Abstract
An optical assembly includes a connecting bridge to link up two autonomous optical units. The optical units are electronically connected to an analyzer. The connecting bridge is fitted each time with at least one coupling for each optical unit, said coupling making it possible, besides a mechanical coupling action, for the transmission of electronic signals and/or setting up an electric connection.
Claims6
An optical assembly (100) comprising:
- a connecting bridge (10),
- and two monoculars (110),
- a first of the two monoculars (110) comprising an own first battery-based power unit and an own first drive elements, a second of the two monoculars (110) comprising an own second battery-based power unit and own second drive elements,
- each of the two monoculars (110) fitted with a coupling (120) having mechanical coupling elements (122) that are designed for a mechanical coupling (20) of the connecting bridge (10),
- the connecting bridge (10) further comprising an analyzer (40),
- wherein both of the two monoculars (110), the two monoculars (110) still including respective own first and second battery-based power units and the respective own first and second drive elements, are coupled, using the mechanical coupling elements (122), to the mechanical coupling (20) of the connecting bridge (20) with the analyzer (40), and
- both of the two monoculars (110) are connected electronically to the analyzer (40), the analyzer (40) is connected electronically to a regulator (50) for a purpose of exchanging signals and regulating, as a function of signals of the analyzer, at least one of the two monoculars (110) and
- the two monoculars (110) are consolidated into one assembly such that when actuating one of the respectively own drive elements of one of the two monoculars (110), a corresponding same function in the other of the two monoculars (110) is switched on by means of the analyzer (40) and the regulator (50).
