Translations for tripod in French

Here are paragraphs from public domain books translated:

The telescope, a formidable instrument mounted upon a tripod, stood upon the flat leads of the house. Frankland clapped his eye to it and gave a cry of satisfaction.	Un énorme télescope, monté sur un trépied, encombrait le faîte de la maison. Avidement, Frankland y appliqua son œil et poussa un cri de satisfaction.
