Abstract:
1. A high power optical element streetlamp using a thermocouple comprising: a body unit extended upward; a lamp head unit affixed at an upper side of the body unit; and a power supply unit fixed to the body unit and applying energy necessary to drive the lamp head unit to supply power to the lamp head unit, wherein the lamp head unit includes a circuit board electrically connected to the power supply unit, operating by power supplied from the power supply unit and formed of a thermal conductive material, at least one optical element installed on a lower surface of the circuit board, a heat dissipation plate installed on an upper surface of the circuit board and having a plurality of heat dissipation fins attached thereto to dissipate heat from the at least one optical element and the circuit board, and a thermocouple coupled to the heat dissipation fins to convert the dissipated heat into thermo-electromotive force, wherein the thermocouple includes a plurality of first metal bodies with a first thermal conductivity intersecting a plurality of second metal bodies with a second thermal conductivity.
