Abstract:
1. A light-emitting device comprising: a substrate; a plurality of insulation-coated electric wires fixed to the substrate, each of the electric wires having a plurality of exposed portions at which a core wire of the electric wire is exposed from the insulation; and a plurality of light-emitting diodes mounted to respective exposed portions of the electric wires, wherein each of the plurality of light-emitting diodes is an LED chip, wherein the light-emitting diodes on the substrate are sealed individually or collectively by one or more sealing members, wherein an insulating layer is disposed on a surface of the substrate, wherein at least one of the electric wires (i) extends along a front surface side of the substrate in a first direction, (ii) bends so as to project toward a front surface side of the insulating layer, and (iii) bends so as to extend along a front surface side of the insulating layer in a second direction that opposes the first direction, and wherein the exposed portion of said at least one electric wire, to which a respective one of the light emitting diodes is mounted, is located in a portion of said electric wire that extends in the second direction.
