Patent ID: 6886963

Claim:
An LED light strip comprising: a printed circuit board having a front surface; a plurality of anode contacts disposed on the front surface; a plurality of cathode contacts, each of the plurality of cathode contacts being positioned near one of the plurality of anode contacts; a plurality of locking members, each of the plurality of locking members having a base and a first end, the base of each of the plurality of locking members being fastened to the printed circuit board and electronically connected to one of the plurality of cathode contacts such that said first end is positioned over one of the plurality of anode contacts, the plurality of locking members being electrically conductive; and a plurality of LED light bulbs, each of the plurality of LED light bulbs having a bulb base that supports at least one LED, the bulb base having an electrical contact, an outer sidewall, an insulator between the electrical contact and the outer sidewall, and a flange extending outwardly from the outer sidewall, said flange and locking members enabling said plurality of LED light bulbs to be removably connected to said printed circuit board; and the flange further being adapted to fit under said first end of one of the plurality of locking members thereby holding the electrical contact against one of the plurality of anode contacts.
