Abstract:
1. A light-emitting diode carrier having a plurality of light-emitting diodes, wherein the light-emitting diode carrier comprises a circuit board that has a substantially planar front face at a front side, a substantially planar rear face, opposite from the front face, at a rear side and a plurality of openings, extending from the rear face to the front face, the plurality of light-emitting diodes being arranged on the rear side of the light-emitting diode carrier so that at least a portion of the light-emitting diodes extends into the openings and the light emitting diodes radiate toward the front side of the light-emitting diode carrier, and wherein the light-emitting diodes are electrically connected on the rear side of the light-emitting diode carrier and do not extend beyond the front side of the carrier.
