と接眼レンズ系12との間 に、単一のリレーレンズ20を介在してあり、実線をもって示したリレーレンズ 20の位置は、高倍率の変倍領域において占める位置を現わし、点線をもって示 したリレーレンズの位置20′は、同リレーレンズ20が前進移動して低倍率の 変倍領域において占める位置を現わしている。In the case of this embodiment, a single relay lens 20 is interposed between the light exit surface of the inverted reflection optical system and the eyepiece system 12, and the position of the relay lens 20 indicated by a solid line is The position 20 'of the relay lens indicated by a dotted line indicates the position occupied in the high magnification variable region, and the position occupied in the low magnification variable region by the forward movement of the relay lens 20.

【0020】 即ち、これらの前進移動限界位置及び後退移動限界位置の2点においてのみ合焦 させるようにすることで、複数のリレーレンズの相関的な動きや、これに伴なう 複雑なレンズ駆動の手段を必要とせずに、単一のリレーレンズによって、充分合 焦成果を得ることができる。That is, by focusing only at these two points, ie, the forward movement limit position and the backward movement limit position, the correlated movement of a plurality of relay lenses and the complicated lens driving accompanying the movement are performed. A single relay lens can achieve sufficient focusing results without the need for the means described above.

【0021】 この場合、前進移動するリレーレンズ20は、少なくとも、前進位置において 、その外形周縁が第1プリズム13の側面と接触せずに、光射出光軸Y−Y′と 直交する平坦な第2プリズム14の底面18と極く接近した位置を占めるように 、寸法的設計を施すことにより、双眼鏡としての光軸上の長さ(X−Y′)によ り規制を受ける全長を短くして、より小形化するのに役立てる。In this case, at least in the forward position, the outer peripheral edge of the forwardly moving relay lens 20 does not contact the side surface of the first prism 13, and the flat second lens 20 is orthogonal to the light emission optical axis YY ′. The dimensional design is made so as to occupy a position very close to the bottom surface 18 of the two prisms 14, thereby shortening the total length restricted by the length (X-Y ') on the optical axis as the binoculars. To help make it more compact.

【考案の効果】[Effect of the invention]

この考案の変倍双眼鏡では、単一のリレーレンズ、若しくは複合された単一群 のリレーレンズをもって、その前進移動限界点及び後退移動限界点の2点だけで 合焦させるようにしたので、変倍双眼鏡でありながら、広視界を得ることが出来 、更に、リレーレンズの構成が簡単であり、またリレーレンズ移動のための駆動 機構も簡潔な構造とすることが可能となり、その結果、重量を軽減して小嵩に纏 め得て、携行及び操作性を向上し、部品点数少なく、組立て、生産上の経費を節 減して、廉価に提供できるという利点がある。 In the variable-power binoculars of this invention, a single relay lens or a combined single group of relay lenses is used to focus only at the forward movement limit point and the backward movement limit point. Despite the binoculars, a wide field of view can be obtained, the structure of the relay lens is simple, and the driving mechanism for moving the relay lens can be simplified, resulting in a reduction in weight. It has the advantage that it can be provided in a small bulk, improves portability and operability, reduces the number of parts, reduces assembly and production costs, and can be provided at a low cost.
