Abstract

An LED package frame includes an LED chip and a heat conductive member made of high heat conductivity material. The heat conductive member has a receiving part at a lateral portion, and is mounted with the LED chip. A lead-coating assembly configured to be inserted into the receiving part of the heat conductive member, including a lead is inserted at one end into the receiving part of the heat conductive member, and electrically connected to the LED chip. An electrically insulating layer is placed in tight contact between the lead and the receiving part of the heat conductive member isolates the lead from the receiving part. With the lead inserted into the heat conductive member, it is possible to reduce size while maintaining high heat conductivity and stability.

Claims (26)

1. A Light Emitting Diode (LED) package comprising:

an LED chip;

a heat conductive member made of high heat conductivity material, wherein the heat conductive member comprising a central column, a plate member extending around the central column and integral with the central column, a circumference of the plate has a cutout to define a receiving part, an upper flat surface of the plate member has an opening the opens downwardly into the receiving part;

a lead extending through the receiving part and exposed in the opening;

an insulating layer placed in contact between the lead and the head conductive member;

a wire extending through the opening to connect the LED chip and the exposed lead; and

a package body made of resin to seal the heat conductive member and a part of the lead to an extent that at least a part of the heat conductive member opposite to the LED chip is exposed and the other end of the lead is projected out of the package body.

2. A Light Emitting Diode (LED) package comprising:

an LED chip;

a heat conductive member made of high heat conductivity material, wherein the heat conductive member comprising a central column, a plate member extending around the central column and integral with the central column, a circumference of the plate has a cutout to define a receiving part, an upper flat surface of the plate member has an opening the opens downwardly into the receiving part;

a lead extending through the receiving part and exposed in the opening;

an insulating layer placed in contact between the lead and the head conductive member;

a wire extending through the opening to connect the LED chip and the exposed lead; and

an outside wall injection-molded sealing the periphery of the heat conductive member and partially the lead in a portion adjacent to the heat conductive member while forming a cavity therein.

3. The LED package according to claim 2 , further comprising a transparent resin filled in the cavity.

4. The LED package according to claim 3 , further comprising a layer of high reflectivity material formed on an inside surface of the outside wall.

5. A Light Emitting Diode (LED) package comprising:

an LED chip;

a heat conductive member made of a lump of high heat conductivity material, wherein the heat conductive member has a receiving part at a lateral portion, and the LED chip is mounted on the heat conductive member;

a first lead inserted at one end into the receiving part of the heat conductive member, and electrically connected to the LED chip;

a second lead extending through the receiving part and exposed in the opening;

an insulating layer placed in contact between the second lead and the heat conductive member;

a wire extending through the opening to connect the LED chip and the exposed lead; and

an outside wall injection-molded sealing the periphery of the heat conductive member and partially the lead in a portion adjacent to the heat conductive member while forming a cavity therein.
