Abstract

A telescopic sight includes at least one main tube and a reticule with a reticule adjusting device arranged on the main tube for adjusting the reticule and an optical focusing means with a focus adjusting device arranged on the main tube for focusing the optical focusing means, characterised in that the reticule adjusting device and the focus adjusting device are arranged in the form of an integrated adjusting device, preferably in the form of an integrated adjusting turret, jointly on the main tube.

Claims (23)

1. A telescopic sight comprising:

a main tube;

a reticule;

a reticule adjusting device arranged on the main tube for adjusting the reticule;

an optical focusing device and

a focus adjusting device arranged on the main tube for focusing the optical focusing device,

wherein the reticule adjusting device and the focus adjusting device are arranged so as to jointly form of an integrated adjusting device on the main tube.

2. The telescopic sight according to claim 1 , wherein the integrated adjusting device is an integrated adjusting turret.

3. The telescopic sight according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the devices selected from the group consisting of the reticule adjusting device and the focus adjusting device has a rotatable or pivotable actuating element.

4. The telescopic sight according to claim 3 , wherein the rotatable or pivotable actuating element is configured to be actuatable by hand.

5. The telescopic sight according to claim 3 , wherein each of the reticule adjusting device and the focus adjusting device has a rotatable or pivotable actuating element, and the rotatable or pivotable actuating element of the reticule adjusting device is arranged substantially coaxially with the rotatable or pivotable actuating element of the focus adjusting device.

6. The telescopic sight according to claim 3 , wherein the rotatable or pivotable actuating element is a rotary knob or a rotary ring.

7. The telescopic sight according to claim 3 , wherein each of the reticule adjusting device and the focus adjusting device has a rotatable or pivotable actuating element, and the rotatable or pivotable actuating element of the reticule adjusting device is a rotary knob and the rotatable or pivotable actuating element of the focus adjusting device is a rotary ring.

8. The telescopic sight according to claim 7 , wherein the rotary ring surrounds the rotary knob.

9. The telescopic sight according to claim 7 , wherein the reticule adjusting device for adjusting the reticule has a spindle which is axially displaceable by rotation.

10. The telescopic sight according to claim 7 , wherein the focus adjusting device has an inner ring mounted eccentrically in the rotary ring for converting a rotary movement into a linear movement.

11. The telescopic sight according to claim 1 , wherein the reticule adjusting device is configured for at least one adjustment selected from a group consisting of a height adjustment and a lateral adjustment of the reticule.

12. The telescopic sight according to claim 1 , wherein the reticule adjusting device and the focus adjusting device are capable of being coupled for automatic ballistic correction.

13. The telescopic sight according to claim 1 , wherein the main tube has a central tube arranged between an objective lens region and an eyepiece region and the integrated adjusting device is arranged in the region of the central tube.

14. The telescopic sight according to claim 13 , wherein at least one region selected from a group consisting of an objective lens region of the main tube and an eyepiece region of the main tube has a larger diameter than the central tube.

15. The telescopic sight according to claim 1 , wherein the integrated adjusting device is arranged on the top on the main tube in an operative position of the telescopic sight.

16. The telescopic sight according to claim 1 , wherein the reticule is integrated into a reversal system of the telescopic sight.

17. The telescopic sight according to claim 1 , wherein the reticule adjusting device and the focus adjusting device are arranged in a combined adjusting device which is fixed on the main tube.
