  • Light-emitting diode net light
    Patent number: 11313523
    Abstract: A light-emitting diode (LED) net light includes a plurality of electrical lines and a plurality of LEDs. Each of the plurality of LEDs is connected across two adjacent electrical lines without breaking the plurality of electrical lines. The plurality of LEDs connected to the same electrical line are mutually spaced, and the plurality of LEDs in the same row are respectively connected to two different electrical lines and are mutually spaced. In the LED net light, the plurality of LEDs are directly connected by plurality of the electrical lines, such that the plurality of LEDs serve as nodes to enable the plurality of electrical lines to stretch into a net structure. Accordingly, the invention does not use those supporting lines, but forms a net structure by having each of the plurality of LEDs be connected across two adjacent electrical lines.
