Abstract

A light bulb shaped lamp according to the present invention includes: a hollow globe; an LED module including a base platform and an LED chip mounted on the base platform, the LED module being provided in the globe; a lead wire for supplying power to the LED module; and a stem extending toward the interior of the globe, in which the base platform is directly fixed to the stem.

Claims (70)

1. A light bulb shaped lamp comprising:

a hollow globe;

a light-emitting module including a base platform and a light-emitting device mounted on the base platform, the light-emitting module being provided in the globe;

a lead wire for supplying power to the light-emitting module; and

an elongated stem extending toward the interior of the globe along an elongation direction,

the light-emitting module includes a plurality of base platforms and a fixing component for attaching the base platforms to the stem, a major dimension of the fixing component and of the base platforms extending substantially perpendicular to the elongation direction of the elongated stem and

the fixing component is directly fixed to the stem.

2. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 1 ,

wherein a first through hole is provided in the fixing component, and

an end portion of the stem extends into the first through hole.

3. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 2 ,

wherein a stepped part is provided at the end portion of the stem, and

the fixing component is supported by the stepped part provided at the end portion of the stem.

4. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 2 ,

wherein the end portion of the stem is fit into the first through hole.

5. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 2 ,

wherein the base platforms are fixed to the fixing component such that a barycenter of the fixing component and the base platforms coincides with a center position of the first through hole when viewed in the elongation direction of the stem.

6. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 1 ,

wherein the fixing component is fixed to an end portion of the stem by an adhesive material.

7. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 1 ,

wherein a third through hole is provided in the base platform, and

the lead wire extends into the third through hole and supports the base platform.

8. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 7 ,

wherein a fourth through hole is provided in the base platform,

a second through hole is provided in the fixing component so as to communicate with the fourth through hole, and

the lead wire extends into the second through hole and the fourth through hole.

9. A light bulb shaped lamp comprising:

a hollow globe;

a light-emitting module including a base platform and a light-emitting device mounted on the base platform, the light-emitting module being provided in the globe;

a lead wire for supplying power to the light-emitting module; and

a stem extending toward the interior of the globe,

the light-emitting module includes a plurality of base platforms and a fixing component for attaching the base platforms to the stem, and

the fixing component is directly fixed to the stem

a third through hole is provided in the base platform,

the lead wire extends into the third through hole and supports the base platform,

a fourth through hole is provided in the base platform,

a second through hole is provided in the fixing component so as to communicate with the fourth through hole,

the lead wire extends into the second through hole and the fourth through hole,

a conductive rivet is provided at an end of the lead wire, and

the base platform is fixed to the fixing component by the rivet inserted into the second through hole and the fourth through hole.

10. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 1 ,

wherein a line pattern is provided on the fixing component, and

the light-emitting devices each mounted on one of the base platforms are electrically connected through the line pattern.

11. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 1 ,

wherein the stem is joined with the globe so as to close an opening of the globe, and

a part of the lead wire is sealed in the stem.

12. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 1 ,

wherein the fixing component is transparent to visible light.

13. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 1 ,

wherein the base platform is translucent.

14. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 1 ,

wherein the stem is transparent to visible light.

15. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 1 ,

wherein the stem comprises a material having a thermal conductivity higher than a thermal conductivity of the base platform.

16. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 1 ,

wherein the globe comprises glass transparent to visible light.

17. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a base which receives power for causing the light-emitting device to emit light; and

an insulating case which insulates at least the stem and the base, and houses a lighting circuit for causing the light-emitting device to emit light.

18. A lighting apparatus comprising

the light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 1 .

19. A light bulb shaped lamp comprising:

a hollow globe;

a light-emitting module including a plurality of base platforms and a light-emitting device mounted on each of the base platforms, the light-emitting module being provided in the globe;

a lead wire for supplying power to the light-emitting module; and

an elongated stem extending toward the interior of the globe,

a fixing component for attaching the base platforms to the stem, and

the fixing component and the base platforms extending in planes transverse to an elongation direction of the stem and the plurality of base platforms extending symmetrically about the fixing component, the fixing component being directly fixed to the stem.

20. The light bulb shaped lamp according to claim 19 ,

the lead wire connected to a free end of the light emitting module.
