A flexible LED strip light with an integrated light guide and its manufacturing method

Abstract

The invention discloses a flexible LED strip-shaped lamp with integrated light guiding pieces. The flexible LED strip-shaped lamp with the integrated light guiding pieces comprises a flexible strip-shaped LED light source and a flexible covering layer covering the flexible strip-shaped LED light source. The flexible strip-shaped LED light source is formed in the mode that multiple LEDs are welded to a flexible strip-shaped circuit board. The flexible LED strip-shaped lamp is characterized in that the covering layer is provided with the light guiding pieces protruding from the outer surface of the covering layer, each light guiding piece corresponds to the corresponding LED, the light guiding pieces are independent of one another, and the light guiding pieces and the covering layer are of an integrated structure; The invention further discloses a manufacturing method of the flexible LED strip-shaped lamp. According to the manufacturing method, the light guiding pieces are formed on the covering layer through the cutting technology or the mold-injecting technology or the mold strip technology or the extruding technology. The flexible LED strip-shaped lamp with the integrated light guiding pieces has the advantages of being firm in structure, excellent in light-guiding effect, excellent in light diffusing effect, good in waterproof effect and capable of achieving a good point light source effect.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of decoration and lighting, in particular to a flexible LED strip light with an integrated light guide, which has a firm structure, excellent light guide and astigmatism effects, good waterproof effect, and can achieve a good point light source effect. The invention relates to a manufacturing method of a flexible LED strip light with an integrated light guide. Background technique [0002] The light string made of LED can produce multiple small point light sources when it is powered on, that is, one LED can produce a small point light source, which can be installed on trees or shapes or other items, and has a good effect on holidays. The decorative effect can well render the festive atmosphere. LED light strings have become an indispensable decorative item for many families and shopping malls at home and abroad. [0003] The traditional LED light string is connected in parallel by a plurality of plug-in LEDs ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] 1. LED light strings are basically used outdoors, which requires that the LED light strings must have a good waterproof effect, and the above-mentioned traditional LED light string structure has been proved to have poor waterproof effect or no waterproof effect at all after years of practice.

[0005] 2. In the traditional LED light string, each plug-in LED is soldered to each wire separately. Since there are many LEDs on each LED light string, such as hundreds or even hundreds of LEDs, it is necessary to cut a lot of LEDs. Wires are welded by hand, the production is not easy to operate, and the process is complicated, resulting in low production efficiency

The LED strip light has a good waterproof effect because it has a transparent or light-transmitting coating, but the light generated by the LED strip light will guide or scatter light to the length of the lamp body through the coating, so that the The light produced by the LED strip light is a linear light source instead of a point light source, so there is no way to replace the traditional LED light string

[0007] There is another type of LED strip light structure: the plug-in LED (DIP LED) is directly inserted into the cladding layer and electrically connected to the circuit board inside the cladding layer to form an LED strip light; or the plug-in LED (DIP LED) is electrically connected to the circuit board inside the cladding layer through the lamp holder to form an LED strip light, in which the lamp holder is electrically connected to the circuit board inside the cladding layer, both of which are done manually Plug-in LEDs have low production efficiency. At the same time, the plug-in LEDs of these two structures are not waterproof because they are exposed to the air. They can only be used indoors and cannot be used outdoors.
