Abstract

An LED tube lamp comprises a plurality of LED light sources, two end caps, a lamp tube, and an LED light strip. The lamp tube extends in a first direction along a length of the lamp tube, and has two ends respectively sleeved to the end caps. The LED light strip is disposed inside the lamp tube, and the LED light sources are on the LED light strip. Each end cap comprises an electrically insulating tube and a magnetic metal member. The magnetic metal member is fixedly on an inner circumferential surface of the electrically insulating tube and interposed between the electrically insulating tube and the end of the lamp tube. The LED tube lamp further comprises a hot melt adhesive on the inner surface of the magnetic metal member and adhered to the outer peripheral surface of the end of the lamp tube.

Claims (44)
