  • Patent number: 11054089
    Abstract: A lighting device (in particular an MR-16 or a PAR-16 lamp) comprises a housing and a lens. A light module having a light source and a driver is attached to the lens. The lens is connected to the housing by means of a snap-on connection or by means of a formed (thermally, for example) edge section.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10598367
    Abstract: A light module serves for inserting into a housing of a semiconductor lamp and comprises: a driver (2), a cooling element, a light generator, abutting the cooling element, with at least one semiconductor light source, which is electrically connected with the driver, and an optical refraction element covering the at least one semiconductor light source, wherein the refraction element is fastened on the cooling element and presses the light generator onto the cooling element. A semiconductor lamp comprises a housing open at the front into which the light module is inserted from the front side and on which the light module is fastened. A method serves for producing a semiconductor lamp, wherein at least the driver, the cooling element, the light generator and the refraction element are assembled into an individually manageable light module and the light module is then inserted into a housing.
