Abstract: A light guide structure including a conical hollow light guide element having reflective inner surface, a light-emitting element (e.g., an LED) provided in one end of the conical light guide element, and a reflective element covering an opening on the other end of the conical light guide element and including a light-permeable region and an opaque reflective region corresponding to an optical axis of the light-emitting element, with the light-permeable region is located around the opaque reflective region and outside the optical axis.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide a light guide structure, which includes a conical light guide element being a hollow cone and having an inner surface configured as a reflective surface, a light-emitting element (e.g., an LED) provided in a pointed end of the conical light guide element, and a partially blocking reflective element covering an opening on the other end of the conical light guide element and including a light-permeable region and an opaque reflective region. The opaque reflective region corresponds in position to an optical axis of the light-emitting element, and the light-permeable region is located around the opaque reflective region and outside the optical axis. Thus, when the light emitted by the light-emitting element passes through the conical light guide element, the light will be repeatedly reflected by the reflective surface and the partially blocking reflective element until being fully projected to and penetrates the light-permeable region.
