DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a deep ultraviolet LED germicidal bulb to solve the problems existing in the prior art, so as to enable deep ultraviolet energy to irradiate a longer distance and improve the utilization rate of the radiated deep ultraviolet energy.

[0039] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0040] like Figures 1-18 As shown, this embodiment provides a deep ultraviolet LED sterilization bulb 100, including a lamp housing 1, a conductive bracket 2, a core column 3 and a lamp holder 4.

The top surface of the upper shell 5 is provided with a plurality of light-emitting cups 6. Each light-emitting cup 6 is provided with a deep ultraviolet light-emitting diode chip 7. Each deep ultraviolet light-emitting diode chip 7 is connected by a conductive circuit 8. The lamp housing 1 is provided with a lamp housing tube 9 connected to the inner cavity of the lamp housing 1. The core column 3 is sealed in the lamp housing tube 9, and the lamp holder 4 is connected to the lamp housing tube 9. A power board 10 is provided in the lamp holder 4, and a connection point 11 insulated from the lamp holder 4 is provided on the top of the lamp holder 4. The two ends of the conductive circuit 8 are respectively connected to the positive and negative poles of the power board 10 through the wires 12 on the core column 3, and the lamp holder 4 and the connection point 11 are respectively connected to the two input lines 31 of the power board 10.

[0041] During use, the lamp holder 4 and the connection point 11 are energized to supply power to the power board 10, which converts the AC power into a constant current output. The power board 10 conducts the power to each deep ultraviolet light-emitting diode chip 7 through the stem 3 and the conductive line 8. The ultraviolet light energy emitted by the deep ultraviolet light-emitting diode chip 7 is concentrated by the light output cup 6, allowing the deep ultraviolet energy radiated by the germicidal bulb to irradiate a longer distance, thereby improving the germicidal bulb's utilization of the deep ultraviolet energy radiated by the deep ultraviolet light-emitting diode chip. The lamp housing 1 is a transparent quartz lamp housing, the lamp holder 4 is welded to the quartz lamp housing, and glue is applied to the mouth of the lamp holder 4. The lamp housing 1 and the lamp holder 4 are connected by pressing, and the lamp holder 4 and the lamp housing 1 are firmly fixed by temperature control.

[0042] In this embodiment, the bottom surface of the upper housing 5 is provided with a T-shaped slot 13, and the bottom of the T-shaped slot 13 is provided with a square slot 14. The conductive circuit 8 is installed in the square slot 14. The T-shaped slot 13 is installed with a lower housing 15 that matches the T-shaped slot 13.

Two connection holes 16 are symmetrically arranged on the inner bottom surface of the light output cup 6. A soldering pad 18 passes through the connection holes 16 and is soldered to the conductive circuit 8, thereby connecting the deep ultraviolet light-emitting diode chip 7 via the conductive circuit 8. The soldering pad 17 is made of copper metal and is molded into a semicircular structure through a mold. A layer of nickel-palladium-gold is electroplated on the soldering pad 17. The two soldering pads 17 form an independent, non-interconnected soldering pad structure within the light output cup 6.

[0043] In this embodiment, a metal terminal 19 is sleeved on both ends of the conductive bracket 2, and a rivet hole 20 is provided on the metal terminal 19.

The structure is simple and the installation is convenient, and it is convenient to power the conductive circuit 8 through the metal terminals 19 at both ends, so that the deep ultraviolet light-emitting diode chip 7 emits light.

The wire 12 includes two nickel wires 23 and electrode wires 24 respectively connected to the two nickel wires 23. The two nickel wires 23 are respectively welded to two metal terminals 19, and the two electrode wires 24 are respectively connected to the positive and negative poles of the power board 10. The nickel wires 23 and the metal terminals 19 are fixed by spot welding. The deep ultraviolet light-emitting diode chips 7 in each spiral are not blocked by the conductive support 2 above them, ensuring that the ultraviolet light emitted by them can be fully utilized.

[0045] In this embodiment, an exhaust pipe 25 is provided on the stem 3 and communicates with the interior of the lamp housing tube 9. Exhaust pipe 25 is used to extract air from the lamp housing 1 and lamp housing tube 9 and inject inert gas. After the inert gas is injected, exhaust pipe 25 is sealed. Using negative pressure and a gas filling device, the air in the lamp housing 1 and lamp housing tube 9 is first evacuated through exhaust pipe 25. Then, inert gas is injected into the exhaust pipe 25, and the exhaust pipe 25 is sealed by flame sintering and welding.

[0046] In this embodiment, a lock buckle 26 is provided on the top of the lamp holder 4. The outer ring of the lock buckle 26 is made of insulating material, and the inner ring is made of metal. The lock buckle 26 is connected to the lamp holder 4 through the insulating material of its outer ring, and the connection point 11 is located on the inner ring of the lock buckle 26. One input line 31 of the power supply board 10 is welded to the lamp holder 4, and the other input line 31 is welded to the lock buckle hole in the inner ring of the lock buckle 26.

[0047] In this embodiment, a sealing plate 27 is provided at the bottom end of the stem 3. The end of the lamp housing tube 9 is sealed and bonded to the sealing plate 27 via flame sintering. The conductive bracket 2, with the deep ultraviolet LED chip 7 mounted, passes through the lamp housing tube 9 and into the lamp housing 1. The sealing plate 27 contacts the lamp housing tube 9, which is made of quartz. Flame sintering bonds the lamp housing tube 9 and the sealing plate 27 together to form a single, integrated structure.

[0048] In this embodiment, the upper shell 5 and the lower shell 15 are both made of high-temperature resistant, UV-resistant and highly reflective resin materials, and are molded into an integral body using a suspended resin through a molding machine to ensure that the upper shell 5 and the lower shell 15 have a long service life.

[0049] In this embodiment, the two electrode wires 24 are respectively passed through an insulating tube 28 and then welded to the positive and negative electrodes of the power board 10 , using metal tin wire.

[0050] In this embodiment, the conductive circuit 8 includes multiple copper sheets 29 that match the square slots 14. The copper sheets 29 are formed using a die punch. Each adjacent end of two adjacent copper sheets 29 is provided with a solder post fixing hole 30. The two solder post fixing holes 30 correspond to two solder posts 18, respectively. The solder posts 18 and copper sheets 29 are connected by metal solder. The copper sheets 29 are electroplated with a layer of nickel-gold.

[0051] The present invention uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present invention. The above examples are only intended to help understand the method and core concept of the present invention.
