Reflection type light-emitting diode device

摘要

A reflection type light-emitting diode device of a kind capable of emitting rays of light to the outside after having been reflected by a reflecting surface includes a recessed casing ( 22 ) having a cavity defining the reflecting surface ( 15 ) and also having a pair of bearing grooves ( 17 a and 17 b) defined in a peripheral wall thereof, a light-emitting element ( 11 ), and first and second lead members each made up of a small width lead segment ( 12 a or 12 b) having a relatively small width and a large width lead segment ( 18 a or 18 b) having a relatively large width, with the light-emitting element ( 11 ) mounted on the small width lead segment ( 12 a) of the first lead members. The first and second lead members are fitted to the recessed casing ( 22 ) with the small width lead segments ( 12 a and 12 b) thereof received immovably within respective bearing grooves ( 17 a and 17 b) in the recessed casing.
