Publication number: 20140111996Abstract: A lamp apparatus include a lamp body, at least an alternating current light-emitting diode and a plug. The alternating current light-emitting diode is disposed on a lamp body. The plug is electrically connected to the alternating current light-emitting diode. In lamp apparatuses utilizing AC LED, heat generated thereby is almost concentrated on chips. Compared with conventional lamp apparatuses utilizing DC LEDs, heat generated thereby is distributed on chips and outer rectifier. In lamp apparatuses utilizing AC LEDs, heat generated thereby is almost concentrated on chips because AC LEDs operate directly with AC electric power, omitting a rectifier and preventing power loss during operation of power rectification. Therefore, the heat accumulated on the chips of the AC LEDs is enough to be used to evaporate essential oil. In another embodiment, the invention utilizes low-resistance pure water surrounding the AC LED to dissipate its heat.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 2, 2014Publication date: April 24, 2014Applicant: Epistar CorporationInventors: Wen-Yung YEH, Jui-Ying LIN, Yu-Chen YU, Yu-Chun LIN, Ta-Wei CHIEN, Ming-Te LIN, Yu-Chun LIN

Publication number: 20130194806Abstract: The present invention is an improved LED lighting module. Preferably, the LED lighting module comprises a first LED base, a central LED base containing a printed circuit board, and a third LED base, where the first and third bases are connected by spacer tubes. Each LED base has an LED pc-board mounted thereon. A main power line runs through the set of three LED bases. A first series connector line connects the printed circuit board to the first LED board and a second series connector line connects the printed circuit board to the third LED board. A first connection line connects the first LED board to the central LED board and a second connection line connects the central LED board to the third LED board. These LED module sets can be connected consecutively to create strings of series wired sets from the same main power lines.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 1, 2012Publication date: August 1, 2013Inventor: Gregory S. Smith

Publication number: 20130188353Abstract: An LED module includes a circular body member for mounting in a lighting assembly or luminaire that can be oriented in an opening in the luminaire by rotating the module about a center axis to a predetermined position to direct the light in a selected pattern. A mounting assembly captures the LED modules between top and bottom mounting members. The LED modules include a heat conducting body coupled to the mounting assembly to conduct heat away from the LED and PCB. A top side of the LED body cooperates with the mounting assembly. A bottom side of the LED body has a cavity supporting a PCB with a plurality of LEDs. A lens body is coupled to the bottom side of the body of the LED module to direct the light to the target area.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 24, 2013Publication date: July 25, 2013Applicant: HUBBELL INCORPORATEDInventor: HUBBELL INCORPORATED
