Abstract:
An omni-directional LED lamp that reflects light in a 360.degree. circumferential direction without rotation, the lamp comprising:a first LED backed by a first directional reflector to transmit light substantially directionally in a first light beam in a first direction;a second LED backed by a second directional reflector, both located within the first light beam, to transmit light substantially directionally in a second light beam in a second direction;wherein the first LED and first directional reflector are within the second light beam;a first omni-directional reflector, having a continuous conical reflective surface with an apex pointed towards the first LED that is substantially upon its conical axis, intersecting the first light beam upon its exterior surface and reflecting this first light beam substantially in a 360.degree. circumference thus rendering the first LED omni-directional; anda second omni-directional reflector, having a continuous conical reflective surface with an apex pointed towards the second LED that is substantially upon its conical axis, intersecting the second light beam upon its exterior surface and reflecting this second light beam substantially in a 360.degree. circumference thus rendering the second LED omni-directional; anda housing for holding in arrayed order substantially along an axis the first omni-directional reflector, the directional second reflector and the second LED, the directional first reflector and the first LED, and the second omni-directional reflector.
