Lighting module
View Patent ↗A lighting module may include a lighting band with a band-shaped flexible substrate, wherein at least one semiconductor light source is applied to a top side of the substrate, wherein the lighting module is faced with a protective layer such that at least one emission area of the at least one semiconductor light source is exposed thereby.
1. A lighting module, comprising:
a lighting band with a band-shaped flexible substrate,
wherein at least one semiconductor light source is applied to a top side of the substrate,
wherein the lighting module is faced with a protective layer such that at least one emission area of the at least one semiconductor light source is exposed thereby,
further comprising: an underlay for fixing a rear side of the lighting band,
wherein the underlay is around the lighting band.
2. The lighting module as claimed in claim 1 , which is coated with the protective layer in the form of a varnish.
3. The lighting module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the protective layer is black, white or transparent.
4. The lighting module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the protective layer has a thermal coefficient of expansion in the order of magnitude of a thermal coefficient of expansion of a basic material of the substrate.
5. The lighting module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the underlay at least partially protrudes laterally beyond the lighting band, wherein the underlay is faced with the protective layer at least at a transitional area to the lighting band.
6. The lighting module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein on the top side the beaded-over underlay is at least partially covered by the protective layer, the beaded-over underlay is at least partially not covered by at least one of the protective layer and the beaded-over underlay at least partially covers the protective layer.
7. The lighting module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the underlay has a highly heat-conductive material.
8. The lighting module as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the highly heat-conductive material comprises aluminum or an aluminum/plastic-composite material.
9. The lighting band as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the underlay is not thicker than 150 μm.
10. The lighting module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lighting band is a light emitting diode band.
11. The lighting module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one semiconductor light source comprises a light emitting diode.
