LIGHTING FIXTURE, BODY OF THE SAME, AND LED ELEMENT

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an energy-saving lighting fixture with LED elements.

SOLUTION: The lighting fixture comprises the arbitrary number of LED elements and an LED element holder as a fixture body to which the LED elements are detachably inserted and electricity is conducted. The LED element has a leg as a terminal for supplying electricity to an LED chip and its anode and cathode, and the leg has a first and a second terminals insulated from each other and connected to an anode and a cathode, respectively, to conduct electricity along the direction of axis. The LED element holder has a first and a second supplying terminals for receiving electricity from the outside and a holding unit which holds the arbitrary number of LED elements. The holding unit has a first and a second power transmission films insulated from each other and connected to the first and the second terminals of the LED element holder, respectively, and has holes of smaller diameter than the legs of the LED elements for inserting the elements. The legs of the LED elements inserted in these holes are electrically connected to the unit through the first and second terminals on the legs.
