Patent number: 8807792Abstract: A lighting apparatus is disclosed. The disclosed lighting apparatus omni-directionally radiates light emitted from a light emitting diode (LED) in a uniform light intensity. The lighting apparatus may include at least one LED and a reflector to reflect light emitted from the at least one LED. The reflector may include openings that are positioned to correspond to a position of a respective LED. The LED may emit light in a first direction and the reflector may reflect the light in a second direction such that a difference in light intensity at any angle within a first range between 0° to 135° with respect to the first direction is less than or equal 20% of an average light intensity of the entire range, and a light flux within a second range between 135° to 180° is greater than or equal to 5% of the total flux.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2012Date of Patent: August 19, 2014Assignee: LG Electronics Inc.Inventors: Hankyu Cho, Jaehwan Kim, Dongki Paik
