An optical range indicating device, having no moving parts, having a pair of mirrors arranged to embody the principle of triangulation, one of the mirrors being positioned to sight the object to be viewed and having thereon distance indicating indicia, the other mirror being positioned to provide a view of the image of the sighted object and of the distance indicating indicia the mirrors being unitarily pivoted about an axis to align a direct line of sight view of the sighted object with the reflected image of the sighted object superposed upon the reflected image of the distance indicating indicia as seen on the other mirror to indicate the distance to the sighted object.

An optical device to indicate a measured distance to a sighted object, having in combination a unitary device, of which all parts thereof have no relative movement, comprising a housing having an elongated angular form in plan having a pair of spaced top and bottom walls having therebetween a pair of spaced side walls in an opposed relation, one of said side walls having an angled portion conforming to the perimeter of the top and bottom walls thereabove and therebelow, a mirror carried by said angled wall portion facing in the direction of a sighted object, said side walls having a pair of corresponding end wall portions spaced apart to permit said mirror to have a line of sight to sighted object and to bear the image of said object, indicia on said mirror comprising distance measurement markers, said side walls having their corresponding other end portions spaced apart to form a window, a mirror aligned with said window positioned to reflect the image of a sighted object and the measurement markers from said first mentioned mirror, the other of said side walls carrying said second mentioned mirror upon a portion thereof to be seen through said window, wherein views of the sighted object are sighted partially by direct line of sight by the operator and partially by reflection upon said second mentioned mirror of the image of the sighted object upon said first mentioned mirror and by coincidence of said views upon a reflected measurement marker upon said second mentioned mirror by pivoting said housing upon a vertical axis to ascertain the distance of the sighted object.
