LED based candelabra lamp
A LED lamp has a non-optically transmissive base connected to an optically transmissive enclosure. A LED assembly emits light when energized through an electrical path from the base. A portion of the heat sink and lamp electronics extend from the base and into the enclosure such that at least an upper portion of the heat sink extends into the interior volume defined by the enclosure. The LED assembly is supported on top of the heat sink such that the LEDs are disposed in the volume of the enclosure. An optic element extends over the LEDs and at least the portion of the heat sink. The size of the non-optically transmissive base of the lamp is reduced relative to the optically transmissive enclosure such that a greater ratio of optically transmissive view space to non-optically transmissive base is provided.
Core-shell fluorescent material and a light source device including the same
A core-shell fluorescent material and a light source device using the same are disclosed. The core-shell fluorescent material includes a core and a shell for generating an emitting light with wavelength within 520 and 800 nm after absorbing an exciting light with wavelength within 370 and 500 nm. The core may include yellow, green or red fluorescent powder, and the shell includes manganese (IV)-doped fluoride compound. The light source device generally includes the core-shell fluorescent material, a radiation source, leads and a package. The leads provide current to the radiation source and cause the radiation source to emit radiation. The core-shell fluorescent material is coated on the package for receiving the radiation so as to generate a high quality emission served as the desired light source for the field of lighting and displaying.
Asymmetric linear LED luminaire design for uniform illuminance and color
An LED lamp for illuminating a surface under a flat angle in linear lighting applications such as cove lighting and wall washing is provided. It produces a uniform intensity distribution and a uniform color output throughout the beam pattern of the light beam produced by a multi-color LED light source. The lamp comprises a body of an extruded profile. The body comprises at least one section with a mirrored surface and at least a lens section which allows exiting of light from the body. At least one LED preferably having a LED lens is provided at the inner side of the body. This combination of optical systems results in an asymmetric beam pattern from the source.
Control device for controlling multiple operating characteristics of an electrical load
A load control device may be configured to control multiple characteristics of one or more electrical loads such as the intensity and color of a lighting load. The load control device may include concentric rotating portions for adjusting the multiple characteristics. A control circuit of the load control device may be configured to generate control data for controlling one or more of the characteristics of the electrical loads in response to rotations of the concentric rotating portions. The control circuit may be further configured to provide feedback regarding the control being applied on one or more visual indicators. The load control device may be a wall-mounted dimmer device or a battery-powered remote control device.
Flexible LED assemblies and LED light bulbs
LED assemblies and related LED light bulbs. An LED assembly has a flexible, transparent substrate, an LED chip on the first surface and electrically connected to two adjacent conductive sections, a first wavelength conversion layer, formed on the first surface to substantially cover the LED chip, and a second wavelength conversion layer formed on the second surface. The flexible, transparent substrate has first and second surfaces opposite to each other, and several conductive sections, which are separately formed on the first surface.
Color mixing optics for LED lighting
Color mixing optics for a multi-color LED lamp comprise an outer reflector having a paraboloidal surface of revolution and a total inner reflection (TIR) lens having an outer contour with a paraboloidal surface of revolution. The outer reflector and the TIR lens are centered around a common center axis. A common focal point of the outer reflector and the TIR lens is provided for placing a LED assembly. Such LED lamps produce uniform color throughout the entire light beam while the outer dimensions are such that the optics fit into conventional lamp housings.
Lighting fixture with 2D array of closely-packed LED components
An LED lighting fixture includes a housing; a substrate located within the housing; a plurality of LED groups of various colors mounted on the substrate, each LED color group including multiple LED components; at least one circuit communicating with a power supply and adapted for powering the LED components; and an optical component located at an output end of the housing. The LED components are arranged along first and second directions orthogonal to one another, such that no two LED of the same color reside adjacent one another along both of the first and second directions, and each LED component is spaced-apart from an adjacent LED component a distance no greater than 1.0 mm.
Light engine configured to be between a power source and another light engine
A LED based lighting apparatus is disclosed. The light engine used in the lighting apparatus may use printed circuit board and have a plurality of LED groups that are independently controllable by a control unit. The power supply input and return paths connected to each LED group may be implemented on different layers to allow a compact footprint that may be used with traditional fluorescent encasements with relatively little modification. The LEDs may comprise a subset of LEDs having a first colour and a subset of LEDs having a second colour different from said first colour intertwined on the light engine.

Device and method for pressure-molding anti-overheating CSP fluorescent membrane
Disclosed are a device and a method for pressure-molding an anti-overheating CSP fluorescent membrane. The device comprises a frame, a mould pressing device, a force measuring device, a control device and a feeding device; and the mould pressing device comprises an upper pressing mould, an upper clamp, a lower pressing mould, a guide post, an elastic supporting structure, and a lower clamp. As the stage of pressing the elastic supporting structure is added to the course of pressure molding, a mould clamping force of the pressure molding increases in a relatively steady way, and a force impact of a mould clamping device is reduced, thereby easily determining an initial point for maintain temperature of the pressure molding. The present invention effectively prevents overheating caused by long-term and large-area contact between the lower clamp and the heating lower pressing mould, and avoids the process defect of premature melting of the fluorescent membrane due to overheating, thereby greatly improving the product consistency and yield rate of the CSP-package fluorescent membrane in the pressure molding process.
