[0002] LED modules are one of the important components of LED display screens. Existing LED modules have the following problems:

[0003] (1) The copper pillar soldering process is simple. The copper pillar soldering is in contact with the surface of the copper pillar soldering pad. During soldering, soldering can only be performed on the circumference of the cylindrical body of the copper pillar, resulting in the copper pillar soldering being not strong. In addition, considering the temperature problem, soldering of the copper pillar soldering is difficult and wastes tin.

[0004] (2) Since the copper pillars of the SMD will be uneven after being soldered, the LED light board contacts the bottom shell during assembly. The copper pillars of the SMD need to keep a gap with the bottom shell to ensure that the flatness of the LED module is not affected. However, it is not considered that the long-term pulling force of the screws on the copper pillars of the SMD after assembly will weaken the firmness of the copper pillars of the SMD and easily cause the copper pillars of the SMD to fall off. The pulling force and torque of the screws are relatively large. Summary of the invention

[0028] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an LED module, comprising a bottom shell 1, an LED light board 2, and a plurality of connecting components 3 connecting the bottom shell 1 and the LED light board 2. The LED light board 2 is mounted with a plurality of LED lamp beads for emitting light, and the connecting components 3 are located between the LED light board 2 and the bottom shell 1 to achieve a firm connection between the LED light board 2 and the bottom shell 1.

[0029] The connecting component 3 includes a copper column 4, a first buffer component 5 and a connecting component 6, the first end of the copper column 4 is connected to the LED light board 2, the second end of the copper column 4 extends into the first buffer component 5, the connecting component 6 is connected between the bottom shell 1 and the second end of the copper column 4, the first buffer component 5 is arranged between the bottom shell 1 and the LED light board 2, and the end of the first buffer component 5 away from the LED light board 2 abuts against the bottom shell 1.

[0030] In the present invention, the connection between the second end of the copper column 4 and the connecting piece 6 is located in the first buffer member 5. After the LED light board 2 is assembled with the bottom shell 1, the first buffer member 5 is located in the gap between the copper column 4 and the bottom shell 1, which has a buffering effect on the tension exerted on the copper column 4, prevents the copper column 4 from separating from the LED light board 2, and plays a good role in protecting the copper column 4, increasing the firmness and reliability of the copper column 4, and ensuring that it is not easy to fall off.

[0031] The copper pillar 4 is relatively small in size and can quickly reach a high temperature during soldering, so that the copper pillar 4 is easily tinned at a high temperature and uses a small amount of tin, which is environmentally friendly.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the second end of the copper column 4 is provided with a blind hole 45 for connecting the connector 6. Preferably, the inner wall of the blind hole 45 is provided with a thread, and the blind hole 45 is threadedly connected to the connector 6.

[0033] In one embodiment, the connecting member 6 may be, but is not limited to, a screw or a bolt.

[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, along the direction from the first end to the second end of the copper column 4, the copper column 4 includes a first column 41, a second column 42, a third column 43 and a fourth column 44 connected in sequence, and the second column 42 is provided with a plurality of welding holes 46 distributed along its circumference, and the welding holes 46 penetrate the second column 42 along the axial direction of the second column 42.

[0035] In one embodiment, the diameters of the first cylinder 41, the second cylinder 42, the third cylinder 43 and the fourth cylinder 44 are all different, and the axial lengths of the first cylinder 41, the second cylinder 42, the third cylinder 43 and the fourth cylinder 44 are all different. The diameter of the first cylinder 41 is the smallest, the diameter of the second cylinder 42 is the largest, the diameter of the fourth cylinder 44 is larger than the diameter of the third cylinder 43, and the central axes of the first cylinder 41, the second cylinder 42, the third cylinder 43 and the fourth cylinder 44 are on the same straight line.

[0036] The number of the welding holes 46 can be determined according to the size of the second column 42 and the connection strength requirement between the copper column 4 and the copper column pad 7. In one embodiment, four welding holes 46 are provided, and the four welding holes 46 are arranged on the second column 42 at equal intervals.

[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, a first positioning hole is provided on the LED lamp board 2, and the first column 41 is located in the first positioning hole. By connecting the first column 41 and the first positioning hole, the position of the connecting component 3 is accurately positioned, and the copper column 4 can be prevented from shifting during use.
