Light source device and light source unit comprising the same
View Patent ↗According to one embodiment, a light source device includes a light-emitting chip, and a case in which the light-emitting chip is accommodated. The case includes a light-emitting surface which transmits light from the light-emitting chip, and a plurality of sidewalls extending so as to intersect the light-emitting surface. At least a part of the sidewalls is colored or painted in black.
1. A light source device comprising:
a light-emitting chip; and
a case in which the light-emitting chip is accommodated with a reflector, phosphor or sealing resin, and wires connected to the light-emitting chip, wherein
the case comprises:
a light-emitting surface which transmits light from the light-emitting chip;
a bottom surface located on a side opposite to the light-emitting surface; and
a plurality of sidewalls in contact with the reflector and extending from the bottom surface to the light-emitting surface so as to meet the light-emitting surface, and the sidewalls and the bottom surface are colored or painted in black.
2. The light source device of claim 1 , wherein
the case includes a mounting surface on which a pair of electrodes is provided,
the sidewalls include a pair of long-sidewalls facing each other and a pair of short-sidewalls facing each other, and
an outer surface of at least one of the long-sidewalls and the short-side sidewalls is black.
3. The light source device of claim 2 , wherein
the pair of electrodes is provided on the bottom surface such that the bottom surface forms the mounting surface.
4. The light source device of claim 3 , wherein
the pair of long-sidewalls is colored or painted in black.
5. The light source device of claim 2 , wherein
one of the long-sidewalls forms the mounting surface on which the pair of electrodes is provided, and
the other long-sidewall and the pair of short-side sidewalls are colored or painted in black.
6. The light source device of claim 1 , wherein
two colors are applied to the case such that an internal side is formed of white resin, and an external side is formed of black resin.
7. The light source device of claim 1 , wherein
an outer surface of the case is painted in black.
8. A light source unit comprising:
a wiring board; and
a plurality of light source devices on the wiring board, wherein
each of the light source devices comprises a light-emitting chip, and a case in which the light-emitting chip is accommodated with a reflector, phosphor or sealing resin, and wires connected to the light-emitting chip,
the case comprises a light-emitting surface which transmits light from the light-emitting chip, a bottom surface located on a side opposite to the light-emitting surface and a plurality of sidewalls in contact with the reflector and extending from the bottom surface to the light-emitting surface so as to meet the light-emitting surface, and
the sidewalls and the bottom surface are colored or painted in black.
9. The light source unit of claim 8 , wherein
the case includes a mounting surface on which a pair of electrodes is provided, the mounting surface located on a side opposite to the light-emitting surface, and
the sidewalls include a pair of long-sidewalls facing each other, and a pair of short-sidewalls facing each other.
10. The light source unit of claim 9 , wherein
the pair of long-sidewalls is colored or painted in black.
11. A light source unit comprising:
a wiring board;
a plurality of light source devices on the wiring board, each of the light source devices comprising a light-emitting surface; and
a black resinous member formed on both the wiring board and the light source devices and covering a surrounding area of each of the light source devices excluding the light-emitting surface.
12. The light source unit of claim 11 , wherein
each of the light source devices comprises a light-emitting chip, and a case in which the light-emitting chip is accommodated with a reflector, phosphor or sealing resin, and wires connected to the light-emitting chip,
the case comprises:
the light-emitting surface which transmits light from the light-emitting chip;
a mounting surface on which a pair of electrodes is provided, the mounting surface located on a side opposite to the light-emitting surface and mounted on the wiring board; and
a plurality of sidewalls extending so as to intersect the light-emitting surface, and
the black resinous member is provided to cover the sidewalls of each of the light source devices.
