Patent ID: 8648374

Claim:
A light emitting diode device, comprising: a cathode lead frame; an anode lead frame which is electrically insulated from the cathode lead frame; a light emitting diode chip which is electrically connected to the cathode lead frame and the anode lead frame respectively; a synthetic resin member which forms an indentation receiving the light emitting diode chip and fixes the cathode lead frame and the anode lead frame; and a metallic heat-radiation/light-reflection member which covers at least a portion of the indentation and covers an upper surface of the synthetic resin member, the metallic heat-radiation/light-reflection member being formed as a separate member from both the cathode lead frame and the anode lead frame, and being spaced from the cathode lead frame and the anode lead frame within said indentation, the metallic heat-radiation/light-reflection member including a light-reflection portion which covers at least a portion of an inner surface of the indentation so as to form a reflection space where light emitted from the light emitting diode chip is reflected, and a heat radiation portion which is extended from the light-reflection portion to cover the upper surface of the synthetic resin member, the heat radiation portion extending from the upper surface of the synthetic resin member and along a side of the synthetic resin member to a bottom of the synthetic resin member, the heat radiation portion being formed to contact one of the cathode lead frame and the anode lead frame.
