Abstract

An electronic telescope is provided, including a main body, a lens module, a display module, and a single eyepiece. The main body includes an objective end and an eyepiece end which is opposite to the objective end. The lens module is disposed on the objective end. The display module connects to the lens module and is configured to display an image captured from the lens module. The single eyepiece lens with a single focus has a longitudinal structure and is disposed on the eyepiece end, wherein the eyepiece lens corresponds to the user's two eyes.

Claims (20)

1. An electronic telescope, comprising:

a main body, including an objective end and an eyepiece end which is opposite to the objective end;

a lens module disposed on the objective end;

a display module, connected to the lens module and configured to display an image captured from the lens module; and

a single eyepiece lens with a single focus, which has a longitudinal structure and is disposed on the eyepiece end, wherein the eyepiece lens corresponds to a user's two eyes;

wherein the main body further has an observation room situated between the objective end and the eyepiece end, and the observation room has a tapered structure with a first end and a second end respectively corresponding to the objective end and an eyepiece end,

wherein an opening of the tapered structure of the observation room is narrower on the first end than on the second end, and the display module is disposed on the first end.

2. The electronic telescope as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the eyepiece lens is a convex lens.

3. The electronic telescope as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the eyepiece lens has a first side and an opposite second side, the first side is farther away from display module than the second side, and a radius of curvature of the eyepiece lens on the first side has a range of 280 mm to 330 mm.

4. The electronic telescope as claimed in claim 3 , wherein a radius of curvature of the eyepiece lens on the second side has a range of 100 mm to 150 mm.

5. The electronic telescope as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a light-emitting diode (LED) assembly, disposed on the objective end and adjacent to the lens module.

6. The electronic telescope as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the LED assembly includes a plurality of light-emitting diodes, and the light-emitting diodes are arranged in a matrix.

7. The electronic telescope as claimed in claim 6 , wherein a circuit board connects the lens module and the display, and a charge-coupled device is disposed on the circuit board.

8. The electronic telescope as claimed in claim 5 , further comprising a circuit board disposed in the main body, wherein the lens module and the LED assembly are disposed on the circuit board, and the length of the lens module is greater than the length of the circuit board in a direction of the central axis of the main body.

9. The electronic telescope as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the observation room includes a first inner wall and a second inner wall which are facing each other, and the first and second inner walls extend aslant with respect to a central axis of the main body from the objective end to the eyepiece end.

10. The electronic telescope as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the first and the second walls include a plurality of scattering structures.

11. The electronic telescope as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising an adjusting wheel configured to adjust a focus of the lens module, and the adjusting wheel is disposed on a bottom of the main body.

12. The electronic telescope as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the main body further has two receiving spaces disposed on a bottom of the main body, configured to receive a non-rechargeable battery and a rechargeable battery, respectively.

13. The electronic telescope as claimed in claim 1 , wherein an upper surface of the main body has a plurality of protrusions.

14. The electronic telescope as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising an eyeshield disposed on the eyepiece end, wherein a length of the eyeshield in a long axis direction is at least 30 mm longer than a length of the eyepiece lens.
