Abstract

A lighting device is provided with an LED light source including a light bulb color LED, a blue LED, and a green LED. The light bulb color LED has a peak wavelength in the range from 580 to 630 nm and a half width at the peak wavelength in the range from 120 nm to 175 nm. The light bulb color LED is specified by Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) Z9112. The blue LED has a peak wavelength in the range from 450 nm to 480 nm. The green LED has a peak wavelength in the range from 500 nm to 530 nm.

Claims (16)

1. A lighting device, comprising:

a light emitting diode module comprising:

a light bulb color light emitting diode including: a blue light emitting diode element and a light transmissive member that encloses the blue light emitting diode element,

the light transmissive member including a green-yellow fluorescent body and a red fluorescent body, and

the light bulb color light emitting diode having a peak wavelength in the range from 580 nm to 630 nm and a half width at the peak wavelength in the range from 120 nm to 175 nm, wherein the light bulb color light emitting diode is specified by Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) Z9112;

a blue light emitting diode having a peak wavelength in the range from 450 nm to 480 nm; and

a green light emitting diode having a peak wavelength in the range from 500 nm to 530 nm.

2. The lighting device according to claim 1 , wherein when the light bulb color light emitting diode has a light emission intensity expressed by 1 at the peak wavelength, each of the blue light emitting diode and the green light emitting diode is configured to have a light emission intensity of 1 or greater.

3. The lighting device according to claim 1 , wherein the blue light emitting diode has a peak wavelength in the range from 450 nm to 465 nm,
