DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Referring to FIGS. 1-3, an LED illuminating device 1000 according to a first embodiment includes a mounting module 40, a plurality of lamp units 100 and an electrical module 30 mounted on the mounting module 40. The lamp units 100 are identical to each other, and are arranged parallel to each other.
Referring to FIGS. 4-6, the lamp unit 100 includes a light-emitting module 10 and a heat sink 20 arranged above the light-emitting module 10. The light-emitting module 10 is electrically connected with the electrical module 30.
The heat sink 20 includes an elongated metal base 22 and a plurality of metal fins 24 extending from the base 22. A transverse cross section of the base 22 is substantially of an isosceles trapezoid with an isosceles trapezoid-shaped recess 26 in a bottom side thereof along a longitudinal direction of the base 22, to thereby form an outer convex surface 223 at a top side thereof, and an opposite inner U-shaped concave surface 261 at a bottom side thereof. The convex surface 223 includes a horizontal first plane 2231 at a top thereof, and two sloping second planes 2232 located below and at two opposite lateral sides of the first plane 2231. The fins 24 extend vertically and upwardly from the convex surface 223 of the base 22, and are arranged symmetric to a longitudinal center line of the first plane 2231. A height of the fins 23 decreases from the longitudinal center line of the first plane 2231 towards two opposite lateral sides 224 of the base 22. Upper free ends of the fins 23 cooperatively form an imaginary semicircular, convex surface. In other words, the fins 23 at the longitudinal center line of the first plane 2231 of the base 22 have a maximum height. Thus, a heat dissipation at a center of the heat sink 20 is enhanced.
The concave surface 261 includes a horizontal first plane 262 at a top thereof, and two sloping second planes 264 located below and at two opposite lateral sides of the first plane 262. The two second planes 264 extend outwardly and downwardly from the two opposite lateral sides of the first plane 262, respectively. The first plane 262 and the two second planes 264 cooperatively define the elongated recess 26 of the base 22. A horizontal distance between the two second planes 264 increases from the first plane 262 along a downward direction.
The opposite two lateral sides 224 of the base 22 are spaced from each other and cooperatively define a light emitting window therebetween, which is below the concave surface 261. Each of the lateral sides 224 forms a bracket 226 and a mounting flange 228 on a corresponding sloping plane 2232 of the convex surface 223 thereof. The bracket 226 extends horizontally and outwardly from the convex surface 223. The mounting flange 228 is located above the bracket 226, and extends horizontally and outwardly from the convex surface 223. The mounting flange 228 and the bracket 226 cooperatively define a first engaging groove 2261 therebetween. A plurality of mounting apertures 229 are defined in the mounting flange 228 for mounting the lamp unit 100 to the mounting module 40. Further, each of the lateral sides 224 of the base 22 defines a second engaging groove 225 in a corresponding second plane 264 of the concave surface 261.
The light-emitting module 10 includes a light source 11 and a light penetrable cover 122. The light source 11 is received in the elongated recess 26 of the base 22 of the heat sink 20, and attached to the first plane 262 of the concave surface 261 of the base 22. The heat sink 20 and the light source 11 are assembled together to form a light engine for the lamp unit 100. The first plane 262 of the concave surface 261 of the base 22 functions as a heat-absorbing surface for the light source 11, and the convex surface 223 of the base 22 functions as a heat-spreading surface for the light source 11.
The light source 11 includes at least one light bar. The light bar includes an elongated substrate 111 forming electrical circuits thereon, and a plurality of LEDs 112 arranged on the substrate 111 and electrically connected to the electrical circuits. A pair of electrodes are provided at two opposite ends of the substrate 111. The LEDs 112 are evenly spaced from each other along the substrate 111, and are electrically connected to the electrodes. When the light source 11 is mounted to the first plane 262 of the base 22, a layer of thermal interface material (TIM) may be applied between the substrate 111 of the light source 11 and the first plane 262 of the base 22 to eliminate an air interstice therebetween, to thereby enhance a heat conduction efficiency between the light source 11 and the base 22. Alternatively, the substrate 111 of the light source 11 can be attached to the first plane 262 of the base 22 fixedly and intimately through surface mount technology (SMT). Electrical circuits formed on the substrate 111 can be directly formed on the first plane 262 of the base 22, and the LED 112 is directly attached to the electrical circuits of the first plane 262 of the base 22, whereby the substrate 111 can be omitted and a heat resistance between the LEDs 112 and the base 22 is reduced.
The light penetrable cover 122 is located in front of the light source 11 and mounted to the base 22 of the heat sink 20. The light penetrable cover 122 functions as an optical lens for the LEDs 112 of the light source 11. Light emitted by LEDs 112 of light source 11 is guided to environment by the light penetrable cover 122. The light penetrable cover 122 is substantially C-shaped. The light penetrable cover 122 is mounted to the heat sink 20 by inserting two opposite lateral sides of the light penetrable cover 122 into the first engaging grooves 2261 of the base 22. Alternatively, the light penetrable cover 112 can be mounted to the heat sink 20 by inserting two opposite lateral sides of the light penetrable cover 112 in the second engaging grooves 225 of the base 22. The light penetrable cover 122 and the concave surface 261 of the base 22 cooperatively define a chamber 12 with two opposite longitudinal ends thereof being open. Two end covers 124 are mounted to two opposite longitudinal ends of the heat sink 20 and cover the two open longitudinal ends of the chamber 12, respectively. Each end cover 124 defines a plurality of mounting holes 1242 therein for screws extending therethrough to mount the end cover 124 to the heat sink 20. Each end cover 124 further defines a wire hole 1244 therein for electrical wires of the light source 11 extending therethrough.
In operation of the lamp unit 100, a large amount of heat is generated by the LEDs 112 of the light source 11. As the light source 11 is attached to the heat sink 20, the heat generated by the LEDs 112 can be conducted not only to the fins 24 above the light source 11 for dissipating via a first portion of the base 22 which connected with the light source 11, but also to two lateral second portions of the base 22 which connected two opposite lateral sides of the first portion of the base 22 and to the fins 24 formed on the second portions of the base 22 via the first portion of the base 22. The heat of the LEDs 112 is removed timely and effectively by the heat sink 20. Thus, the LEDs 112 can be kept working at a lower temperature, and the brightness, lifespan, and reliability of the lamp unit 100 will be improved. At the same time, as the light source 11 is attached to the first plane 262 of the concave surface 261 of the base 22, the two second planes 264 beside the first plane 262 cooperatively function as a light reflector to amplify the light illumination of the lamp unit 100. Light emitted by the LEDs 112 is reflected and guided by the two second planes 264 to outside objects through the light penetrable cover 122, so that the lamp unit 100 can illuminate a desired large area.
In order to further improve the heat dissipating efficiency of the lamp unit 100, the base 22 of the heat sink 20 defines a plurality of air exchanging holes 222 through the first plane 2231 of the convex surface 223 and the first plane 262 of the concave surface 261. The light penetrable cover 122 defines a plurality of air venting holes 123 therein. The air exchanging holes 222 are located at two lateral sides of the first plane 262 and evenly spaced from each other along the base 22. The air venting holes 123 are located adjacent to two opposite lateral sides of the light penetrable cover 122 and evenly spaced from each other along the light penetrable cover 122. Air in the chamber 12 is heated by the heat of the LEDs 112, and then floats upwardly. The heated, upwardly floating air escapes to ambient atmosphere via the exchanging holes 222 defined in the base 22 of the heat sink 20. Cooling air in the ambient atmosphere enters into the chamber 12 via the air venting holes 123 defined in the light penetrable cover 122, whereby a natural air convection is circulated between the chamber 12 and the ambient atmosphere. The two second planes 264 of the base 22 continuously exchange heat with the air flowing through the chamber 12, which greatly improves the heat dissipating effectiveness of the heat sink 20.
Referring back to the FIGS. 1-3, the mounting module 40 includes a lampshade 42 and a light distributing member 46. The lampshade 42 includes a top mounting plate 422 and a sidewall 423 extending downwardly from a periphery of the mounting plate 422. The mounting plate 422 is substantially rectangular. The sidewall 423 expands slightly outwardly from the periphery of the mounting plate 422. The lampshade 42 defines a receiving space 424 therein for accommodating the light distributing member 46 and the light-emitting module 10 of each lamp unit 100 therein. The receiving space 424 is surrounded by the sidewall 423 and the mounting plate 422. A plurality of elongated openings 426 are defined in the mounting plate 422 for mounting the lamp units 100 on the mounting plate 422. The openings 426 are parallel to and spaced from each other, and communicate with the receiving space 424. A size of the opening 426 of the mounting plate 422 is slightly larger than the light penetrable cover 122 and smaller than the heat sink 20. The mounting plate 422 further defines a wire hole 428 therein for the electrical wires extending therethrough.
The light distributing member 46 is accommodated in the receiving space 424 of the lampshade 42. The light distributing member 46 includes a rectangular frame 460, a plurality of elongated reflecting plates 462 and a plurality of the elongated partition plates 466 mounted in the frame 460. The reflecting plates 462 are connected between two opposite sides of the frame 460 and spaced from each other, thereby defining an elongated cutout 464 between every two adjacent reflecting plates 462 corresponding to the elongated opening 426 of the lampshade 42. The partition plates 466 are connected between the other two opposite sides of the frame 460 and spaced from each other. The partition plates 466 are perpendicular to and interconnected with the reflecting plates 462. When the light distributing member 46 is mounted to the lampshade 42, the frame 460 of the light distributing member 46 is attached to an inner surface of the sidewall 423 of the lampshade 42.
The electrical module 30 is mounted on an inner surface of the mounting plate 422 of the lampshade 42. The electrical module 30 includes at least one protecting cover 32 and at least one circuit board 31 received in the protecting cover 32. The protecting cover 32 protects the circuit board 31 from an outer environment. The light source 11 of each lamp unit 100 is electrically connected with the circuit board 31 via the electrical wires. The electrical module 30 provides drive power, control circuit and power management for the light source 11 of each lamp unit 100.
When assembled, fixing devices, such as screws, extend through the mounting apertures 229 of the heat sink 20 and threadedly engage into the mounting plate 422, thereby to assemble the lamp units 100 in the corresponding openings 426 of the lampshade 42 to form the LED illuminating device 1000. The light-emitting module 10 of each lamp unit 100 is received at the corresponding opening 426 of the lampshade 42 and a corresponding cutout 464 of the light distributing member 46, with two reflecting plates 462 located at two opposite lateral sides of the light-emitting module 10. The lateral sides 224 of base 22 of the heat sink 20 is located in the corresponding opening 426 with the mounting flanges 228 of the heat sink 20 abutting against the mounting plate 422 beside the corresponding opening 426, and the fins 24 of the heat sink 20 are located above the mounting plate 422 of the lampshade 42.
During operation, the light sources 11 of the lamp units 100 are connected to the circuit board 31 of the electrical module 30 through the electrical wires, whereby the external power source can supply electric current to the LEDs 112 through the circuit board 31 to cause the LEDs 112 to emit light. The light of the LEDs 112 of each lamp unit 100 emitting through the light penetrable cover 122 is reflected by the reflecting plates 462 of the light distributing member 46 to outside for lighting.
