  • Publication number: 20030027477
    Abstract: A manufacturing method of Christmas lamp bulb with multiple light spots is proposed. The upper half of a glass pipe is processed by blowing to form a bulb body, and a bulb head is simultaneously formed at the top end of the bulb body by blowing. Next, a mold is used for the step of integral die-casting to form various kinds of strips and patterns on the surface of the bulb body. A light-emitting device is then installed in the bulb body. Subsequently, air in the bulb body is extracted out to vacuate the inside of the bulb body. Finally, a sealing operation is performed to the bulb body to finish a Christmas lamp bulb. Through modification of the surface structure, diversified lighting effects can be produced to effectively set off a string of lamps, hence achieving a better decorative effect.
