Abstract

An illumination device includes a lamp housing component, a main bone disposed inside the lamp housing component, and at least one light emitting component. The light emitting component has a heat sink member and a light emitting member. The heat sink member is locked on the main bone, and the light emitting member is disposed on the lamp housing component and contacts the heat sink member. According to the demand for luminance, the number of light emitting components is optionally increased or decreased on the main bone, or the main bone inside the lamp housing component is replaced by an extended main bone, so as to increase the number of light emitting components.

Claims (27)

1. An illumination device, comprising:

a lamp housing component, further comprising:

a lamp base, having a plurality of first air-inlet holes; and

a lamp shade, having a plurality of first air-outlet holes;

a main bone, disposed on the lamp base of the lamp housing component; and

at least one light emitting component, further comprising:

a heat sink member, disposed inside the lamp housing component and connected to the main bone; and

a light emitting member, disposed on the lamp housing component and contacting the heat sink member;

wherein the first air-inlet holes are respectively corresponding to the light emitting components and respectively guide an air flow to blow the light emitting components correspondingly, and the air flow is discharged from the first air-outlet holes, such that all the light emitting components are subjected to a heat dissipation convection of the air flow.

2. The illumination device according to claim 1 , wherein the lamp shade and the main bone are respectively provided with a first shaft portion and a second shaft portion corresponding to each other, and an axial rod passes through the first shaft portion and the second shaft portion, such that the lamp shade and the lamp base are pivotally connected to each other and the lamp shade is pivotally movable with respect to the lamp base.

3. The illumination device according to claim 1 , wherein the lamp base further comprises:

a first side plate, disposed at one side edge of the lamp base and joining the lamp base to the lamp shade, wherein the first side plate has a plurality of second air-inlet holes; and

a second side plate, disposed at the other side edge of the lamp base and joining the lamp base to the lamp shade, wherein the second side plate has a plurality of second air-outlet holes, corresponding to the first side plate.

4. The illumination device according to claim 1 , wherein the lamp base further has at least one accommodation hole for disposing the light emitting components, and the accommodation holes are respectively adjacent to side edges of the first air-inlet holes.

5. The illumination device according to claim 1 , wherein the lamp shade further comprises a supporting rod, and the supporting rod is pivotally mounted on the lamp shade and pivotally moved between a receiving position where the supporting rod is flatly attached to the lamp shade and an upright position where the supporting rod erects the lamp shade on the lamp base.

6. The illumination device according to claim 1 , wherein the main bone further comprises:

a sleeve, disposed at one end of the main bone and provided for a lamp rod to be inserted therein; and

a rod, disposed at the other end of the main bone and joined to the sleeve, wherein the light emitting components are locked on the rod.

7. The illumination device according to claim 6 , wherein the sleeve further comprises at least one reinforcing member and two opposite ends of the reinforcing member are respectively locked on the rod and the lamp housing component.

8. The illumination device according to claim 1 , wherein the heat sink member further comprises:

a contact portion, for contacting the light emitting member; and

a heat sink portion, disposed on the contact portion in a form of a plurality of fins, wherein an air flow channel is formed among the fins.

9. The illumination device according to claim 1 , wherein the light emitting member further comprises:

a circuit board, being a low-thermal-resistance metal core printed circuit board (MC-PCB) and contacting the heat sink member;

at least one light emitting diode (LED), electrically connected to the circuit board; and

a secondary optical member, disposed on the circuit board and covering the LED.

10. The illumination device according to claim 1 , wherein corresponding light emitting components are respectively disposed at two opposite sides of the main bone.
