  • Patent number: 9236549
    Abstract: The present invention provides a heat conducting slug having a multi-step structure, which is installed to an LED package to dissipate heat generated from a light emitting chip to the outside. The heat conducting slug includes a first slug, a second slug formed on the first slug, and a third slug formed on the second slug, wherein the light emitting chip is mounted to the third slug, and the second and third slugs respectively shaped to have edges are arranged to cross each other. In this configuration, heat generated from a light emitting chip follows a heat dissipation path, in which the heat is gathered at edges of one slug and dissipated therefrom and then gathered toward edges of another slug, arranged to cross the one slug. Accordingly, the entire heat dissipation path is not concentrated at a specific region but generally distributed widely, thereby improving a heat dissipation effect of the heat conducting slug.
