Abstract: An enclosure such as an electrical junction box has fixed clamping flanges exterior to the enclosure, screws rotatable relative to the enclosure and operative for drawing clamping brackets from an initial elevated position towards the clamping flanges for clamping the edges of an opening cut in drywall or the like, thereby to fasten the enclosure inside a wall or ceiling. The clamping brackets are initially retracted in the enclosure and rotation of the screws releases the brackets to an extended clamping position relative to the clamping flanges.

Abstract: An image sensor die may include a pixel array formed in an image sensor substrate and covered by a transparent cover layer. The transparent cover layer may be attached to the image sensor substrate using adhesive. Electrical interconnect structures such as conductive vias may be formed in the transparent cover layer and may be used in conveying electrical signals between the image sensor and a printed circuit board. The conductive vias may have one end coupled to a bond pad on the upper surface of the transparent cover layer and an opposing end coupled to a bond pad on the upper surface of the image sensor substrate. The conductive vias may pass through openings that extend through the transparent cover layer and the adhesive. Conductive structures such as wire bonds, stud bumps, or solder balls may be coupled to the bond pads on the surface of the transparent cover layer.

Abstract: A screening machine includes a rotary trommel screen having an overall length. The rotary trommel screen has an inlet and an outlet end. The screening machine includes a first collection area proximate to the inlet end and under the rotary trommel screen. The first collection area corresponds to at least 65 percent of the overall length of the trommel screen. The screening machine includes a second collection area proximate to the outlet end and under the rotary trommel screen. The second collection area corresponds to the remainder of the overall length of the trommel screen not corresponding to the first collection area. The first and second collection areas are configured to separate a first and second product respectively. Sections of the trommel screen corresponding to the first and second collection areas are configured such that a size of the first product is different than a size of the second product.
