A package for an image sensor includes a lead frame having a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface; an image sensor mounted on the first surface of the lead frame; an optical cover spanning the first surface; and a plastic, optically transparent window in the optical cover and aligned with the image sensor.

Plastic image sensor packaging for image sensors

A cover and method of protecting and testing an image sensor. The cover is designed to be mounted on a supporting substrate in which the sensor is mounted. The substrate has a generally planer surface with the image sensor being mounted below the generally planer surface. Cover includes a body portion which extends over the image sensor and has means for removably mounting and demounting the cover from the substrate. The cover further includes a window area such that use and/or test of said sensor may occur through said window when the cover is mounted to said substrate.

Plastic cover for image sensors

A method and apparatus for imprinting a sublimation transfer onto a generally cup-shaped or tubular structure. The apparatus includes a support structure for holding of the structure. A blower is provided for providing a flow of heating air to the interior surface of the structure. A control device is provided for directing the flow of heating air in a uniform manner about the interior surface of the structure.

Method and apparatus for transferring images onto a tubular structure

A method and apparatus for imprinting a sublimation transfer onto a generally cup-shaped structure. The apparatus comprises a support structure for holding the cup-shaped structure and a cover mounted to the apparatus for movement between an open position and a closed position. The cover when in the closed position forms a heating chamber wherein the cup-shaped structure is positioned for heating. A heating tower is provided on the support structure and has a shape such that the cup-shaped structure can be placed in the inverted position over the tower without touching the tower. The heating tower includes an electrical heating wire that is wrapped about a support structure and is capable of heating the cup-shaped structure.
