Linhof Technika and acessories

So I think the lensless lens board may have used to attach a microscope adapter. The adapter and the Zeiss macro lens both can screw into the board.
Do all lens boards have this inner mount ring or would this be a lens board specifically for microscopy and macro work?
Thanks for your help.

As pictured here that is the Linhof Micro Lens Board for mounting the camera to microscopes that have a standard society tube. The board for macro photography has a tapered tube that the shutter is mounted to so it is easier to control lighting near the lens. The Micro tube is shorter and not tapered as the light comes through the microscope draw tube. Your image of the Zeiss Luminar does show the end of the tapered part of the Macro board.

Thanks for the help with identification.
What were the use of these? The second item is thread at the bottom. Both were in the Zeiss Ikon box pictured.

I can't tell from those pictures. It would help if the resolution on the box label was higher as well as whatever is printed on the ring.

Must have belonged to St. Ansel -- nobody else in the world has that many filters.

I am guessing that there are three uncommon filters there: an opaque infrared, a deep red (for IR) and a polarizer. See the dark filters on the right.

The box probably held a lens shade to be used with a bellows.
