Base, round tube housing and lamp including base and round tube housing

1. A base configured to carry a light emitting body and to be inserted into a round tube housing, the base comprising:

a rectangular portion configured to carry the light emitting body on a first surface of the rectangular portion; and

first and second fixing portions configured to extend from first and second long edges of the rectangular portion respectively in a space that a second surface of the rectangular portion faces, such that when the base is inserted into the round tube housing, at least a part of each of the first and second fixing portions presses against the inner wall of the round tube housing, and a first part close to the first long edge and a second part close to the second long edge in the first surface of the rectangular portion press against first and second protrusions on the inner wall of the round tube housing respectively.

2. The base as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the cross section of at least one of the first and second fixing portions taken along a plane parallel to a short edge of the rectangular portion is of arc shape, and the arc has a curvature less than that of the cross section of the round tube housing.

3. The base as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rectangular portion, the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion are formed integrally.

4. The base as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rectangular portion, the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion are made of metal.

5. The base as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the metal is copper or iron.

6. The base as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rectangular portion, the first fixing portion and the second fixing portion are made of plastic.

7. The base as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the plastic is polycarbonate or polymethyl methacrylate.

8. A round tube housing configured to have a base, the base comprising:

a rectangular portion configured to carry a light emitting body on a first surface of the rectangular portion; and

first and second fixing portions configured to extend from first and second long edges of the rectangular portion respectively in a space that a second surface of the rectangular portion faces, such that when the base is inserted into the round tube housing, at least a part of each of the first and second fixing portions presses against an inner wall of the round tube housing, and a first part close to the first long edge and a second part close to the second long edge in the first surface of the rectangular portion press against first and second protrusions on the inner wall of the round tube housing respectively,

the round tube housing, comprising:

first and second protrusions extending toward each other on the inner wall of the round tube housing along the axial surface of the round tube housing or along a plane parallel to the axial surface; and

when the base is inserted into the round tube housing, the inner wall of the round tube housing presses against at least a part of each of the first and second fixing portions of the base, and the first and second protrusions press against a first part close to the first long edge and a second part close to the second long edge in a first surface of the rectangular portion of the base respectively.

9. A lamp comprising;

a base

the base comprising:

a rectangular portion configured to carry a light emitting body on a first surface of the rectangular portion; and

first and second fixing portions configured to extend from first and second long edges of the rectangular portion respectively in a space that a second surface of the rectangular portion faces, such that when the base is inserted into the round tube housing, at least a part of each of the first and second fixing portions presses against an inner wall of the round tube housing, and a first part close to the first long edge and a second part close to the second long edge in the first surface of the rectangular portion press against first and second protrusions on the inner wall of the round tube housing respectively;

a round tube housing

the round tube housing comprising:

the base,

first and second protrusions extending toward each other on the inner wall of the round tube housing along the axial surface of the round tube housing or along a plane parallel to the axial surface; and

when the base is inserted into the round tube housing, the inner wall of the round tube housing presses against at least a part of each of the first and second fixing portions of the base, and the first and second protrusions press against a first part close to the first long edge and a second part close to the second long edge in a first surface of the rectangular portion of the base respectively;

the light emitting body arranged on the first surface of the rectangular portion of the base;

a drive part for driving the light emitting body;

a first end cap arranged at a first axial end of the round tube housing; and

a second end cap arranged at a second axial end of the round tube housing.

10. The lamp as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the light emitting body is a printed circuit board on which light emitting diodes are mounted.
