[Background technology]

[0002] The application of lighting includes not only vehicle lighting but also backlights for displays and signs. Light-emitting elements, such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs), have advantages such as low power consumption, semi-permanent life, fast response speed, safety, and environmental friendliness compared to existing light sources such as fluorescent lamps and incandescent lamps. Such light-emitting elements are applied to various display devices and various lighting devices such as interior and exterior lights. Recently, lamps using light-emitting elements have been proposed as vehicle light sources. Compared to incandescent lamps, light-emitting elements have the advantage of low power consumption. However, since the emission angle of light emitted from the light-emitting elements is small, there is a demand for increasing the light-emitting area of ​​lamps using light-emitting elements when using light-emitting elements as vehicle lamps. Since light-emitting elements are small in size, the freedom of lamp design can be increased, and they are also economical due to their semi-permanent life.

[0016] 1 to 6, a lighting module or device 200 according to an embodiment of the invention may include a substrate 210, a resin layer 220, a wavelength conversion layer 250, and a plurality of light emitting elements 100. The lighting device 200 may include a second reflecting member 240 disposed on at least one or both of the resin layer 220 or the wavelength conversion layer 250. The lighting module 200 may include a first reflecting member 230 disposed below at least one or both of the resin layer 220 or the wavelength conversion layer 250. The first reflecting member 230 may be disposed above the substrate 210 and below the resin layer 220. The first and second reflecting members 230, 240 may reflect incident light.

[0017] The light emitted from the light emitting device 100 may be emitted in a planar form through at least one of the side surfaces of the resin layer 220 or through the wavelength conversion layer 250. The lighting module 200 has a line-shaped side, an emission surface, or a transparent surface arranged around the light emitting devices 100. The lighting module 200 has an emission surface having a certain height or thickness on one side facing the emission surfaces of the light emitting devices 100. The resin layer 220 may have at least one side and one surface (or top surface) exposed, and the wavelength conversion layer 250 may have at least one side and one surface (or top surface) and / or the other surface (or bottom surface) exposed. The lighting module or device 200 may include a first surface S1 and a second surface S2 arranged on opposite sides to each other, and a third surface S3 and a fourth surface S4 arranged on opposite sides to each other. The first and second surfaces S1 and S2 may extend long in a first direction, and the third and fourth surfaces S3 and S4 may extend long in a second direction. The first and second directions may be mutually perpendicular or may intersect at an acute or obtuse angle. The third direction may be a vertical direction or a thickness direction, and may be a direction perpendicular to the first and second directions. In the lighting module 200, at least a part of the first surface S1 and the second surface S2 may be arranged to face each other or to be offset from each other. At least a part of the third surface S3 and the fourth surface S4 may be arranged to face each other or to be offset from each other. The third surface S3 and the fourth surface S4 may be different sides from the first surface S1 and the second surface S2. The minimum distance between the first surface S1 and the second surface S2 may be smaller than the minimum distance between the third surface S3 and the fourth surface S4.

[0018] In the lighting module 200, the first surface S1 and the second surface S2 may have a long length in one direction or in a first direction X, and may be extended long in a bar shape or a line shape. The first surface S1 may be a surface facing the light emitting surface 111 of the light emitting device 100, or may be a surface from which light with the highest luminous intensity is emitted among the side surfaces of the resin layer 220 or the wavelength conversion layer 250. The first surface S1 may be a first emission surface facing the light emitting surface 111. Here, the light emitting device 100 may emit light from two or more surfaces or four or more surfaces depending on the type of element or light source. In the lighting module or device 200, the light emitting devices 100 may be arranged in a first direction or along an area adjacent to the second surface S2. The light emitting devices 100 may be arranged in at least one row. The imaginary line connecting the light emitting devices 100 arranged in at least one row may include a straight line or a curved line. As another example, the plurality of light-emitting elements may be arranged in two rows, and the light-emitting elements in the first and second rows may be arranged so as not to overlap in a column direction (e.g., Y direction) between the first surface S1 and the second surface S2. The plurality of light-emitting elements 100 arranged in the first direction X may face the first surface S1 or the first emission surface, respectively. Each light-emitting surface 111 of the plurality of light-emitting elements 100 may face the first emission surface or the first surface S1. Light emitted from the light-emitting element 100 is emitted through the first surface S1, and a portion of the light is emitted through the second surface S2, the third surface S3 and / or the fourth surface S4.

[0019] As shown in Figs. 2 to 5, the lighting module 200 may have a first length X1 in a first direction X longer than a second length Y1 in the second direction Y. The first length X1 may vary depending on the number of the light emitting elements 100 arranged, and may be, for example, 30 mm or more. The second length Y1 in the second direction may be 13 mm or more, 16 mm or more, or 20 mm or less. The second length Y1 of the lighting module 200 may provide an area where the emitted light of the light emitting element 100 is diffused and an area that protects the rear of the light emitting element 100. Here, when the minimum interval between the adjacent light emitting elements 100 is G1, the first length X1 may be greater than twice the interval G1, and the second length Y1 may be less than twice the interval G1. The interval G1 may be 10 mm or more, for example, in the range of 10 mm to 15 mm.

[0020] As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, the distance D1 between the light emitting surface (or one surface) of the light emitting device 100 and the first surface S1 and the distance D5 between the other surface of the light emitting device 100 and the second surface S2 may be different, for example, D1>D5. The distance D5 between the light emitting device 100 and the second surface S2 may be 3 mm or more, for example, in the range of 3 mm to 20 mm. If the distance D5 between the light emitting device 100 and the second surface S2 is smaller than the range, the area in which moisture can penetrate or a circuit pattern can be formed is small, and if it is larger than the range, the size of the lighting module 200 is large. In the lighting module 200, the first surface S1, the second surface S2, the third surface S3, and the fourth surface S4 are provided as planes perpendicular to the third direction Z, or at least one of them may include a curved surface or an inclined surface. The first surface S1, the second surface S2, the third surface S3, and the fourth surface S4 may have the same thickness or the same height in the third direction Z. For example, the first surface S1, which is the first emission surface, may be a vertical plane or may include a convex curved surface having a curvature. The resin layer 220 may include the second surface S2, the third surface S3, and the fourth surface S4, and the wavelength conversion layer 250 may include the first surface S1, the third surface S3, and the fourth surface S4.

[0021] The wavelength conversion layer 250 is disposed on the outer side of the resin layer 220. The first to fourth surfaces S1, S2, S3, and S4 may be the outermost surfaces of the resin layer 220 or the wavelength conversion layer 250. The wavelength conversion layer 250 may be disposed on a side surface of the first surface S1, or on a part or the entire side surface of the third surface S3 and / or the fourth surface S4. When the wavelength conversion layer 250 contacts the outer surface of the resin layer 220, the interface Sa between the wavelength conversion layer 250 and the resin layer 220 may be disposed along the region where the wavelength conversion layer 250 is formed. For example, the interface Sa may be disposed on the first surface S1, or on parts of the first surface S1, the third surface S3, and the fourth surface S4. That is, the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be disposed on the surfaces corresponding to the first, third, and fourth surfaces S1, S3, and S4 of the resin layer 220. The resin layer 220 may be disposed to surround an element disposed on the substrate 210, for example, one or more light emitting devices 100. The resin layer 220 may seal the light emitting device 100. The resin layer 220 may contact the light emitting device 100. The light emitting devices 100 are arranged in a first direction, with at least three or more light emitting devices 100 disposed in the resin layer 220. The light emitting devices 100 are disposed between the substrate 210 and the second reflecting member 240. The resin layer 220 may be a light-transmitting material such as silicon or epoxy. The resin layer 220 may include a glass material as another material. The resin layer 220 may be a layer without impurities or may include impurities such as a diffusing agent. The first reflecting member 230 is disposed between the resin layer 220 and the substrate 210. The first reflecting member 230 may not be formed, and a reflective material may be formed on the upper surface of the substrate 210.

[0022] The substrate 210 includes a printed circuit board (PCB), and may include, for example, a resin-based printed circuit board (PCB), a metal core PCB, a flexible PCB, a ceramic PCB, or an FR-4 substrate. The substrate 210 may be made of a flexible or rigid material. A circuit pattern is disposed on an upper portion of the substrate 210. The circuit pattern of the substrate 210 may include a plurality of pads in an area corresponding to the light emitting device 100. The plurality of light emitting devices 100 are electrically connected to the substrate 210. The plurality of light emitting devices 100 include a bonding part disposed on a lower portion thereof, and the bonding part is electrically connected to a pad of the substrate 210. The plurality of light emitting devices 100 may be connected in series by the circuit pattern of the substrate 210. As another example, the plurality of light emitting devices 100 may be connected in parallel by the circuit pattern of the substrate 210, or a group of two or more light emitting devices connected in series may be connected in parallel. The rear region of the substrate 210 is an opposite region of the light emitting region with respect to the light emitting device 100, and has a circuit pattern for connecting the light emitting devices 100 disposed therein. The width of the rear region varies depending on the number of the light emitting devices 100 or the connection method of the light emitting devices 100. The width of the rear region is the distance D5 between the light emitting device 100 and the second surface S2, and may be 3 mm or more. This makes it possible to form a circuit pattern for connecting a plurality of light emitting devices 100 while suppressing the penetration of moisture from the rear of the light emitting device 100.

[0023] The light emitting device 100 may include a package in which an element having a light emitting chip or an LED chip is packaged. The light emitting chip may emit at least one of blue, red, green, and ultraviolet (UV). The light emitting device 100 may emit at least one of white, blue, red, and green. The light emitting device 100 emits light in a lateral direction and has a bottom disposed on the substrate 210. For example, the light emitting device 100 may be a side view type package or a package having a light emitting surface 111 on one side. As another example, the light emitting device 100 may be an LED chip, and one side of the LED chip may be open and a reflective member may be disposed on the other side. Alternatively, an LED chip may be disposed on the substrate 210, and light may be emitted through the top and side surfaces of the LED chip. The light emitting surface 111 of the light emitting device 100 may be disposed on a surface adjacent to the substrate 210, for example, on a side surface adjacent to the top surface of the substrate 210. The light emitting surface 111 is disposed on a side between the bottom and top of the light emitting element 100, and emits light in the second direction Y. The light emitting surface 111 of the light emitting element 100 may be adjacent to the first reflecting member 230 and perpendicular to the top of the substrate 210 and the top of the first reflecting member 230. The height of the light emitting element 100 may range from 1 mm to 2 mm, for example, from 1.2 mm to 1.8 mm. As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4, the distance G1 between the light emitting elements 100 may be 10 mm or more, for example, from 10 mm to 15 mm. In addition, the distance G2 between the outermost light emitting element 100 and the third or fourth side S3, S4 of the resin layer 220 may be smaller than the distance G1, and may be 10 mm or less. Here, the distance D1 may be 90% or more of the distance G1, for example, in the range of 90% to 120%, and the distance G1 may be variable depending on the distance D1.

[0024] The length of the light emitting device 100 in the first direction X may be greater than the height of the light emitting device 100, for example, 1.5 times or more of the height of the light emitting device 100. Since the light emitting device 100 has a small height and a long length in the first direction X, it can provide a wide light output angle in the first direction X, which is a left-right direction based on the center of the light emitting device 100. Here, the light output angle of the light emitting device 100 in the first direction X may be greater than the light output angle in the third direction Z, which is an up-down direction. The light output angle of the light emitting device 100 in the second direction Y may range from 110 degrees to 160 degrees. Here, as shown in FIG. 3, the thickness Za of the substrate 210 may be smaller than the height of the light emitting device 100. The height of the light emitting device 100 may be twice or more the thickness Za of the substrate 210, for example, in the range of 2 times to 4 times. Since the thickness Za of the substrate 210 is provided thin, the lighting module 200 is provided as a flexible plate.

[0025] The resin layer 220 may cover the light emitting device 100 on the substrate 210. The second reflective member 240 may cover an upper surface of the resin layer 220. The resin layer 220 may contact an upper surface and a side surface of the light emitting device 100. The resin layer 220 may contact an upper surface of the first reflective member 230. A part of the resin layer 220 may contact the substrate 210 through a hole 232 of the first reflective member 230. The resin layer 220 may contact a light emitting surface 111 of the light emitting device 100. The first surface S1, the second surface S2, the third surface S3, and the fourth surface S4 of the resin layer 220 may be side surfaces between the first and second reflective members 230 and 240. The upper surface area of ​​the resin layer 220 may be the same as the upper surface area of ​​the substrate 210, the upper surface area of ​​the first reflective member 230, or the lower surface area of ​​the second reflective member 240. The length of the resin layer 220 in the first direction may be the same as the length of the substrate 210, the length of the first reflecting member 230, and / or the length of the second reflecting member 240. The maximum width Y1 of the resin layer 220 in the second direction may be the same as the maximum width of the substrate 210, the maximum width of the first reflecting member 230, and / or the maximum width of the second reflecting member 240. As another example, the upper surface area of ​​the resin layer 220 may be smaller than the upper surface area of ​​the substrate 210. In this structure, an edge of the upper surface of the substrate 210 may protrude outward from an edge of the lower surface of the resin layer 220. The resin layer 220 is disposed between the first and second reflecting members 230 and 240. A part of the resin layer 220 is disposed between the substrate 210 and the second reflecting member 240. The upper surface of the first reflecting member 230 and the lower surface of the second reflecting member 240 may face the lower surface of the resin layer 220 at the upper surface. An upper surface of the first reflective member 230 and a lower surface of the second reflective member 240 may have the same area. Thus, the resin layer 220 may diffuse the light emitted from the light emitting device 100 and the light reflected by the first and second reflective members 230 and 240 and guide the light in a lateral direction.

[0026] The resin layer 220 may be formed with a thickness Zb or height greater than the height of the light emitting device 100. Thus, the resin layer 220 can protect the upper part of the light emitting device 100 and suppress the penetration of moisture. The light emitting device 100 can protect the light emitting device 100 because the substrate 210 is disposed at the lower part and the resin layer 220 is disposed at the upper part. Therefore, the distance between the upper surface of the resin layer 220 and the light emitting device 100 may be 0.5 mm or less, for example, in the range of 0.2 mm to 0.5 mm. The thickness Zb of the resin layer 220 is the distance between the first and second reflecting members 230 and 240, and the distance (for example, Zb) between the first and second reflecting members 230 and 240 may be smaller than the distance between the first surface S1 and the second surface S2. For example, the distance between the first surface S1 and the second surface S2 may include a maximum distance or a minimum distance. By arranging the distance between the first and second reflecting members 230, 240 to be smaller than the width Y1 or the minimum width of the lighting module 200 in the second direction, a line-shaped surface light can be provided, and the luminous intensity can be improved and hot spots can be prevented. In addition, a lighting module that is flexible in the third direction can be provided. The thickness Zb of the resin layer 220 may be equal to or less than twice the thickness of the light emitting element 100, for example, more than 1 time and equal to or less than 2 times. The thickness Zb of the resin layer 220 may be, for example, in the range of 1.5 mm to 1.9 mm or 1.5 mm to 1.6 mm. The thickness Zb of the resin layer 220 may be equal to or less than 0.8 times the thickness Z1 of the lighting module 200, for example, in the range of 0.4 times to 0.8 times the thickness Z1 of the lighting module 200. Since the resin layer 220 is arranged with a difference of 1.2 mm or less from the thickness Z1 of the lighting module 200, a decrease in the light efficiency of the lighting module 200 can be prevented and the flexibility characteristics can be enhanced. The resin layer 220 may include at least one of silicone, silicone molding compound (SMC), epoxy, or epoxy molding compound (EMC). The resin layer 220 may include a UV (ultra violet) curable resin or a thermosetting resin material, and may selectively include, for example, PC, OPS, PMMA, PVC, etc.For example, the resin layer 220 may be mainly made of a resin material containing urethane acrylate oligomer as a main ingredient. The resin layer 220 may include beads (not shown), which may diffuse and reflect incident light to increase the amount of light. The resin layer 220 may include a phosphor. The phosphor may have a lower content than the phosphors added to other resin layers, and may include at least one of yellow, green, blue, and red phosphors.

[0027] The first reflective member 230 may reflect light emitted from the light emitting device 100. The first reflective member 230 is formed on an upper surface of the substrate 210. The first reflective member 230 may be formed as an upper layer of the substrate 210 or as a separate layer. The first reflective member 230 may be attached to the upper surface of the substrate 210 with an adhesive. The resin layer 220 may be attached to the upper surface of the first reflective member 230. The first reflective member 230 has a plurality of holes 232 in an area corresponding to a lower surface of the light emitting device 100, and the light emitting device 100 is connected to the substrate 210 through the holes 232. A portion of the resin layer 220 may contact the substrate 210 through the holes 232. The holes 232 may be an area where the light emitting device 100 is bonded to the substrate 210. The first reflective member 230 may be formed in a single layer or a multi-layer structure. The first reflecting member 230 may include a material that reflects light, for example, a metal or a non-metallic material. If the first reflecting member 230 is a metal, it may include a metal layer such as stainless steel, aluminum (Al), or silver (Ag), and if the first reflecting member 230 is a non-metallic material, it may include a white resin material, a material in which a metal oxide and / or air is filled in a resin, or a plastic material. The first reflecting member 230 may include a white resin material or a polyester (PET) material. The first reflecting member 230 may include at least one of a low reflection film, a high reflection film, a diffuse reflection film, or a regular reflection film. The first reflecting member 230 may be provided as a regular reflection film for reflecting incident light to the first surface S1, for example.

[0028] One end of the first reflecting member 230 may be disposed on the same plane as the first surface S1. The other end of the first reflecting member 230 may be disposed on the same plane as the second surface S2. As another example, one end and the other end of the first reflecting member 230 may be spaced apart from the first surface S1 and the second surface S2 and may contact the resin layer 220. That is, the outside of the first reflecting member 230 may be covered with the resin layer 220 to prevent moisture from penetrating. The thickness Zc of the first reflecting member 230 may be smaller than the thickness Za of the substrate 210. The thickness Zc of the first reflecting member 230 is disposed to be 0.3 times or more the thickness Za of the substrate 210, so that the transmission loss of the incident light can be reduced. The thickness Zc of the first reflecting member 230 may be in the range of 0.1 mm to 0.3 mm. If the thickness Zc is smaller than the range, a light transmission loss occurs, and if the thickness Zc is thicker than the range, the thickness Z1 of the lighting module 200 increases. The thickness Zd of the second reflecting member 240 may be smaller than the thickness Za of the substrate 210. The thickness Zd of the second reflecting member 240 is disposed to be 0.3 times or more the thickness Za of the substrate 210, and the transmission loss of the incident light can be reduced. The thickness Zd of the second reflecting member 240 may be in the range of 0.1 mm to 0.3 mm, and if it is smaller than the range, the light transmission loss occurs, and if it is thicker than the range, the thickness Z1 of the lighting module 200 increases. The second reflecting member 240 is disposed on the entire area of ​​the upper surface of the resin layer 220, and the light loss can be reduced. The second reflecting member 240 may be made of the same material as the first reflecting member 230. The second reflecting member 240 may have a material with a higher light reflectance or a thicker thickness than the material of the first reflecting member 230 in order to reflect light and reduce the light transmission loss. The second reflecting member 240 may have the same thickness as or a thicker thickness than the first reflecting member 230. For example, the first and second reflecting members 230 and 240 may be provided with the same material and the same thickness. The second reflecting member 240 may be formed with a single layer or a multi-layer structure. The second reflecting member 240 may include a material that reflects light, such as a metal or a non-metal material.When the second reflective member 240 is a metal, it may include a metal layer such as stainless steel, aluminum (Al), or silver (Ag). When the second reflective member 240 is a non-metallic material, it may include a white resin material, a material in which a metal oxide and / or air is filled in a resin, or a plastic material. The second reflective member 240 may include a white resin material or a polyester (PET) material. The second reflective member 240 may include at least one of a low reflection film, a high reflection film, a diffuse reflection film, or a regular reflection film. The second reflective member 240 may be provided as a regular reflection film so that the incident light travels toward the first surface S1. Here, the first surface S1 has a light extraction structure such as a concave-convex structure. This can improve the extraction efficiency of the light emitted through the resin layer 220. A first overlapping region horizontally overlapping the light emitting device 100 on the first surface S1 and a second overlapping region horizontally overlapping the region between the light emitting devices may be disposed on the same plane. As another example, the second overlapping region may be recessed from the first overlapping region in a second surface direction, or the first overlapping region may be protruded from the second overlapping region. The first surface S1 may be treated as a haze surface to diffuse light. The haze surface may be treated as a rough surface compared to the other surface of the resin layer 220 to diffuse the emitted light. The lighting module 200 may provide a thickness Z1 in a third direction in a line shape, and thus may provide a flexible line-shaped surface light. The thickness Z1 of the lighting module 200 may be 3 mm or less. That is, the lighting module 200 may emit a line-shaped surface light of 3 mm or less from at least one side. As another example, the lighting module 200 may be disposed to be greater than 2 mm and less than 6 mm. In this case, the thickness of the lighting module 200 increases, but the thickness of the resin layer 220 may be made thicker to increase the line width and increase the light distribution area.

[0029] Referring to FIG. 3, when considering the thickness of each component of the lighting module 200, if the thickness of the substrate 210 is Za, the thickness of the resin layer 220 is Zb, the thickness of the first reflecting member 230 is Zc, and the thickness of the second reflecting member 240 is Zd, the relationship of Zb>Za>Zd≧Zc may be satisfied. The distance between the lower surface of the substrate 210 and the upper surface of the second reflecting member 240 is the thickness Z1 of the lighting module 200. The thickness Zb may have a ratio of 0.4 to 0.8 of Z1, the thickness Za may have a ratio of 0.14 to 0.18 of Z1, and the thickness Zd or Zc may have a ratio of 0.08 to 0.12 of Z1. The Zb may have a ratio of 3.5 to 4 of Za. The Zb may have a ratio of 5.8 to 6.4 of Zc or Zd. The thickness Zb of the resin layer 220 is arranged to be thicker than the thickness Za of the substrate 210, so that the light emitting device 100 can be protected, light can be diffused and guided, and flexibility characteristics can be enhanced. In addition, since a line-shaped first emission surface having the thickness Zb or height of the resin layer 220 is provided, a line emission surface can be provided. The distance D1 between the light emitting surface 111 of the light emitting device 100 and the first surface S1 can be 5 times or more, for example, 5 to 10 times, the thickness Zb or height of the resin layer 220. The distance D1 can be 10 mm or more, for example, 10 to 15 mm. If the distance D1 from the light emitting surface 111 of the light emitting device 100 to the first emission surface or the first surface is less than 5 times the thickness Zb of the resin layer 220, the surface light source distribution becomes non-uniform, and if it exceeds 10 times, the improvement efficiency of the surface light source distribution becomes small compared to the increase in the module size.

[0030] The wavelength conversion layer 250 is disposed on the outer surface of the resin layer 220 on the emission side. The emission surface of the wavelength conversion layer 250 is disposed as a first surface S1. The wavelength conversion layer 250 may face the light emitting surfaces 111 of the light emitting elements 100. The vertical thickness of the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be equal to or greater than the thickness Zb of the resin layer 220. The vertical thickness of the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be the sum of the thickness Zb of the resin layer 220 and any one of the thicknesses Za and Zd of the first and second reflecting members 230 and 240. That is, the vertical thickness of the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be equal to or less than the distance between the upper surface of the substrate 210 and the second reflecting member 240, or may be equal to or greater than the distance between the upper surface and the lower surface of the resin layer 220. The inner surface of the wavelength conversion layer 250 may contact the resin layer 220, and the lower surface may contact at least one or both of the substrate 210 and the first reflecting member 230. The upper surface of the wavelength conversion layer 250 may contact the second reflecting member 240. Thus, the wavelength conversion layer 250 may cover the outer surface (i.e., Sa) of the resin layer 220 to block moisture penetrating from the outside. Here, the outer surface or the first surface S1 of the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be flush with the side surface of the substrate 210 and / or the second reflecting member 240. The wavelength conversion layer 250 may be provided with a width D3 of 0.7 mm or less in the horizontal second direction Y, for example, in the range of 0.3 mm to 0.7 mm or 0.3 mm to 0.5 mm. The width D3 may be smaller than the length Y1 of the resin layer 220 in the second direction, for example, 1 / 30 or less of D2. The wavelength conversion layer 250 may include a wavelength conversion means therein. The wavelength conversion means may include phosphors and / or quantum dots. The phosphors or quantum dots may emit at least one or more of amber, yellow, green, red, or blue light. The content of the wavelength conversion means added to the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be 13 wt% or more or may be in the range of 13 wt% to 60 wt% of the weight of the wavelength conversion layer 250. The content of the phosphor in the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be changed according to the emitted light intensity and wavelength conversion efficiency.The light emitted through the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be a mixture of a first light emitted from the light emitting element 100 and a second light wavelength-converted in the wavelength conversion layer 250. The mixed light of the first light and the second light may be red or white. The wavelength conversion layer 250 may include a diffusing agent and / or ink particles. The ink particles may include at least one of a metal ink, a UV ink, and a hardening ink. The size of the ink particles may be smaller than the size of the phosphor. The surface color of the ink particles may be any one of green, red, yellow, and blue. The type of the ink particles may be selected from PVC (Poly vinyl chloride) ink, PC (Polycarbonate) ink, ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene copolymer) ink, UV resin ink, epoxy ink, silicon ink, PP (polypropylene) ink, water-based ink, plastic ink, PMMA (poly methyl methacrylate) ink, and PS (Polystyrene) ink. Here, the width or diameter of the ink particles may be 5 μm or less, for example, in the range of 0.05 μm to 1 μm. At least one of the ink particles may be smaller than the wavelength of light. The material of the ink particles may include at least one color of red, green, yellow, and blue. For example, the phosphor emits red wavelength light, and the ink particles include red color. Here, when ink particles and a wavelength conversion means are added together in the wavelength conversion layer 250, the ink particles can reduce the transmittance of incident light, and the external color can be provided as the same color as the ink color in a power off mode. The content of the wavelength conversion means in the wavelength conversion layer 250 can be reduced to 20 wt % or less by the ink particles.

[0031] In terms of a manufacturing process of the lighting module, for example, the light emitting device 100 is mounted on the substrate 210, and the first reflective member 230 is attached. Thereafter, the resin layer 220 may be formed on the substrate 210, and the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be formed thereon. After the resin layer 220 and the wavelength conversion layer 250 are formed, the second reflective member 240 may be attached. As another example, the resin layer 220 may be formed, the second reflective member 240 may be attached, and then the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be formed on one side of the resin layer 220.

[0032] Referring to FIG. 5, the lighting module or device may include a resin layer 220, a wavelength conversion layer 250, and a colored ink layer 252 on the substrate 210. The wavelength conversion layer 250 may include a wavelength conversion means, and the colored ink layer 252 may include ink particles. The ink particles may reduce the transmittance of light without converting the wavelength of light. In addition, the colored ink layer 252 may reduce the transmittance of light to prevent and remove hot spots that occur on the light-emitting surface 111 of the light-emitting element 100, which can be seen from the outside. The colored ink layer 252 provides an external color with an ink color when the power is off, and may transmit light wavelength-converted by the wavelength conversion means and light emitted from the light-emitting element 100 when the power is on. The colored ink layer 252 may face the light-emitting surface 111 of the plurality of light-emitting elements 100. The colored ink layer 252 may have a first surface S1 disposed on the outside, and an outer surface of the wavelength conversion layer 250 may contact an inner surface of the colored ink layer 252. The colored ink layer 252 may be disposed on the first surface S1 or on a part or the whole of the first surface S1 and the third and fourth surfaces S3 and S4. As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 5, the wavelength conversion layer 250 or the colored ink layer 252 disposed on the outermost side may further increase the light emitting area. The height or thickness of the colored ink layer 252 in the vertical third direction Z may be the same as the height or thickness of the wavelength conversion layer 250. The height or thickness of the colored ink layer 252 in the vertical direction Z may be the same as or greater than the height or thickness of the resin layer 220. The width of the colored ink layer 252 in the horizontal second direction Y may be smaller than the width of the wavelength conversion layer 250. The inner surface of the colored ink layer 252 may contact the wavelength conversion layer 250, and the lower surface may contact at least one or both of the substrate 210 and the first reflecting member 230. The upper surface of the colored ink layer 252 may be in contact with the second reflective member 240. Thus, the colored ink layer 252 may cover the outer surface of the wavelength conversion layer 250 to reduce the difference between the color of the light emitted in the power on or off mode and the color of the non-emitting surface.Here, the outer surface or first surface S1 of the colored ink layer 252 may be flush with the side surfaces of the substrate 210 and / or the second reflecting member 240. When the wavelength conversion layer 250 is disposed on the emission side of the light emitting device 100 as shown in FIG. 3 and FIG. 6, the outer surface, i.e., the first surface S1 of the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be flush with the side surfaces of the substrate 210 and / or the second reflecting member 240. As shown in FIG. 6, the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be disposed between the first and second reflecting members 230, 240 or may contact the first and second reflecting members 230, 240. Here, the second reflecting member 240 may expose a part of the resin layer 220. The second reflecting member 240 may expose a part of the upper surface of the resin layer 220. As shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, the upper surface of the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be disposed outside the second reflecting member 240 or may be exposed from the second reflecting member 240. An inner surface of the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be in contact with an outer surface of the resin layer 220. An upper portion of the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be in contact with a side surface of the second reflective member 240 and may be at the same height as or lower than an upper surface of the second reflective member 240. That is, the wavelength conversion layer 250 may further increase the light emitting area.

[0033] As shown in FIG. 9, the resin layer 220 may contact the periphery of the upper surface of the substrate 210. The resin layer 220 may contact a side surface of the first reflecting member 230. The wavelength conversion layer 250 may contact at least one of a side surface of the substrate 210, a side surface of the resin layer 220, and a side surface of the second reflecting member 240 on the emission side. The wavelength conversion layer 250 may be disposed on the outer side of the substrate 210 and / or the second reflecting member 240 to cover the emission side area of ​​the lighting module 200. The vertical height or thickness of the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be the same as the thickness of the lighting module 200. The wavelength conversion layer 250 may contact any one side surface of the lighting module 200 to suppress the penetration of moisture and suppress the problem of the second reflecting member 240 lifting up. As shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 9, the wavelength conversion layer 250 may include the wavelength conversion means disclosed above, or may include wavelength conversion means and ink particles.

[0034] As shown in FIG. 10, the resin layer 220 may contact the periphery of the upper surface of the substrate 210. The resin layer 220 may contact the side of the first reflecting member 230. The wavelength conversion layer 250 may contact at least one of the side of the substrate 210, the side of the resin layer 220, and the side of the second reflecting member 240 at the emission side. The wavelength conversion layer 250 may cover the side of the substrate 210 and / or the second reflecting member 240. The colored ink layer 252 may be disposed outside the wavelength conversion layer 250 and cover the emission side area of ​​the lighting module 200. The vertical height or thickness of the wavelength conversion layer 250 and the colored ink layer 252 may be the same as the thickness of the lighting module 200. As shown in FIG. 11, the colored ink layer 252 may be disposed on the outer surface of the wavelength conversion layer 250 and may include extensions Ia and Ib extended to the lower and upper surfaces. The first extension Ia of the colored ink layer 252 may extend to the lower surface of the wavelength conversion layer 250 and contact the substrate 210. The second extension Ib of the colored ink layer 252 may extend to the upper surface of the wavelength conversion layer 250 and contact the first reflecting member 240. As shown in FIG. 12, the colored ink layer 252 may be disposed on the outer surface of the wavelength conversion layer 250 and may extend to and contact the side surface of the substrate 210 and / or the side surface of the second reflecting member 240. Here, the wavelength conversion layer 250 may be disposed between the substrate 210 and the second reflecting member 240 and may be smaller than the vertical height of the colored ink layer 252. As shown in FIGS. 10 to 12, the wavelength conversion layer 250 may include the wavelength conversion means disclosed above, and the colored ink layer 252 may include the ink particles disclosed above. 13 , the inside of the wavelength conversion layer 250 is disposed between the substrate 210 and the second reflecting member 240 or protrudes toward the light emitting element 100, with the upper portion Pb disposed outside the second reflecting member 240 and the lower portion Pa disposed outside the substrate 210. Such a wavelength conversion layer 250 may be in contact with the outer surface of the resin layer 220, the edges and side surfaces of the lower surface of the second reflecting member 240, and the edges and side surfaces of the lower surface of the substrate 210.

[0035] The material of the wavelength conversion layer 250 and / or the colored ink layer 252 includes a transparent material and may be selectively formed from the material of the resin layer 220 disclosed above. The material of the wavelength conversion layer 250 and / or the colored ink layer 252 may be the same as the resin layer 220 or at least one of them may be different. In the lighting module disclosed above, the second reflecting member 240 may be removed when another mechanism is disposed or a housing is disposed. The second reflecting member 240 may be formed from a light-shielding layer or a light-shielding plate.

[0036] Here, the embodiment of the invention has been described with reference to an example in which the wavelength conversion layer 250 is disposed in the light emission direction or horizontal direction in the resin layer 220, or the wavelength conversion layer 250 and the colored ink layer 252 are disposed. As another example, at least one or more layers made of a resin material may be stacked in the vertical direction in the resin layer 220. The one or more layers may be a single layer or a patterned layer having a pattern of a predetermined shape. The single layer or the patterned layer is disposed on one surface or / and the other surface of the resin layer 220. For example, the single layer or the patterned layer may be disposed on a part of the upper surface and / or a part of the lower surface of the resin layer 220. Such a structure will be described in detail in a second embodiment.

[0037] FIG. 14 is a plan view showing a lighting module according to the second embodiment, FIGS. 15 to 20 are modified examples of the side cross-sectional view of the lighting module of FIG. 14, and FIGS. 21 to 25 are other examples of the side cross-sectional view of the lighting module of FIG. 1, FIG. 7 or FIG. 14.

[0038] 14 and 15, the lighting module may include a substrate 210, a resin layer 220, a wavelength conversion layer 250, a light emitting element 100, at least one reflective member 230, 240, and a first pattern layer 255. The first pattern layer 255 may include a transparent resin material, and the resin material may be selectively formed from the material of the resin layer 220. The first pattern layer 255 may include a wavelength conversion means therein. Or, the first pattern layer 255 may include ink particles and a wavelength conversion means therein.

[0039] The first pattern layer 255 may be disposed to have a length equal to or greater than the length of the resin layer 220 in the first direction X. The first pattern layer 255 may have a length D6 in the second direction Y that is smaller than the length of the resin layer 220, for example, may be equal to or smaller than the distance D1 between the light emitting device 100 and the first surface S1. The length D6 of the first pattern layer 255 in the second direction may be 2 mm or more, for example, in the range of 2 mm to 10 mm. When a wavelength conversion means is added to the first pattern layer 255, the content of the wavelength conversion means may be smaller than the content of the wavelength conversion means added to the wavelength conversion layer 250. When a wavelength conversion means is added to the first pattern layer 255 and the wavelength conversion layer 250, the content of the wavelength conversion means may be, for example, a phosphor and / or quantum dots that emit the same color wavelength, or may be a material that emits different color wavelengths. The first pattern layer 255 may transmit a part of the light traveling in the direction of the first surface S1 through the resin layer 220 and emit it as wavelength-converted light. The first pattern layer 255 is disposed on a first region of the resin layer 220, and therefore the second reflective member 240 is disposed on a second region of the resin layer 220. The first pattern layer 255 may overlap the resin layer 220, the first reflective member 230, and the substrate 210 in a vertical direction. The first pattern layer 255 may not overlap the light emitting device 100 in a vertical direction. The first pattern layer 255 may contact an upper surface of the resin layer 220. The first pattern layer 255 may contact a side of the second reflective member 240. The first pattern layer 255 may contact an upper surface of the wavelength conversion layer 250 or may overlap the wavelength conversion layer 250 in a vertical direction. The thickness of the first pattern layer 255 may be equal to or smaller than the thickness of the second reflective member 240. When the light emitted through the first surface S1 is a main light, the light emitted through the first pattern layer 255 may be a sub-light.

[0040] Here, the second reflective member 240 is extended to a length covering the upper surface of the light emitting device 100, and a distance D8 between one end of the second reflective member 240 and a line perpendicular to the light emitting surface 111 may be 3 mm or more, for example, in a range of 3 mm to 6 mm. Since the front end of the second reflective member 240 covers the upper part of the light emitting device 100, it is possible to reduce an area where hot spots occur on a peripheral area adjacent to the light emitting device 100. In FIG. 14 and FIG. 15, the length D6 of the first pattern layer 255 in the second direction Y may be in a range of 1 to 2 times the distance D8, for example, 5 mm or more or in a range of 5 mm to 10 mm. Since the first pattern layer 255 is separated from a line perpendicular to the light emitting surface 111 by the distance D8, it is possible to guide and emit the incident surface light, and hot spots are suppressed. Here, the area of ​​the first region where the second reflective member 240 is disposed on the upper surface of the resin layer 220 may be larger or smaller than the area of ​​the second region where the first pattern layer 255 is disposed, for example, the area of ​​the second region may be in the range of 0.6 to 1.3 times the area of ​​the first region.
