Description

本発明は、LED(発光ダイオード)を光源として用いた電球型ランプである、所謂、LED電球に関し、特に、その光源であるLEDの発熱を低減するに適した冷却構造に関する。   The present invention relates to a so-called LED bulb, which is a bulb-type lamp using an LED (light-emitting diode) as a light source, and more particularly to a cooling structure suitable for reducing heat generation of an LED as a light source.

近年、家電製品における省エネルギー(以下、単に「省エネ」と言う)の流れが著しく、そのなかで、家庭用の電球に関しても、従来の白熱アンプに代えて、より消費電力の小さな光源を用いた電球型ランプの普及が著しい。   In recent years, there has been a significant flow of energy saving (hereinafter simply referred to as “energy saving”) in home appliances, and in light of this, the use of light sources that consume less power instead of conventional incandescent amplifiers is also used for household light bulbs. The spread of type lamps is remarkable.

より具体的には、従来の白熱アンプに代えて、蛍光ランプを光源とし、その外観を従来の白熱アンプと同様にした電球型ランプが、更に、特に、近年では、以下の特許文献2〜5により知られるように、従来の白熱アンプに代えて、LED(発光ダイオード)を光源として用いた電球型ランプが開発されており、そして、広く実用化されてきている。   More specifically, instead of the conventional incandescent amplifier, a light bulb type lamp that uses a fluorescent lamp as a light source and has the same appearance as a conventional incandescent amplifier, more particularly, in recent years, Patent Documents 2 to 5 listed below. As known from the above, instead of the conventional incandescent amplifier, a light bulb type lamp using an LED (light emitting diode) as a light source has been developed and has been widely put into practical use.

加えて、本願の発明者によれば、従来の白熱アンプに代え、LEDではなく、蛍光ランプを光源とするものにおいて、その発熱を効果的に外部に逃すため、その一部を口金部に逃がすための熱伝導路を設けるものも、既に、以下の特許文献5に開示されている。   In addition, according to the inventors of the present application, in place of the conventional incandescent amplifier, instead of the LED, the fluorescent lamp is used as a light source. A device for providing a heat conduction path is already disclosed in Patent Document 5 below.

特開2005−251637号公報JP 2005-251637 A 特開2009−37995号公報JP 2009-37995 A 特開2010−3579号公報JP 2010-3579 A 特開2010−3580号公報JP 2010-3580 A 特開2010−10044号公報JP 2010-10044 A

ところで、LEDは、その温度が上昇するに従い、その光出力が低下すると共に、その寿命も短くなることが知られている。そのため、上記の特許文献1によれば、光源であるLEDを、家庭内の電源であるソケットに螺合することにより電気的に接続される口金に近接してLEDを配置することにより、LEDの温度上昇を抑制することが既に知られている。   By the way, it is known that as the temperature rises, the light output of the LED decreases and its lifetime also shortens. Therefore, according to the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, by disposing the LED in the vicinity of the base that is electrically connected by screwing the LED as the light source into the socket as the power source in the home, It is already known to suppress the temperature rise.

しかしながら、上述した構造では、消費電力(光出力)の小さな電球型ランプでは十分なLEDの冷却を達成することが可能ではあるが、しかしながら、より大きな消費電力(光出力)を必要とする照明用の電球型ランプでは、その光源であるLEDの発熱量も大きくなる。そのため、更に、上述した特許文献2〜4により知られるように、上述した口金と、ガラスを外形略球状に形成して光源からの光を拡散するため部材、所謂、グローブとの間に、例えば、金属等の伝熱性に優れた放熱部材を配置し、当該放熱部材に発熱体であるLEDを搭載する構造が既に知られている。即ち、かかる構造によれば、当該放熱部材の外周面から、更には、フィン等により、LEDからの発熱をランプの外部に放射することにより、発熱量の大きなLEDの冷却を効率的に行うことにより、その温度上昇を抑制し、もって、ランプの長寿命化(省資源化)を達成している。   However, with the structure described above, it is possible to achieve sufficient LED cooling with a light bulb lamp with low power consumption (light output), however, for lighting that requires greater power consumption (light output). In this type of bulb-type lamp, the amount of heat generated by the LED as the light source also increases. Therefore, as is known from Patent Documents 2 to 4 described above, for example, between the base described above and a member for diffusing light from the light source by forming the glass into a substantially spherical outer shape, In addition, a structure in which a heat dissipating member having excellent heat conductivity such as metal is disposed and an LED as a heating element is mounted on the heat dissipating member is already known. That is, according to such a structure, the heat generated from the LED is radiated from the outer peripheral surface of the heat radiating member to the outside of the lamp by a fin or the like, thereby efficiently cooling the LED having a large heat generation amount. As a result, the temperature rise is suppressed, thereby extending the lamp life (resource saving).

上述したように、上記特許文献2〜4により知られる従来技術では、上述した金属製放熱部の表面積が放熱する熱量に比例するため、LEDからの発熱量の増大に伴って、当該放熱部も大きくなってしまう。そのため、その外形も従来の電球型ランプとは大きく異なるものとなってしまうという問題点があった。例えば、ミニクリプトン電球等の代替品となるような、比較的小型で発光出力の大きなLED電球を製造する場合、放熱に十分な電球筐体の表面積を確保することが難しく、更には、上記の従来技術による冷却構造では、照明器具に取り付ける際、そのフィン構造が大き過ぎて取り付けができない等の問題点もあった。更に、上記特許文献5に既に開示された熱伝導路では、以下にも詳細に述べるような利用の際の問題点があり、LED電球に適用する場合には、更なる改良が必要である。   As described above, in the prior arts known from Patent Documents 2 to 4, the surface area of the metal heat dissipating part is proportional to the amount of heat dissipated, so that the heat dissipating part also increases as the amount of heat generated from the LED increases. It gets bigger. For this reason, there is a problem that the outer shape of the lamp is greatly different from that of a conventional light bulb type lamp. For example, in the case of manufacturing a relatively small LED light bulb with a large light emission output, which is an alternative to a mini-krypton light bulb or the like, it is difficult to ensure a sufficient surface area of the light bulb housing for heat dissipation. In the cooling structure according to the prior art, there is a problem that, when attached to a lighting fixture, the fin structure is too large to be attached. Furthermore, the heat conduction path already disclosed in the above-mentioned Patent Document 5 has a problem in use as described in detail below, and further improvement is required when applied to an LED bulb.

このように、本発明が関わるLED電球では、その利用形態として、例えば、従来の照明器具において、従来の白熱ランプに代えて用いられることが多く、そのため、その外形も従来の電球型ランプに比べて大きく異なることは好ましくない。   As described above, the LED light bulb related to the present invention is often used in place of, for example, a conventional incandescent lamp in a conventional lighting fixture, and its outer shape is also compared with that of a conventional light bulb type lamp. It is not preferable that they differ greatly.

そこで、本発明は、上述した従来技術における問題点に鑑みて達成されたものであり、より具体的には、発熱体であるLEDからの発熱をより効率よく拡散することが可能であり、もって、より発光量の大きなLEDを利用しながらも、その温度上昇を抑制することにより、長寿命化(省資源化)が可能なLED電球を提供することをその目的とする。   Therefore, the present invention has been achieved in view of the above-described problems in the prior art, and more specifically, it is possible to more efficiently diffuse the heat generated from the LED, which is a heating element. An object of the present invention is to provide an LED bulb capable of extending the life (saving resources) by suppressing an increase in temperature while using an LED having a larger light emission amount.

Preferably, the heat conducting member is formed of a metal plate, and the part of the surface is in contact with the inner peripheral surface of the metal outer frame member.

FIG.

以下、本発明の実施の形態について、添付の図面を参照しながら詳細に説明する。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

まず、添付の図1には、本発明の一実施例(実施例1)になるLED(発光ダイオード)を光源として用いた電球型ランプ、即ち、LED電球1が、その一部を断面として示している。この図にも示すように、このLED電球1は、例えば、アルミニウムやマグネシウム合金など、所謂、良好な熱伝導性を共に、高い導電性を有する金属の成形品により構成され、かつ、その内部に空洞を形成すると共に、上部から下部に向かってその径を次第に小さくなる円錐状、又は、半球状に形成した外枠部材2を備えている。なお、この外枠部材2の上面には、その表面に発光素子3を搭載した搭載円板31を取り付けると共に、更に、その上部には、透光性の部材により略半球状に形成されたグローブ4が取り付けられている。即ち、発光素子3は、その発光面全体を上記グローブ4によって覆われ、そして、発光素子3からの光は当該透光性のグローブ4の内面に照射される。   First, in FIG. 1 attached, a part of a bulb-type lamp using an LED (light-emitting diode) as a light source, that is, an LED bulb 1 according to one embodiment (embodiment 1) of the present invention, is shown in cross section. ing. As shown in this figure, the LED bulb 1 is composed of a metal molded product having high conductivity and so-called good thermal conductivity, such as aluminum or magnesium alloy, and the inside thereof. The outer frame member 2 is formed with a conical shape or a hemispherical shape that gradually decreases in diameter from the upper portion toward the lower portion while forming a cavity. A mounting disc 31 having the light emitting element 3 mounted on the surface thereof is attached to the upper surface of the outer frame member 2, and a globe formed in a substantially hemispherical shape by a translucent member on the upper portion thereof. 4 is attached. That is, the entire light emitting surface of the light emitting element 3 is covered with the globe 4, and the light from the light emitting element 3 is applied to the inner surface of the translucent globe 4.

一方、当該外枠部材2の下部には、後にもその詳細について説明するが、その内部に点灯回路7を収容して保護するための樹脂製の基台部材5が取り付けられており、更に、当該基台部材5の下部には、口金部6が具備されている。なお、この樹脂製の基台部材5は、例えば、ポリカーボネート等の電気的絶縁部材により製作されており、これにより、その内部に収容した点灯回路を熱から保護する。   On the other hand, the lower part of the outer frame member 2 will be described in detail later, and a resin base member 5 for housing and protecting the lighting circuit 7 is attached to the inside, and further, A base portion 6 is provided at a lower portion of the base member 5. The resin base member 5 is made of, for example, an electrically insulating member such as polycarbonate, and thereby protects the lighting circuit housed therein from heat.

ここで、上記外枠部材2の上面に取り付けた円板31の表面に搭載された発光素子3は、一枚の半導体基板(1チップ)上に、例えば、複数(例えば、100個)の青色LEDを形成し、かつ、その表面全体に黄色の透光性のコーティング(白色光に変換する)を施して構成された、所謂、発光ダイオードであり、当該発光素子3は、例えば、伝熱性のセラミック材料を略円盤形状に形成してなる搭載円板31の上に、良熱伝導部材を介して、密着して、搭載(接着)されている。なお、良熱伝導部材としては、例えば、金属酸化物を混入したグリース状のシリコン樹脂やエポキシ樹脂が挙げられ、これによれば、発光素子3の半導体基板内で発生した熱は、その搭載円板31へ良好に伝達されることとなる。なお、本発明では、発光素子3としては、上述したように1チップ上に形成された1個の発光ダイオードだけに限定することなく、例えば、複数の青色LEDを1チップ上に形成し、その表面に透光性のコーティングを施した発光ダイオードを、複数個(複数チップ)、上記外枠部材2の上端に取り付けられる円板31の上面に搭載してもよい。また、図中の符号71は、上記点灯回路7からの駆動信号を発光素子3へ伝送するための接続線の一部を示している。   Here, the light emitting element 3 mounted on the surface of the disk 31 attached to the upper surface of the outer frame member 2 is, for example, a plurality of (for example, 100) blue colors on one semiconductor substrate (one chip). It is a so-called light-emitting diode formed by forming an LED and applying a yellow light-transmitting coating (converting to white light) on the entire surface. The light-emitting element 3 is, for example, a heat-conductive element. The ceramic material is mounted (adhered) in close contact with a good heat conducting member on a mounting disk 31 formed in a substantially disk shape. Examples of the good heat conducting member include grease-like silicon resin and epoxy resin mixed with metal oxide, and according to this, the heat generated in the semiconductor substrate of the light emitting element 3 It will be transmitted to the board 31 satisfactorily. In the present invention, the light-emitting element 3 is not limited to one light-emitting diode formed on one chip as described above. For example, a plurality of blue LEDs are formed on one chip. A plurality of (a plurality of chips) light emitting diodes having a light-transmitting coating on the surface may be mounted on the upper surface of the disk 31 attached to the upper end of the outer frame member 2. Reference numeral 71 in the drawing indicates a part of a connection line for transmitting a drive signal from the lighting circuit 7 to the light emitting element 3.

また、上述した外枠部材2の上端面の外周部には溝部21が形成され、一方、グローブ4の下端周辺には段差部41が形成されており、これらが互いに嵌まり合って一体に取り付けられるようになっている。なお、このグローブ4は、例えば、ガラスや樹脂等の、所謂、透光体を略半球状に形成したものであり、その内面側には、光を拡散するための拡散面を形成したものである。これにより、その内部空間に収納された発光素子3からの光(変換された白色光)は、その拡散面により、周囲に均一に拡散されることから、均一な照明が可能となる。   In addition, a groove portion 21 is formed on the outer peripheral portion of the upper end surface of the outer frame member 2 described above, while a step portion 41 is formed around the lower end of the globe 4, which are fitted to each other so as to be integrally attached. It is supposed to be. The globe 4 is formed by forming a so-called translucent body such as glass or resin in a substantially hemispherical shape, and having a diffusion surface for diffusing light on the inner surface side thereof. is there. Thereby, the light (converted white light) from the light emitting element 3 accommodated in the internal space is uniformly diffused to the surroundings by the diffusion surface, so that uniform illumination is possible.

続いて、添付の図2には、上記図1に示したLED電球1からそのグローブ4を取り除いた部分を拡大して示した一部拡大斜視図を示す。この図からも明らかなように、円錐状の外枠部材2の上端部には、上述したように、発光素子3をその表面に搭載した円板32が、例えば、良熱伝導部材により搭載(接着)され、更に、その下端には開口部22が形成されており、当該形成された開口部22からは、上述した点灯回路7を収容して保護するための樹脂製の基台部材5の一部、即ち、外形略円筒状に形成された回路収容部51が挿入されるように構成されている。なお、この外枠部材2の外周面には、一般に、その装飾性を保持するために塗装が施される。   Next, FIG. 2 attached herewith shows a partially enlarged perspective view in which a portion obtained by removing the globe 4 from the LED bulb 1 shown in FIG. 1 is enlarged. As is clear from this figure, as described above, the disc 32 having the light emitting element 3 mounted on the surface thereof is mounted on the upper end portion of the conical outer frame member 2 by, for example, a good heat conducting member ( Further, an opening 22 is formed at the lower end of the resin base member 5 for housing and protecting the above-described lighting circuit 7 from the formed opening 22. A part, that is, a circuit accommodating portion 51 formed in a substantially cylindrical shape is inserted. In general, the outer peripheral surface of the outer frame member 2 is painted in order to maintain its decorativeness.

即ち、上記樹脂製の基台部材5は、その上部には円筒状の中空部が形成され、上述した点灯回路7を収容するための回路収容部51を構成しており、その下部には、その外周に上述した口金部6が螺合される螺合部52が形成されておいる。更に、これらの間には、外周に突出した鍔部53が形成されている。かかる構成の基台部材5によれば、その回路収容部52が上記外枠部材2の下端に形成された開口部21に挿入され、所定の位置まで達すると、当該鍔部53が外枠部材2の下端面に当接し、もって、互いに所定位置に位置決めされる。そこで、例えば、接着剤等の接着部剤により、基台部材5と外枠部材2とを互いに密着して固定することが出来る。また、この樹脂製の基台部材5の下部には、図示のように、上述した口金の螺合部52が形成されており、当該螺合部53には、家庭内の電源であるソケットに螺合することにより電気的に接続される口金6が、その外周面に沿って形成された螺旋状の溝に沿って、図に矢印で示す方向に押し付けながら回転することにより、取り付けられる。   That is, the resin base member 5 is formed with a cylindrical hollow portion in the upper portion thereof, and constitutes a circuit accommodating portion 51 for accommodating the lighting circuit 7 described above. A screwing portion 52 to which the above-described base portion 6 is screwed is formed on the outer periphery. Further, a flange 53 protruding to the outer periphery is formed between them. According to the base member 5 having such a configuration, when the circuit housing portion 52 is inserted into the opening 21 formed at the lower end of the outer frame member 2 and reaches a predetermined position, the flange portion 53 becomes the outer frame member. 2 are in contact with the lower end surfaces of the two, and are thus positioned at predetermined positions. Therefore, for example, the base member 5 and the outer frame member 2 can be fixed in close contact with each other by an adhesive member such as an adhesive. Further, as shown in the figure, the above-described screwed portion 52 of the base is formed at the lower portion of the resin base member 5, and the screwed portion 53 is connected to a socket which is a household power source. The base 6 that is electrically connected by screwing is attached by rotating along the spiral groove formed along the outer peripheral surface while pressing in the direction indicated by the arrow in the drawing.

そして、本発明では、上記基台部材5の鍔部53には、当該鍔部の厚さ方向に貫通した貫通溝(スリット)55、55が複数個所(本例では、4箇所)に形成されており、そして、当該貫通溝55、55を介して、図に矢印で示すように、以下にその詳細を述べるが、上記外枠部材2へ伝達された発光素子3からの熱の一部を上記口金部6へ伝達する熱伝導路を形成するための部材、即ち、熱伝導部材7を取り付ける。   In the present invention, the flange portion 53 of the base member 5 is formed with a plurality of through grooves (slits) 55, 55 penetrating in the thickness direction of the flange portion (in this example, four locations). As shown by arrows in the figure through the through grooves 55 and 55, the details will be described below. However, a part of the heat from the light emitting element 3 transmitted to the outer frame member 2 is obtained. A member for forming a heat conduction path to be transmitted to the base 6, that is, a heat conduction member 7 is attached.

即ち、本発明では、LED電球1を構成する外枠部材2をあまり大きくすることなく、しかしながら、大型化(大出力化)する発光素子3で生じた熱を効率的に外部へ排出することも目的として、更に、上記外枠部材2の熱の一部を口金部6に逃がすための熱伝導路を設けるものであり。これにより、上記外枠部材2の外周側面からの熱の放射と共に、口金部6への伝熱の両方の放熱対策が可能となり、発光源であるLED部の温度上昇をより効果的に抑制するものである。なお、上述したように、上記のような問題に対しては、既に、口金部に熱伝導部材を設けて効果的に熱を逃がすための構造を提案している(特許文献5:特開2010−10044号公報)。   In other words, in the present invention, the outer frame member 2 constituting the LED bulb 1 is not so large, however, the heat generated in the light emitting element 3 which is enlarged (increased in output) can be efficiently discharged to the outside. For the purpose, a heat conduction path for releasing a part of the heat of the outer frame member 2 to the cap portion 6 is further provided. As a result, both heat radiation from the outer peripheral side surface of the outer frame member 2 and heat transfer to the cap portion 6 can be taken, and the temperature rise of the LED portion that is the light source can be more effectively suppressed. Is. As described above, in order to solve the above-described problems, a structure for effectively releasing heat by providing a heat conducting member in the base has already been proposed (Patent Document 5: JP 2010-2010 A). No. 10044).

しかしながら、例えば、銅(Cu)のような良好な熱伝導性を示す熱伝導部材は、良好な電導部材でもあり、これを利用して熱を口金部6へ逃がすための熱伝導部材7を形成した場合には、当該口金部6と外枠部材2とが、当該熱伝導部材7により、同電位になってしまい、製品の安全上、好ましくないという問題点がある。即ち、LED電球を、例えば、家庭内において、電源であるソケットに差し込もうとする場合、当該ソケットに流れる商用電源電圧が、口金部6から外枠部材2へ印加されてしまう。その際、外枠部材2の外周面には塗装が施されており、そのため、通常では、LED電球の交換を行っている人間に漏電することはないが、しかしながら、外枠部材2の外周面の塗装の一部が剥がれ、又は、不十分であった場合には、LED電球の交換を行っている人間が感電してしまうという危険がある。そのため、かかる危険を回避するために新しい構造が必要となる。   However, for example, a heat conductive member having good heat conductivity such as copper (Cu) is also a good conductive member, and the heat conductive member 7 for releasing heat to the base portion 6 is formed using this heat conductive member. In this case, there is a problem in that the base 6 and the outer frame member 2 are at the same potential due to the heat conducting member 7, which is not preferable in terms of product safety. That is, for example, when an LED bulb is to be inserted into a socket as a power source in a home, a commercial power supply voltage flowing through the socket is applied from the base 6 to the outer frame member 2. At that time, the outer peripheral surface of the outer frame member 2 is painted, and therefore, normally, no leakage occurs to the person who is replacing the LED bulb, however, the outer peripheral surface of the outer frame member 2 If a part of the paint is peeled off or insufficient, there is a risk that a person who is replacing the LED bulb will be electrocuted. Therefore, a new structure is required to avoid such danger.

そこで、本発明では、上述した熱伝導部材7を以下に述べるように構成することにより、熱的には、外枠部材2の熱の一部を口金部6へ効率的に伝達するが、他方、電気的には、外枠部材2を口金部6から確実に絶縁することを可能とした。   Therefore, in the present invention, by configuring the above-described heat conducting member 7 as described below, a part of the heat of the outer frame member 2 is efficiently transmitted to the base portion 6 thermally. Electrically, the outer frame member 2 can be reliably insulated from the base portion 6.

より具体的には、本発明の熱伝導部材7は、例えば、銅(Cu)のような良好な熱伝導性材料の板を、図2に示すように、その一部に切欠いた略円環状の本体部(外枠部材との接続部)71と、当該本体部71から下方に伸びて形成された、複数枚(本例では、4枚)の舌状部72、72とから構成されており、更に、当該本体部71の外周面には、後に詳述するが、熱伝導性に優れるが、しかし、電気的には絶縁性の高いコーティングによる被覆73が施されている。なお、この熱伝導部材7は、上記樹脂製の基台部材5の回路収容部52を、外枠部材2の下端に形成された開口部21に挿入する際、その本体部71を基台部材5の回路収容部51の外周を包むと共に、その舌状部72、72を、当該基台部材5の鍔部53に形成した貫通溝(スリット)55、55内に挿入した状態で取り付けられる。   More specifically, the heat conductive member 7 of the present invention is, for example, a substantially annular shape in which a plate of a good heat conductive material such as copper (Cu) is cut out as shown in FIG. Main body portion (connecting portion with the outer frame member) 71 and a plurality (four in this example) of tongue-like portions 72 and 72 formed to extend downward from the main body portion 71. Further, as will be described in detail later, the outer peripheral surface of the main body 71 is excellent in thermal conductivity, but is coated with a coating 73 that is electrically insulating. The heat conducting member 7 is configured such that when the circuit accommodating portion 52 of the resin base member 5 is inserted into the opening 21 formed at the lower end of the outer frame member 2, the main body portion 71 is the base member. 5, and the tongue-like portions 72 and 72 are attached in a state of being inserted into through grooves (slits) 55 and 55 formed in the flange portion 53 of the base member 5.

その結果、添付の図3の一部拡大断面図からも明らかなように、本発明の熱伝導部材7はその本体部71を、上記基台部材5を構成する回路収容部52の外周面と、上記外枠部材2の下端に形成された開口部21の内周面との間に挟まれる。また、その舌状部72、72は、図に矢印で示すように、樹脂製の基台部材5の鍔部54の下面に沿い、更には、その螺合部53の外周面に沿って折り曲げられる。その後、その上に口金部6が取り付けられ、その結果、舌状部72は、口金部6の上部との間で、互いに密着することとなる。これにより、熱伝導部材7は、外枠部材2と口金部6との間に接続されることとなり、このことにより、外枠部材2の熱の一部は、この熱伝導部材7を介して、口金部6に伝達する(逃がす)ための経路を形成する。なお、その際、熱伝導部材7の本体部71の外周面に予め形成されたコーティングの被覆73により、熱伝導部材7は、電気的には、外枠部材2との間で絶縁(遮断)されることとなる。   As a result, as is clear from the partially enlarged sectional view of FIG. 3 attached, the heat conducting member 7 of the present invention has its main body portion 71 and the outer peripheral surface of the circuit accommodating portion 52 constituting the base member 5. The outer frame member 2 is sandwiched between the inner peripheral surface of the opening 21 formed at the lower end of the outer frame member 2. Further, the tongue-like portions 72, 72 are bent along the lower surface of the flange portion 54 of the resin base member 5 and further along the outer peripheral surface of the screwing portion 53 as indicated by arrows in the drawing. It is done. Thereafter, the base part 6 is attached thereon, and as a result, the tongue-like part 72 comes into close contact with the upper part of the base part 6. As a result, the heat conducting member 7 is connected between the outer frame member 2 and the base 6, whereby a part of the heat of the outer frame member 2 passes through the heat conducting member 7. A path for transmitting (releasing) to the base 6 is formed. At this time, the heat conduction member 7 is electrically insulated (blocked) from the outer frame member 2 by the coating 73 formed in advance on the outer peripheral surface of the main body 71 of the heat conduction member 7. Will be.

加えて、上述した熱伝導部材7、特に、その本体部71の外周面(即ち、上記外枠部材2の内周面との接触面)に設けられたコーティングによる被覆73は、更に、以下の効果をも有する。即ち、上記外枠部材2の下端に形成された開口部21と、上記基台部材5の回路収容部52の外周面との間には、例えば、それぞれを射出成型等により作成する場合における公差などにより、隙間(ギャップ)が生じる。そして、この隙間を原因として、上記熱伝導部材7が、回路収容部52の外周面と開口部21の内周面との間において、十分に密着した状態で取り付けられないという事態が生じる可能性がある。その場合、当該熱伝導部材7の機能(即ち、外枠部材2の熱の一部を口金部6に逃がす)が損なわれてしまうことから好ましくない。そこで、コーティングによる被覆73は、所定の弾性を有することにより上記の隙間(ギャップ)を埋めることにより、熱伝導部材7を、上記外枠部材2の下端に形成された開口部21と、上記基台部材5の回路収容部52の外周面との間で、互いに密着させ(即ち、高い密着性を確保する)、もって、当該熱伝導部材7による機能を確保するものである。   In addition, the coating 73 provided by the coating provided on the heat conducting member 7 described above, in particular, the outer peripheral surface of the main body 71 (that is, the contact surface with the inner peripheral surface of the outer frame member 2), Also has an effect. That is, between the opening 21 formed at the lower end of the outer frame member 2 and the outer peripheral surface of the circuit housing portion 52 of the base member 5, for example, tolerance in the case of making each by injection molding or the like For example, a gap is generated. Due to this gap, there is a possibility that the heat conducting member 7 may not be attached in a sufficiently close contact state between the outer peripheral surface of the circuit housing portion 52 and the inner peripheral surface of the opening 21. There is. In that case, it is not preferable because the function of the heat conducting member 7 (that is, letting a part of heat of the outer frame member 2 escape to the base 6) is impaired. Therefore, the covering 73 by the coating fills the gap (gap) by having a predetermined elasticity, so that the heat conducting member 7 is connected to the opening 21 formed at the lower end of the outer frame member 2 and the base. The function of the heat conducting member 7 is secured by closely contacting each other with the outer peripheral surface of the circuit housing portion 52 of the base member 5 (that is, ensuring high adhesion).

続いて、上述した熱伝導部材7の詳細について、添付の図4及び図5を参照しながら説明する。なお、図4は、上記基台部材5と上記外枠部材2との間に取り付けられた状態の熱伝導部材7を示しており、図5は、当該熱伝導部材7を製造するための板材の一部を拡大して示す、一部拡大断面図である。   Next, details of the above-described heat conducting member 7 will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5. FIG. 4 shows the heat conducting member 7 attached between the base member 5 and the outer frame member 2, and FIG. 5 shows a plate material for manufacturing the heat conducting member 7. It is a partially expanded sectional view which expands and shows a part of.

かかる熱伝導部材7としては、例えば、金属酸化物を混入したエポキシ樹脂が考えられる。しかしながら、一般的に、熱伝導率が比較的高い材料は金属であることが多く、その場合、熱と同時に電流も流れる材料が多い。そのため、熱伝導率が高く、かつ、電気的に絶縁性の材料であり、かつ、密着性が高いという条件を満足する材料は見つけ難く、また、高価であり、製品に適用することが難しい。   As such a heat conducting member 7, for example, an epoxy resin mixed with a metal oxide can be considered. However, in general, a material having a relatively high thermal conductivity is often a metal, and in that case, there are many materials in which current flows simultaneously with heat. Therefore, it is difficult to find a material that satisfies the conditions of high thermal conductivity, an electrically insulating material, and high adhesion, and is expensive and difficult to apply to a product.

そこで、本発明では、熱伝導部材7に対して要求される上述した条件を満足する実用的な構成として、熱伝導部材7の本体部71とその舌状部72、72を、熱伝導率の高い金属である銅(Cu)の板材により形成する。そして、熱伝導部材7の本体部71の外周表面には、以下の被覆73を、コーティングによって施す。即ち、本体部71の外周表面には、まず、電気的な絶縁を確保するため、例えば、ポリアミドイミド(PAI)の被覆(以下、「第一樹脂性薄膜731」)を、例えば、約0.02mmの厚さで施す。その後、形成したポリイミドアミド被覆の上から、更に、高い柔軟性を備え、熱伝導率が高く、かつ、絶縁性のエラストマ(以下、「第二樹脂性薄膜732」)を約0.25mmの厚さで施す。   Therefore, in the present invention, as a practical configuration that satisfies the above-described conditions required for the heat conducting member 7, the main body 71 of the heat conducting member 7 and its tongues 72, 72 are made to have a thermal conductivity. It forms with the board | plate material of copper (Cu) which is a high metal. And the following coating | coated 73 is given to the outer peripheral surface of the main-body part 71 of the heat conductive member 7 by coating. That is, the outer peripheral surface of the main body 71 is first coated with, for example, a polyamideimide (PAI) coating (hereinafter referred to as “first resinous thin film 731”), for example, about 0. Apply at a thickness of 02 mm. After that, a polyimide film having a thickness of about 0.25 mm is formed on the formed polyimide amide coating with a high flexibility, a high thermal conductivity, and an insulating elastomer (hereinafter referred to as “second resinous thin film 732”). Apply it.

即ち、熱伝導部材7は、上記基台部材5の回路収容部52と上記外枠部材2の開口部21の間に挟まれる部分を、上述した三層(即ち、銅板、PAI層、エラストマ層)構造で形成する。これによれば、金属の伝熱板である熱伝導部材7の本体部71の外側には、まず、耐熱性、密着性、高熱伝導性、そして、絶縁性に優れた第一樹脂性薄膜731が形成され、更に、その上には、外枠部材2との密着性を保つために、上記第一樹脂性薄膜731の5倍以上の厚みがあり、耐熱性、密着性、高熱伝導性、絶縁性が高く、かつ、弾性を有すると共に、更には、温度変化に対する復元力にも優れた第二樹脂性薄膜732を設ける。このような構成とすることにより、温度が上昇又は低下して熱伝導部材7が膨張又は収縮した場合でも、上記第二樹脂性薄膜732変形することから、当該熱伝導部材7は、上記基台部材5と上記外枠部材2との間で、常に、良好な密着性を保つことが可能となる。即ち、これにより、外枠部材2に伝達された発光素子3からの熱の一部を、当該熱伝導部材7を介して、上記口金部6に逃がすことが可能となる。   In other words, the heat conducting member 7 is formed of the above-described three layers (that is, a copper plate, a PAI layer, and an elastomer layer) between the circuit accommodating portion 52 of the base member 5 and the opening 21 of the outer frame member 2. ) Form with structure. According to this, the first resinous thin film 731 excellent in heat resistance, adhesion, high thermal conductivity, and insulation is first formed on the outside of the main body 71 of the heat conducting member 7 which is a metal heat transfer plate. Furthermore, in order to maintain the adhesiveness with the outer frame member 2, there is a thickness five times or more than the first resinous thin film 731, and heat resistance, adhesiveness, high thermal conductivity, A second resinous thin film 732 is provided that is highly insulating and elastic, and also excellent in resilience against temperature changes. By adopting such a configuration, even when the temperature rises or falls and the heat conducting member 7 expands or shrinks, the second resinous thin film 732 is deformed. It is possible to always maintain good adhesion between the member 5 and the outer frame member 2. In other words, this enables part of the heat from the light emitting element 3 transmitted to the outer frame member 2 to escape to the cap portion 6 via the heat conducting member 7.

なお、上述した熱伝導部材7の本体部71の被覆73については、必ずしも上述した構成に限定されるものではなく、例えば、添付の図6(A)〜(C)に示すものであってもよい。即ち、例えば、図6(A)は、上記第一樹脂性薄膜731と第二樹脂性薄膜732を、当該本体部71の両面に亘って形成したものであり、図6(B)は、上記第一樹脂性薄膜731を、当該本体部71の一方の面(特に、外枠部材2の内周と接触する面)に、他方、上記第二樹脂性薄膜732を、その反対側の面に、それぞれ、形成したものである。即ち、本体部71の被覆73は、上記熱伝導部材7を介して、外枠部材2の熱の一部を口金部6に逃がし、かつ、電気的には、外枠部材2との間を絶縁すればよい。更には、図6(C)にも示すように、上記第一樹脂性薄膜731を、当該本体部71の一方の面(特に、外枠部材2の内周と接触する面)に形成すると共に、その反対側の面には、例えば、ゴム等で形成されるOリング733を用いることも可能である。   In addition, about the coating | coated 73 of the main-body part 71 of the heat conductive member 7 mentioned above, it is not necessarily limited to the structure mentioned above, For example, even what is shown to attached FIG. 6 (A)-(C). Good. That is, for example, FIG. 6A shows the first resinous thin film 731 and the second resinous thin film 732 formed on both surfaces of the main body 71, and FIG. The first resinous thin film 731 is disposed on one surface of the main body 71 (particularly, the surface in contact with the inner periphery of the outer frame member 2), and the second resinous thin film 732 is disposed on the opposite surface. , Respectively. That is, the covering 73 of the main body 71 allows a part of the heat of the outer frame member 2 to escape to the base 6 via the heat conducting member 7, and electrically between the outer frame member 2. Insulate. Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 6C, the first resinous thin film 731 is formed on one surface of the main body 71 (particularly, the surface that contacts the inner periphery of the outer frame member 2). For example, an O-ring 733 formed of rubber or the like can be used on the opposite surface.

更に、本発明の他の実施例(実施例2)について、添付の図7及び図8を参照しながら、以下に説明する。なお、この実施例2においても、上記実施例1と同一の構成要素については、同一の参照番号を付しており、重複を避けるため、その詳細な説明は省略する。   Further, another embodiment (embodiment 2) of the present invention will be described below with reference to the attached FIG. 7 and FIG. In the second embodiment, the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof is omitted to avoid duplication.

図からも明らかなように、この実施例2では、特に、その内部に点灯回路7を収容して保護するための樹脂製の基台部材5が、上記実施例1とは異なり、アルミニウムやマグネシウム合金などの良好な熱伝導性を共に、高い導電性を有する金属の成形品により構成され、その上面には、発光素子3を搭載した搭載円板31を取り付ける外枠部材2に対して、その上方から挿入されて取り付けられる構造となっている。即ち、この実施例2の構造では、その内部空間に点灯回路7を収容した樹脂製の基台部材5を、外枠部材2に対して、その上方から挿入し、その上から、更に、その上面に発光素子3を搭載した搭載円板31が載せられる。その後、例えば、ネジ33により、搭載円板31を外枠部材2に対して固定する。そのため、樹脂製の基台部材5には、上述した鍔部53は形成されておらず、そして、図からも明らかなように、比較的大きな回路収容部51を確保することが可能となる。   As is apparent from the figure, in the second embodiment, in particular, the resin base member 5 for housing and protecting the lighting circuit 7 is different from the first embodiment in that aluminum or magnesium is used. It is composed of a metal molded product having high conductivity, such as an alloy having good heat conductivity, and the upper surface of the outer frame member 2 to which the mounting disk 31 on which the light emitting element 3 is mounted is attached. It is structured to be inserted and attached from above. That is, in the structure of the second embodiment, the resin base member 5 in which the lighting circuit 7 is accommodated in the internal space is inserted into the outer frame member 2 from above, and further from above, A mounting disc 31 on which the light emitting element 3 is mounted is placed on the upper surface. Thereafter, for example, the mounting disk 31 is fixed to the outer frame member 2 with screws 33. For this reason, the above-described flange portion 53 is not formed on the resin base member 5 and, as is apparent from the drawing, a relatively large circuit housing portion 51 can be secured.

上述した構造の違い、特に、基台部材5の略中央部に形成される鍔部53が存在しないことから、本実施例2では、上記基台部材5と上記外枠部材2との間に挟まれて取り付けられる熱伝導部材7’、7”は、添付の図8に示すような形状を有している。例えば、図8(A)は、一枚の部材により、基台部材5と外枠部材2との間に挟まれる(挿入される)本体部71を形成し、その下部には、上記と同様に、複数枚(本例では、4枚)の舌状部72、72を形成したものである。或いは、図8(B)に示すように、本体部71を複数に分離して形成し(本例では、2枚)、それぞれ、その下部には複数枚(本例では、2枚)の舌状部72、72を形成してもよい。そして、本体部71の外周面(上記外枠部材2との接触面)には、上記と同様にして、第一樹脂性薄膜と第二樹脂性薄膜とからなる被覆73が形成されている。また、上記基台部材5の螺合部53の外周面に沿って、口金6を押し付けながら回転して取り付けることにより、舌状部72と口金部6とが互いに密着することは、上記と同様である。   In the second embodiment, the difference between the structures described above, in particular, the absence of the flange 53 formed at the substantially central portion of the base member 5, is between the base member 5 and the outer frame member 2. The heat conducting members 7 ′ and 7 ″ attached by being sandwiched have a shape as shown in FIG. 8 attached. For example, FIG. A main body portion 71 sandwiched (inserted) between the outer frame member 2 is formed, and a plurality of (four in this example) tongue-like portions 72, 72 are formed in the lower portion thereof in the same manner as described above. Alternatively, as shown in Fig. 8 (B), the main body 71 is separated into a plurality of pieces (in this example, two pieces), and a plurality of pieces (in this example, in this example) Two tongue-like portions 72, 72 may be formed, and the outer peripheral surface of the main body 71 (contact surface with the outer frame member 2) is the same as described above. Thus, a coating 73 made of the first resinous thin film and the second resinous thin film is formed, and rotated while pressing the base 6 along the outer peripheral surface of the screwing portion 53 of the base member 5. The tongue portion 72 and the base portion 6 are in close contact with each other by being attached in the same manner as described above.

なお、上述した熱伝導部材7’、7”によっても、上記図7かも明らかなように、上述した実施例と同様に、上記外枠部材2の下端に形成された開口部21と、上記基台部材5の回路収容部52の外周面との間で、互いに密着させ(即ち、高い密着性を確保する)、もって、当該熱伝導部材7による機能を確保する。即ち、外枠部材2の熱の一部を、当該熱伝導部材を介して、口金部6に伝達する(逃がす)ための経路を形成すると共に、電気的には、外枠部材2を口金部6に対して絶縁することとなる。なお、この図7に示した例では、例えば、アルミニウム等から形成される外枠部材2の下端部に切欠き部25を設け、これにより、口金部6に対する外枠部材2を高め、より確実な絶縁性を確保している。即ち、LED電球の交換を行っている際に、人間が、アルミニウムやマグネシウム合金などの金属からなる外枠部材2に触れたとしても、感電する危険性から解消される。   It should be noted that the above-described heat conducting members 7 ′ and 7 ″ also allow the opening 21 formed at the lower end of the outer frame member 2 and the base as in the above-described embodiment to be clear as shown in FIG. The base member 5 is in close contact with the outer peripheral surface of the circuit housing portion 52 (that is, high adhesion is ensured), thereby ensuring the function of the heat conducting member 7. That is, the outer frame member 2 is provided. Forming a path for transferring (releasing) a part of heat to the base part 6 via the heat conducting member, and electrically insulating the outer frame member 2 from the base part 6 7, for example, a notch 25 is provided at the lower end portion of the outer frame member 2 formed of aluminum or the like, thereby increasing the outer frame member 2 with respect to the base portion 6. This ensures more reliable insulation, that is, replace the LED bulb. When you are a human, even touches the outer frame member 2 made of a metal such as aluminum and magnesium alloys, are eliminated from the risk of electric shock.

なお、上述した各実施例においては、上記基台部材5の回路収容部52の空間内部には、点灯回路7が格納されているが、当該点灯回路7以外の空間には、ここでは図示しないが、例えば、高伝導性樹脂を埋め込むことによれば、点灯回路7が発する熱を、当該回路収容部52の外部へ効率的に伝熱し逃がすこと可能となる。   In each of the above-described embodiments, the lighting circuit 7 is stored in the space of the circuit housing portion 52 of the base member 5, but the space other than the lighting circuit 7 is not shown here. However, for example, by embedding a highly conductive resin, the heat generated by the lighting circuit 7 can be efficiently transferred to the outside of the circuit housing portion 52 and released.

以上の詳述したように、本発明になるLED電球によれば、比較的に簡単かつ安価な構造により、その内部における発熱の一部を、口金に逃がすと共に、金属製の外枠部材2の外周面から放射ることが、同時に確保されることとなる。これにより、特に、発光素子部の熱を効果的に逃がすことが可能となり、もって、温度上昇を抑制することによるLED電球の長寿命を図ることが出来る。   As described above in detail, according to the LED bulb according to the present invention, a part of the heat generated inside is released to the base by a relatively simple and inexpensive structure, and the metal outer frame member 2 is Radiation from the outer peripheral surface is ensured at the same time. Thereby, in particular, it becomes possible to effectively release the heat of the light emitting element portion, and thus it is possible to achieve a long life of the LED bulb by suppressing the temperature rise.
