Illumination device and method for assembly of an illumination device

摘要

The present invention discloses an illumination device (100) and a method (4000) for assembly of such an illumination device. The illumination device (100) comprises a light source (110) arranged to generate light, a carrier (120) arranged to support the light source and an envelope (130) enclosing the light source and the carrier. The envelope comprises at least two enveloping parts which, when joined together, form the envelope. Further, the carrier is arranged in thermal contact with at least one of the enveloping parts for dissipating heat out of the illumination device. The method comprises the steps of mounting (4100) the light source in thermal contact with the carrier and enclosing (4200) the light source and the carrier with the envelope. The present invention is advantageous in that it provides a convenient design which facilitates the assembly of the illumination device. Further, the present invention is advantageous in that it provides an illumination device with improved heat transfer.
