Head-mounted optical direct visualization system
First Claim
1. A head-mounted optical visualization system for a user, the system comprising:
- an image source for generating a virtual image;
an optical deflecting device including an optical end element;
said optical deflecting device being optically connected to said image source for receiving said virtual image and for deflecting said virtual image to said optical end element whereby said virtual image is provided in the viewing field of said user in front of the eyes of said user;
a frame mountable on the head of said user for carrying said optical deflecting system; and
, an adjusting device attached to said frame for variably changing the position of said optical end element substantially in a plane parallel to said viewing field of said user.

Abstract
A head-mounted optical direct visualization system has at least one optical deflecting device (120) with an optical end element (128) for deflecting a virtual image generated by an image source (230) onto the optical end element (128). The virtual image is emitted through the optical end element into the field of view in front of the eyes of the user. The optical deflecting device (120) is attached to the head of the user with the aid of a frame (130). The task of the invention is to configure such a conventional direct visualization system so as to be better adaptable to the requirements of the anatomical and optical features of the user and the application-specific viewing requirements. This task is solved with an adjusting device (140), which is fixed to the frame (130), for variably changing the position of at least the optical end element (128) essentially in a plane parallel to the field of view of the user.
