LED lamp

摘要

An LED lamp includes an elongated at least partially optically transmissive enclosure having a first end and a second end. LEDs are located in the enclosure and are operable to emit light through the enclosure when energized through an electrical path. A first pair of pins are mounted to the first end of the enclosure and a second pair of pins are mounted to the second end of the enclosure, the pins being in the electrical path. The LEDs are mounted on an LED board. A support structure for supporting the LED board is formed as one-piece with the enclosure and is formed of an optical material.

主权项

1. A lamp comprising:
an elongated at least partially optically transmissive enclosure having a first end and a second end; at least one LED mounted on an LED board in the enclosure and operable to emit light through the enclosure when energized through an electrical path, a front of the enclosure being disposed to a first side of the LED board on which the at least LED is mounted and a back of the enclosure being disposed to a second side of the LED board; the enclosure comprising a support structure for supporting the LED board, the support structure being formed as one-piece with the enclosure and being formed of an optical material, the support structure being arranged in the enclosure such that the LED board is positioned closer to the back of the enclosure than to the front of the enclosure; a first end cap secured to the first end supporting an electrically conductive pin where the pin is in the electrical path, a ramp positioned under the LED board; an electrical conductor electrically coupled to the pin, the electrical conductor being resilient and being configured such that the engagement of the electrical conductor with the LED board biases the electrical conductor into engagement with an electrical contact on the LED board to complete the electrical connection between the pin and the LED board, the ramp supporting the LED board against the electrical conductor.
