Lighting module
View Patent ↗Various embodiments may relate to a lighting module, including a first printed circuit board, on which at least one light source is arranged, a covering element, which at least partially covers the first printed circuit board, and at least one electronic component, which is integrated in the covering element and is electrically connected to the first printed circuit board.
1. A lighting module, comprising
a first printed circuit board, on which at least one light source is arranged,
a covering element, which at least partially covers the first printed circuit board, and
at least one electronic component, which is integrated in the covering element, is electrically connected to the first printed circuit board,
wherein the electronic component is arranged on a second printed circuit board, which is integrated in the covering element, wherein the electronic component is electrically connected to the first printed circuit board via the second printed circuit board.
2. The lighting module as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the light source is a light-emitting diode.
3. The lighting module as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the second printed circuit board is connected to the first printed circuit board via a clamping contact and/or a spring contact and/or a soldered connection.
4. The lighting module as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the second printed circuit board is in the form of an injection-molded circuit carrier or in the form of a leadframe.
5. The lighting module as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the electronic component is a capacitor.
6. The lighting module as claimed in claim 5 ,
wherein the electronic component in the form of the capacitor is formed from a ceramic material.
7. The lighting module as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the covering element is connected detachably to the first printed circuit board.
8. The lighting module as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the covering element is connected undetachably to the first printed circuit board.
9. The lighting module as claimed in claim 3 ,
wherein the second printed circuit board is in the form of an injection-molded circuit carrier or in the form of a leadframe.
10. A method for mounting a lighting module, the method comprising:
arranging at least one light source on a first printed circuit board,
arranging at least one electronic component onto a second printed circuit board,
integrating the second printed circuit board in a covering element, and
positioning the covering element together with the electronic component and the second printed circuit board integrated therein, on the first printed circuit board in such a way that the covering element at least partially covers the first printed circuit board, wherein, when the covering element is positioned on the first printed circuit board, the electronic component is electrically connected to the first printed circuit board via the second printed circuit board.
