Patent number: 9360201Abstract: A lighting device for a vehicle lamp has a base, a substrate, a conducting rib and an LED module. The substrate is mounted in the base. The conducting rib is perpendicularly mounted on the base and has a first heat-dissipating surface and a second heat-dissipating surface opposite to the first heat-dissipating surface. The conducting rib provides two heat dissipating paths to increase the heat dissipating efficiency. The LED module is mounted on a distal end of the conducting rib and extends out of the base, and the LED module is electrically connected to the substrate. The LED module extends out of the base to accurately correspond to a reflection space around a lamp seat and improve the light-homogenizing effect of the vehicle lamp.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2014Date of Patent: June 7, 2016Assignee: DBM REFLEX OF TAIWAN CO., LTD.Inventors: Min-Hwa Chou, Yin-Chen Huang

Publication number: 20140104860Abstract: A lighting device for a car lamp has a base, at least one controlling board and at least one LED module. The at least one controlling board is mounted on an assembling surface of the base and extends outside the base to reduce the volume of the base. Each one of the at least one controlling board has an outer side surface and a working surface formed on the outer side surface and parallel to the axis of the base. The at least one LED module is mounted respectively on the working surface of the at least one controlling board to increase the illumination of the side area of the lighting device. Thus, the light-homogenizing effect for the light emitted from the lighting device is improved.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 12, 2012Publication date: April 17, 2014Applicant: DBM REFLEX OF TAIWAN CO., LTD.Inventor: Min-Hwa CHOU

Publication number: 20140063800Abstract: A lighting device has a holder, multiple LED modules and multiple light-homogenized elements. The holder has an axis and multiple working surfaces. The axis is defined axially through the pillar and the base. The working surfaces are formed in an outer side surface of the holder and are arranged around the axis. The LED modules are respectively mounted on the working surfaces of the holder. The light-homogenized elements are respectively mounted on the working surfaces of the holder. Therefore, the LED modules are respectively positioned on the working surfaces to increase the illumination of the side area of the lighting device, and the light-homogenized effect of the light emitted from the lighting device is improved by the light-homogenized elements.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2012Publication date: March 6, 2014Inventor: Min-Hwa CHOU

Publication number: 20120307504Abstract: A lampshade has a body and multiple light-concentrating units formed on the body. Each light-concentrating unit has a light input recess and a light output protrusion. The light input recess is defined in one of the side of the body and has an inner wall to define a holding space in the light input recess. The light output protrusion is formed on and protrudes from the other side of the body, corresponds to the light input recess and has a smooth outer wall. Accordingly, the light emitting from an LED lamp can be further concentrated with the curvatures of the inner walls of the light input recesses and the outer walls of the light output protrusions, such that the illumination of the light emitted from the LED lamp can be improved.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 3, 2011Publication date: December 6, 2012Inventor: Min-Hwa CHOU

Patent number: 8272759Abstract: An LED lampshade has a body and multiple light concentrators. The body has a light exit plane. The light concentrators are formed on the body. Each light concentrator has a light incident recess, a light transmitting recess and an third concentration wall. The light incident recess has a first concentration wall and a first chamber defined by the first concentration wall. The light transmitting recess corresponds to the light incident recess, and has a second concentration wall, a second chamber defined by the second concentration wall and opposite to the first chamber, and an opening formed through the light exit plane. The third concentration wall is formed around a periphery of the light concentrator. Given the opposite light incident recess and light transmitting recess and the three concentration walls, the LED lampshade enhances light transmittance and concentration therethrough.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2011Date of Patent: September 25, 2012Assignee: DBM Reflex of Taiwan Co., Ltd.Inventor: Min-Hwa Chou
