1. A binocular telescope mountable on a headgear, comprising:
- two optical systems, one for each eye of a user, each system having an optical axis comprising at least an objective lens and an eyelens, andmeans for attaching said systems to a headgear, said attaching means including means for pivoting said optical systems, with said headgear in position on a user'"'"'s head, so that said objective lenses and said eyelenses can be pivoted about individual axes in a predetermined sequence out of the way to facilitate free and unaided vision in a first position, and returned to a second position of telescope-aided vision.

Abstract
A binocular telescope mountable on a headgear, which comprises two optical systems, one for each of the user, each system constituting at least an objective lens and an eyelens. The telescope is pivotably attached to the headgear. When the headgear is in position on the user'"'"'s head, the objective lenses and the eyelenses can be swiveled out of the way to facilitate free and unaided vision, and returned to the position of telescope-aided vision.

20. A binocular telescope mountable to a headgear, comprising:
-
two optical systems, each optical system comprising at least an objective lens and an eyelens, and means for attaching each of said optical systems to a support member of a headgear, said attaching means including means for pivoting said optical systems about individual axes, between a first position in which said optical systems are substantially aligned with an axis of view of a user'"'"'s eye and a second position in which said optical systems are pivoted away from the axis of view of a user'"'"'s eye to enable unaided vision, said pivoting means comprising individual pivot axes for each of said optical systems and means for detecting said optical systems in each of said first and second positions, said detecting means comprising elements connected to said optical systems, for positioning said optical systems in said first and second positions and cooperating with cooperating elements connected to opposite surfaces of the support member of a headgear. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23)
