DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0106] In FIG. 11, a LED bulb apparatus has a bulb shell 8801, a head cap 8802, a driver circuit 8803 and at least one light strip 8804.

[0107] The bulb shell 8801 has a light passing shell 8805 and a bottom portion 8806. A head cap has a neck portion 8807, a first electrode 8808 and a second electrode 8809. The neck portion 8807 of the head cap 8802 is connected to the bottom portion 8806 of the bulb shell 8801 forming a container space 8811. The first electrode 8808 and the second electrode 8809 may be a lateral wall metal wall and a bottom metal pin in an Edison cap.

[0108] The driver circuit 8803 is stored in the head cap 8802 for receiving an external power from the first electrode 8808 and the second electrode 8809 to generate a driving current.

[0109] There may be one or multiple light strips 8804. Each light strip 8804 has a substrate 8812, a top end 8813, a bottom end 8814 and multiple LED modules 8815. The multiple LED modules 8815 are mounted on the substrate 8812. A fluorescent layer 8816 covers the multiple LED modules 8815. The driving current is transmitted via at least one of the top end 8813 and the bottom end 8814 of the light strip 8804 to the LED modules 8815. The substrate 8812 has a light transmittance less than 50%. Specifically, the substrate 8812 is not transparent. Light does not completely pass through the substrate or is completely blocked by the substrate. The substrate may be an elongated structure. In some embodiments, the substrate allows certain ratio of light to pass through, e.g. 20% to 30% light passing through the substrate.

[0110] In some embodiments, the substrate of the light strip includes a ceramic layer (not shown, indicating a component and material of the substrate). Specifically, the ceramic layer may be made of Al2O3 material, which has much better heat dissipation characteristic than common transparent material.

[0111] In some embodiments, the substrate is a flexible printed circuit board (not shown, indicating a component and material of the substrate) with copper material attached to increase heat dissipation effect. Blue gem layer may also be used in some embodiments. Soft aluminum strip may also be used forming the substrate in some embodiments.

[0112] In FIG. 12, the light strip further including at least one heat dissipation strip 8819 fixed to the substrate 8818, the heat dissipation strip 8819 is heat conductive to the LED modules 8817 and electricity insulated from the LED module 8817 for carrying heat of the LED modules 8817 away from the LED modules 8817.

[0113] In some embodiments, the substrate of the light strip includes a translucent glass layer (not shown, indicating a component and material of the substrate).

[0114] In some embodiments, the substrate of the light strip includes a graphene layer (not shown, indicating a component and material of the substrate).

[0115] In FIG. 13, the substrate 8820 has a top side 8823 and a bottom side 8824. The top side 8823 and the bottom side 8824 are respectively mounted with LED modules 8821, 8822. Specifically, one light strip has two sides of light sources for emitting light from both sides in such embodiments.

[0116] In FIG. 13, the LED modules 8821 on the top side of the substrate may have a different color temperature as the color temperature of the LED modules 8822 on the bottom side of the substrate. The color temperatures of two sides of a light strip are different makes the light strip bringing a richer visual effect better than single color temperature.

[0117] In FIG. 11, the LED bulb apparatus may also include a central column 8825 supporting multiple light strips 8804. There may be supporting metal strips 8826, 8827 for fixing the light strip 8804 to expand the light strip in a desired position to adjust light emitting pattern.

[0118] In some embodiments, the central column is made of transparent material, e.g. glass or transparent plastic material.

[0119] In FIG. 11, the LED bulb apparatus may also include a base part 8828. The central column 8825 is extended from the base part 8828. The base part 8828 has an air passage 8829 for filling the heat dissipation air 8811 into the container space 8811 before the air passage 8829 is sealed for forming the container space 8811 together with the bulb shell 8801.

[0120] In FIG. 11, the container space 8811 is sealed to keep a heat dissipation air 8830 storing in the container space. The heat dissipation air 8830 including oxygen.

[0121] In some embodiments, the oxygen occupies 1% to 10% of the heat dissipation air 8830, e.g. mole number or weight of the oxygen relative to overall heat dissipation air.

[0122] In some embodiments, the oxygen occupies 3% to 8% of the heat dissipation air.

[0123] In some embodiments, the heat dissipation air 8830 includes sparkling particles 8831 flowing within the container space 8811 when heat of the LED modules 8815 heats the heat dissipation air 8830. Such sparkling particles 8831 add visual effect of the light bulb. Such sparkling particles 8831 may be made of small particles with reflective appearance easily floating and moving in the container space. Heat of the LED modules makes air flowing in the container space and brings the sparkling particles to move around.

[0124] In some embodiments, the heat dissipation air 8830 includes Helium.

[0125] In FIG. 14A, the substrate is a prism structure with a first side 8832 and a second side 8833 for respectively mounting the LED modules. The first side 8832 and the second side 8833 have a tilt angle between 20 degrees to 160 degrees.

[0126] In FIG. 14B, the substrate is a tube structure 8834 with an inner space 8835.

[0127] In some embodiments, a heat dissipation material 8836 is filled in the inner space 8835 of the substrate.

[0128] In some embodiments, the LED modules have multiple types having different optical parameters for mixing a mixed optical parameter controlled by the driver circuit. This not shown in the drawings because the LED modules are shown in drawings and it is known to persons of ordinary skilled in the art that the types of the LED modules may be varied and placed on the same substrate.

[0129] In some embodiments, the LED modules are electrically connected forming an inverted LED path having two ends terminals on only one of the top end and the bottom end. With such design, it is easier to connect multiple light strips to form a parallel connection, a series connection, a hybrid connection because only ends, either on the top ends or on the bottom ends are necessary to transmit electricity to the LED modules on the light strips.

[0130] For example, in FIG. 15, LED modules 8837 on a substrate 8839 are connected with a conductive path 8838 forming an inverted LED path which two end terminals 8840, 8841 are on the top end or the bottom end of the light strip.

[0131] In FIG. 16, the bulb shell 8842 has a first shape. In FIG. 17, the bulb shell 8843 has another shape. In other words, the invention may be applied in different types of light bulbs.

[0132] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a light bulb apparatus has a head cup, a bottom support, multiple light strips and a bulb shell.

[0133] The head cup is designed to be connected to an external power source, e.g. complying with various Edison bulb cap standards. The head cup also has a containing space for storing a driver circuit for converting external power source to proper driving current to drive the LED components of the light apparatus.

[0134] The bottom support is connected and extended from the head cup. Parts of the bottom support are made of glass material. To provide better heat dissipation, heat dissipation air may be introduced into the bulb apparatus. In such case, the glass part of the bottom support may have a through hole to letting heat dissipation air into the bulb apparatus and then sealed during manufacturing.

[0135] The bottom support may be integrated with the bulb shell when they are both made of glass material. In addition to the glass part, there may be other material to form other parts of the bottom support.

[0136] The multiple light strips are mounted with LED modules. The LED modules may have different color temperatures and mixed to form a desired color temperature. In addition, the driver circuit may be configured to change luminous level of the LED modules, e.g. changing driving currents supplied to the LED modules.

[0137] In some embodiments, the LED modules have different types of LED modules with different color temperatures. The driver circuit may be configured to provide different driving current to different types of the LED modules so that when the LED are turned brighter, the mixed color temperature is more like a day light and when the LED are turned less brighter, the mixed color temperature is more like color temperature during sunset.

[0138] Each light strip has a top end and a bottom end. The bottom ends of the light strips are connected to the bottom support for being electrically connected to the driver circuit. In other words, the driver circuit provides driving current to the light strips via components of the bottom support, e.g. some metal bars or strips.

[0139] The top ends of the light strips form a top polygonal shape, and the bottom ends of the light strips form a bottom polygonal shape. The bottom polygonal shape has a bigger area size than the top polygonal shape. Since each light strip has a top end and a bottom end, the top polygonal shape may be geometrically similar, in some case, to the bottom polygonal shape. For example, the top polygonal shape and the bottom polygonal shape are both hexagonal shapes, just with different area sizes.

[0140] Each light strip has a skewed angle with respect to a middle axis perpendicular to the bottom polygonal shape. The middle axis is a virtual axis perpendicular to the bottom polygonal shape and extends from the middle of the bottom polygonal shape. The light strips surround the middle axis and are skewed with a skewed angle so that their projection are still not parallel to the middle axis.

[0141] The bulb shell is extended from the head cup covering the bottom support and the plurality of light strips.

[0142] In some embodiments, the bulb apparatus may further have a central support. The central support has a bottom part connected to the bottom support and having a top part connected to the top ends of the plurality of the light strips.

[0143] In some embodiments, the central support is a vertical bar that has its bottom part connected to the bottom support and its top part connecting to the top ends of the multiple light strips.

[0144] In some embodiments, the vertical bar has a metal top portion and an insulation middle portion. The insulation middle portion may be made of transparent plastic material or glass material to have a better appearance.

[0145] In some embodiments, the vertical bar has a metal part embedded in a glass portion of the bottom support. This may be implemented by placing the metal part in a molding device and then covered with fluid heated glass. After the glass is cooled, the metal part is sealed in the bottom support.

[0146] In some embodiments, the vertical bar is a tube. Such method reduces material usage and saves cost while keeping rigidity of the vertical bar.

[0147] In some embodiments, the vertical bar is an elongated folded metal sheet. In other words, an elongated sheet is folded to increase its rigidity.

[0148] In some embodiments, the vertical bar is metal material and has one more fins to help heat dissipation.

[0149] In some embodiments, the light bulb apparatus may further include a bracket for connecting the top ends of the light trips to the vertical bar.

[0150] The bracket may have multiple metal bars, or in other way, e.g. a circle shape with a bar connected to the vertical bar.

[0151] In some cases, the bracket has multiple metal bars and parts of the metal bars are welded to the vertical bar.

[0152] In some embodiments, the bracket may have multiple metal bars, parts of the metal bars are embedded to a glass portion of the vertical bar. Like what being explained above, when the vertical bar is made of glass material, parts of the bracket may be placed in a molding device and filled with fluid heated glass material. When the glass material is cooled down, the bracket is fixed to the vertical bar.

[0153] In some embodiments, the top end of the light strip has a metal portion extended from a substrate of the light strip. In such case, the light strip is made of a substrate mounted with LED modules that are further covered by fluorescent material. The substrate has a metal part and the metal part is extended to the top end of the light strip. In other words, the top end and the substrate of the light strip is one piece, which may be cut from a metal sheet.

[0154] The top ends of the light strips may be folded to keep the light strip with a distance from the vertical bar.

[0155] In some cases, two light strips are made together and form a pair. In such pair, the two light strips share the same metal material and thus their top ends are two portion of a one piece material. In such case, the connection between the two light strips has better electricity conductivity and may decrease unnecessary heat due to resistance of the connected portion between the two light strips.

[0156] Therefore, in a light bulb apparatus of such case, if there are six light strips, there are three pairs of light strips placed in the bulb apparatus, instead of fixing six independent light strips together, which may also decrease manufacturing time and difficulty.

[0157] In some embodiments, a connection part of the top ends of the two light strips surrounds the vertical bar. For example, the top ends of two light strips are welded together while leaving a hole in the middle of the connection. The vertical bar is placed in the middle of the connection, thus increasing robustness of overall light bulb structure.

[0158] In some embodiments, the top ends of the light strips are separately connected to a bracket and the bracket enables electrical connection between the two ends of the light strips. For example, the bracket may have multiple metal bars as mentioned above. The top ends of the light strips are separately welded to the metal bars. With the metal bar as an intermediate component, the light strips may be connected in desired connection manner, e.g. connected in series or in parallel.

[0159] Usually, the light strips have a major light emitting angle, e.g. 120 degrees. The central direction of the light emitting span is named as the major light direction.

[0160] In some embodiments, the major light directions of the light strips lean toward the bottom support. Specifically, the major light directions are directed to lower portion, instead of top portion, of the light bulb apparatus, i.e. more close to the bottom support instead of close to the top ends of the light strips.

[0161] To further enhance overall light pattern, the major light directions of the light strips also lean toward dark part of neighbor light strips. For example, the major direction of one light strip is directed to dark part, out of main light angle span area, of a neighbor light strip.

[0162] In some embodiments, there are more than one vertical bars for the central support. To increase the top polygonal shape of the light bulb apparatus, the top parts of these vertical bars are bent and connected to the top ends of the light strips.

[0163] FIG. 1 illustrates major components of a light bulb embodiment.

[0164] The above LED module may be embedded into a bulb with Edison bulb head to be mounted on standard Edison bulb socket. The LED module includes a bottom support 16, with conductive wires 12 inside to connect to power supply. Two or more LED strips 13 are mounted on a central support 14. Each LED bar 13 has a substrate plate extending two leads 131 as top end, 132 as bottom end which are connected to the central support 14 and the conductive wire 15, respectively. In this example, the LED strips 13 are connected in series, and the central support is not directly connecting to any power supply. The central support may be made of metal materials. Transparent materials may also be used under different design requirements.

[0165] A transparent or translucent bulb cover made of glass or other material may be used for enclosing the LED module. While a translucent, not 100% transparent cover, is used, the arrangement of the LED bars may form visible dark/light strips on its surface.

[0166] FIG. 2 illustrates how the light strips are skewed.

[0167] In this example, three pairs of LED strips 231, 232, 233, 234, 235, 236 are connected to a central support 24. Each LED bar 231, 232, 233, 234, 235, 236 is rotated with an angle so that they are not standing vertically with respect to the central support 24. In addition, each LED bar 231, 232, 233, 234, 235, 236 has its major illuminant angle facing downwardly and pointing to a neighbor LED bar so that the shadow or bright part projected onto a translucent bulb cover may be eliminated. The central support may be made of metal or glass or other materials.

[0168] In this example, the top ends 2311, 2321, 2331, 2341, 2351, 2361 of the light strips 231, 232, 233, 234, 235, 236 form a top polygonal shape, and the bottom ends 2312, 2322, 2332, 2342, 2352, 2362 form a bottom polygonal shape.

[0169] The top polygonal shape and the bottom polygonal shape are similar but has a shifted angled, or say a skewed angle between them.

[0170] FIG. 3A illustrates the relation between the top polygonal shape and the bottom polygonal shape in an embodiment.

[0171] FIG. 3B illustrates a perspective view of FIG. 3A.

[0172] In FIG. 3A, from a top view, it is illustrated that the top polygonal shape 31 is similar to the bottom polygonal shape 32, and there is a skewed angle between the top polygonal shape 31 and the bottom polygonal shape 32.

[0173] In FIG. 3B, from a perspective view, the middle points of the top polygonal shape 31 and the bottom polygonal shape 32 form a virtual middle axis 33. There are various ways to define the skew angle of each light strip. In this case, the skew angle of each light strip with respect to the middle axis may be referred to an equivalent measure, i.e. the angle 34.
