Patent number: 8021017Abstract: The LED lamp contains one or more base plates, each having a plurality of through terminal holes connected by a patterned conduction layer. The base plates are separated by support tubes and a number of LEDs have their terminals threaded through the terminal holes and soldered to the conduction layers of the base plates. When the LEDs are turned on, the produced heat is dissipated first by the lengthy terminals of the LEDs between the base plates, and then by the extended conduction layers along the base plates. A large number of LEDs therefore could be packed into an even smaller space and the LED lamp has an even lower production cost.Type: GrantFiled: May 21, 2009Date of Patent: September 20, 2011Inventor: Sheng-Hsiung Cheng
