Abstract

A lens can includes a disc-shaped diffusion part in which a top surface central part thereof is lower than a top surface edge part, and a concave accommodation part that is formed on a center of a bottom surface of the diffusion part and provides a space in which a light source is accommodated therein, wherein a plane of incidence to which a light of the light source is incident is formed on an interface between the concave accommodation part and the diffusion part, wherein the plane of incidence includes a plate-shaped surface in which a height of an edge part is lower than a central part thereof; and a vertical side surface extending from an edge of the plate-shaped surface to a bottom surface of the diffusion part.

Claims (21)

1. A lens comprising: a disc-shaped diffusion part in which a top surface central part thereof is lower than a top surface edge part, and

a concave accommodation part that is formed on a center of a bottom surface of the diffusion part and provides a space in which a light source is accommodated therein,

wherein a plane of incidence to which a light of the light source is incident is formed on an interface between the concave accommodation part and the diffusion part,

wherein the plane of incidence comprises a plate-shaped surface in which a height of an edge part is lower than a central part thereof; and a vertical side surface extending from an edge of the plate-shaped surface to a bottom surface of the diffusion part,

wherein the vertical side surface has a minimum height and a maximum height depending on a position,

wherein a curved surface is between the minimum height and the maximum height.

2. The lens of claim 1 , wherein the minimum height is a lowest height from the bottom surface of the diffusion part to a point on an upper end of the vertical side surface, and a pair of points of the minimum height are located at a position symmetrical around the central part,

wherein the maximum height is a highest height from the bottom surface of the diffusion part to a point on an upper end of the vertical side surface, and a pair of points of the maximum height are located at a position symmetrical around the central part.

3. The lens of claim 1 , wherein the plate-shaped surface has a non-square polygonal structure in which vertices are rounded,

wherein a lower end of the vertical side surface has a non-square polygonal structure in which vertices are rounded.

4. A lens comprising: a disc-shaped diffusion part in which a top surface central part thereof is lower than a top surface edge part, and

a concave accommodation part that is formed on a center of a bottom surface of the diffusion part and provides a space in which a light source is accommodated therein,

wherein a bottom surface of the concave accommodation part has a non-square polygonal structure in which vertices are rounded,

wherein a plane of incidence to which a light of the light source is incident is formed on an interface between the concave accommodation part and the diffusion part,

wherein the plane of incidence comprises a plate-shaped surface in which a height of an edge part is lower than a central part thereof; and a vertical side surface extending from an edge of the plate-shaped surface to a bottom surface of the diffusion part,

wherein the vertical side surface has a minimum height and a maximum height depending on a position,

wherein a curved surface is between the minimum height and the maximum height.

5. The lens of claim 4 , wherein the minimum height is a lowest height from the bottom surface of the diffusion part to a point on an upper end of the vertical side surface, and a pair of points of the minimum height are located at a position symmetrical around the central part,

wherein the maximum height is a highest height from the bottom surface of the diffusion part to a point on an upper end of the vertical side surface, and a pair of points of the maximum height are located at a position symmetrical around the central part.

6. The lens of claim 5 , wherein a pair of points of the maximum height and a pair of points of the minimum height are positioned 90 degrees rotated each other on a plane with respect to the central part.

7. The lens of claim 4 , wherein the top surface of the diffusion part is a curved surface in which a top surface central part is lower than a top surface edge part.
