LED lighting bar
View Patent ↗The LED lighting bar includes a first conductive wire ( 10 ), a second conductive wire ( 20 ) parallel to the first conductive wire ( 10 ), an insulator ( 30 ), at least one LED ( 40 ) and a fixing frame ( 50, 50′ ). The insulator ( 30 ) has an upper layer ( 31, 31′ ) and a lower layer ( 32, 32′ ), which cover the first conductive wire ( 10 ) and the second conductive wire ( 20 ), wherein the upper layer ( 31, 31′ ) is provided with a penetrating trough ( 310, 310′ ) for exposing a first connecting section ( 11 ) of the first conductive wire ( 10 ) and a second connecting section ( 21 ) of the second conductive wire ( 20 ). The at least one LED ( 40 ) electrically connects on a first electrode ( 41 ) of the first connecting section ( 11 ) and a second electrode ( 42 ) of the second connecting section ( 21 ). The fixing frame ( 50, 50′ ) is around the at least one LED ( 40 ) for fastening.
