Patent ID: 7241637

Claim:
A method of producing light-conducting LED bodies of a material that is free-flowing before the final solidification comprising the steps of: providing a mold having a floor region and a charging point, one or more individual LED bodies each having at least one-light emitting chip and at least two electrodes connected electrically with said chip; injecting free-flowing material between said floor region of said mold and said chip at least approximately parallel to said chip plane and at least approximately normal to a plane formed by said two electrodes; choking by at least a cross-sectional constriction said free-flowing material above said charging and below said chip plane on the mold side of said charging point when a first distance measured by volumetric flow between said electrode plane and said charging point is greater than 35% of a second distance measured by the volumetric flow between said charging point and said mold side of said mold situation opposite said charging point; and choking on said mold side opposite said charging point when said first distance is smaller than or equal to said second distance.
