Abstract

A light emitting diode lamp may include a socket; a first circuit board; and at least one plug connector electrically connected to the socket; wherein the connector is connected to the circuit board by means of a plug section.

Claims (23)

1. A light emitting diode lamp, comprising:

a socket;

a first circuit board

at least one plug connector electrically connected to the socket; and

a metal-core circuit board on which a plurality of light emitting diodes are secured, wherein the metal-core circuit board is connected to the first circuit board by means of two further press-fit connectors,

wherein the connector is connected to the circuit board by means of a plug section; and

wherein the plug section is accommodated in a recess of the circuit board and wherein a through-recess is arranged in the plug section,

wherein the plug connector is a press-fit connector or an insulation displacement contact.

2. The light emitting diode lamp as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a second end section of the at least one press-fit connector is welded or soldered or clamped onto an inner side of the socket for the electrical and mechanical connection.

3. The light emitting diode lamp according to claim 1 , wherein its shape approximately corresponds to that of a conventional incandescent bulb.

4. The light emitting diode lamp as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the first circuit board is approximately circular.

5. The light emitting diode lamp as claimed in claim 3 , further comprising:

two press-fit connectors, wherein the second end section of the first press-fit connector is secured to a lower section of the socket and the second end section of the second press-fit connector is secured to a lateral peripheral section of the socket.

6. The light emitting diode lamp as claimed in claim 2 , wherein an electrically insulating casting compound is accommodated in the socket.

7. The light emitting diode lamp as claimed in claim 6 , wherein an electrical component is accommodated in the casting compound.

8. The light emitting diode lamp as claimed in claim 4 , wherein an electrical component is accommodated in the casting compound; wherein the electrical component is an electrolytic capacitor or a resistor that is connected electrically and mechanically to the two press-fit connectors.

9. The light emitting diode lamp as claimed in claim 6 , further comprising:

a guide bolt formed from the casting compound.

10. The light emitting diode lamp according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a heat sink made of metal or heat-conducting plastic, in which a driver board is accommodated.

11. The light emitting diode lamp as claimed in claim 3 , further comprising:

a heat sink made of metal or heat-conducting plastic, in which a driver board is accommodated;

wherein the heat sink is approximately rotationally symmetrical and wherein a peripheral edge of a plastic bulb is secured, for example, to a first edge and wherein a peripheral edge of the socket is secured to a second edge.
