Patent for Sale:

LED Light Bulb with Improved Illumination and Heat Dissipation    

A new LED light bulb and patented technology capable of providing both up and down direct lights with a new cooling structure to enhace the cooling of the LED modules.

Overview

Granted Canadian patent and two registered design patents related to a new LED light bulb capable of providing both direct up and down lights with an enhanced cooling structure are looking for licensing or transferring of patent rights. Technical benefits of the invention mainly relate to an LED light bulb capable of providing a greater angle of illumination and having both direct up and down lights without excess use of reflective means (currently unseen in the market; the use of reflective cups may reduce the overall light output by approx. 7% per reflection) and a new cooling structure to effectively dissipate the heat to the ambient. While the patent disclosing a number of different configurations and structures, the patented invention basically utilizes a simple but yet practical solution of two ring-like LED modules and a novel structure to facilitating the cooling of the LED modules. In short, among all the different LED light bulbs currently available and widely distributed with increasing demands in US, CA, EP, JP, TW and CN markets, the current LED bulbs may either be of complicated structures or simply have the capability to only provide front (or up) lights. In addition, the heat dissipation remains as an issue to LED lighting. The invention solves the problem by offering a unique solution including configurations, assemblies and materials outlined in the specification and drawings of the granted patents. The patents include one invention with 30 claims and two registered design patents. The patents offer not only a great guideline to the actual implementation or commercialization of the LED light bulb but also a great scope covering a relatively broad scope of an LED light bulb.

Primary Application of the Technology

Lighting, LED/OLED Lighting, Light Bulb

The Problem Solved by the Technology

The technical problem the invention is intended to solve is the significantly increased angle of illumination of an LED light bulb with effective cooling to dissipate heat from the LED modules of the LED bulb. Currently and most other products or technologies utilize different ways to achieve this by incorporating a mutiple number of LED modules in various angles or by introducing heat sinks to the back of the light bulb, which may not be optimal in either way. The patented technology is unique and offers a simple buy yet practical solution to overcome the illumination angle and cooling issues of an LED light bulb.

How the Technology Solves the Problem

The patented technology as detailed in the specification and drawings as well as its claims covers a number of different configurations, assemblies and materials to solving the problem of illumination angle and heat dissipation issues of an LED light bulb. The central concept offered and protected by the patented technology is to have a pair of LED modules in ring-like shape (preferably arranged in an alternate manner to prevent overlapping) to generate both up and down direct lights without excess use of reflective means (the use of reflective cups may generate a greater illumination angle but may too reduce the overall light output by approx. 7% per reflection) and a novel central stem configured and arranged to facilitate the heat conduction and cooling of the LED modules to the ambient.

Competitive Advantage

In the past, most of LED application makers, in particular LED light bulb makers, tend to either have a complicated structure involving a multiple numbers of LED modules to provide a desired illumination or have a light bulb that is only capable of producing front (or up) lights only. A solution to deal with the direct lights to both front and back (or up and down) direct lights with improved cooling seems provided by the this invention.

The invention provides a unique solution to an LED light bulb demonstrating a simple but yet practical solution of how to arrange, configure and overcome the limited space for electronic and circuitry in an LED light bulb while providing an improved illumination of both direct up and down lights. By introducing a central stem and providing two ring-like LED modules as shown and covered by the patents, the invention provides a solution to an LED light bulb and patent rights to LED makers.
