  • Patent number: 11926268
    Abstract: An imager assembly for a vehicular camera module includes an imager circuit board and a lens holder. An imager is disposed at the imager circuit board. The lens holder includes a lens holding portion that accommodates a lens. The lens holder includes a plurality of pins extending from an attaching portion and extending in a direction away from the lens holding portion of the lens holder. With the attaching portion of the lens holder at the imager circuit board, individual pins of the plurality of pins are received at least partially through respective apertures of the imager circuit board to locate the lens holder at the imager circuit board. With the pins received at least partially through the apertures of the imager circuit board, and with the lens aligned with the imager at the imager circuit board, the pins are fixedly attached at the imager circuit board.

  • Patent number: 4429660
    Abstract: A fish feeder assembly having at least one water receiving container eccentrically mounted on a rotatable shaft for oscillating the shaft as the container is sequentially filled with water and emptied when the container and shaft are pivoted by the weight of the water. The assembly includes a frame having an interior portion defining a longitudinal opening, a feed bin having at its lower portion a passageway communicating with the longitudinal opening for passage of fish feed, a metering rotor securedly affixed to the shaft and essentially filling a transverse sectional area of the passageway for rotation whereupon metered portions of fish feed are dispensed from the hopper through the longitudinal opening in the frame.
