Abstract

A surface mounting device-type light emitting diode (SMD-type LED) comprises a package housing one or more pairs of electrodes therein, the package having a predetermined space in the center thereof and a light-emission window which is opened so that light is emitted through the light-emission window; a lens formed on the package so as to cover the light-emission window; an LED chip formed on an electrode inside the package; a wire for electrically connecting the LED chip and the electrode; and a phosphor-mixed layer formed on the surface of the lens adjacent to the light-emission window.

Claims (28)

1. A surface mounting device-type light emitting diode (SMD-type LED) comprising:

a package housing one or more pairs of electrodes therein, the package having a predetermined space in the center thereof and a light-emission window which is opened so that light is emitted through the light-emission window;

a lens formed on the package so as to cover the light-emission window;

an LED chip formed on an electrode inside the package;

a wire for electrically connecting the LED chip and the electrode; and

a phosphor-mixed layer formed on the surface of the lens adjacent to the light-emission window;

wherein the surface of the lens having the phosphor-mixed layer formed thereon is formed with a groove concave toward the lens with respect to the surface of the light-emission window; and

wherein the concave groove is formed with an inclined surface which is tapered toward the central portion from both ends of the groove.

2. The SMD-type LED according to claim 1 ,

wherein the reverse surface of the lens having the phosphor-mixed layer formed thereon is a hemispheric surface convex toward the outside.

3. The SMD-type LED according to claim 1 further comprising

air filled in the package so as to protect the LED chip and the wire.

4. The SMD-type LED according to claim 1 further comprising

liquid resin filled in the package so as to protect the LED chip and the wire.

5. The SMD-type LED according to claim 1 ,

wherein the package is formed of molding resin such that a portion of a lead frame composed of one or more pairs of lead electrodes is housed therein.

6. The SMD-type LED according to claim 5 ,

wherein the molding resin is transparent or opaque synthetic resin.

7. The SMD-type LED according to claim 1 ,

wherein the package is composed of a printed circuit board on which one or more pairs of electrodes are printed.

8. A surface mounting device-type light emitting diode (SMD-type LED) comprising:

a package housing one or more pairs of electrodes therein, the package having a predetermined space in the center thereof and a light-emission window which is opened so that light is emitted through the light-emission window;

a lens formed on the package so as to cover the light-emission window;

an LED chip formed on an electrode inside the package;

a wire for electrically connecting the LED chip and the electrode; and

a phosphor-mixed layer formed on the surface of the lens adjacent to the light-emission window;

wherein the surface of the lens having the phosphor-mixed layer formed thereon is formed with a groove concave toward the lens with respect to the surface of the light-emission window; and

wherein the concave groove is formed with an irregular surface.
