An LED integrated packaging light source module with a substrate featuring a 2:1 ratio of blue to red LED chips and a mixed colloid of yellow and green fluorescent powders, where bowl-shaped reflective cups enhance light emission and heat dissipation, using a substrate like aluminum or copper, and a hemispherical transparent silica gel for improved performance.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Use of energy by moving object

If a blue light LED chip is used to excite YAG fluorescent powder to obtain yellow light and mix with blue light to create white light, then luminous efficacy is improved, but color rendering property deteriorates at low color temperature

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveluminous efficacyVSAvoidcolor rendering property
Core Design Contradiction:
Use of energy by moving objectVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent combines multiple light sources (blue LED chips and red LED chips) and multiple fluorescent powders (YAG and red fluorescent powder) into a single integrated packaging module. This merging allows the system to simultaneously achieve high luminous efficacy from the blue-YAG combination and improved color rendering from the added red light component, resolving the contradiction between these two parameters.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent uses a composite fluorescent material system consisting of YAG fluorescent powder and red fluorescent powder together. This composite approach allows the material to simultaneously provide the high efficacy yellow light from YAG and the red light component needed for better color rendering, thus resolving the contradiction between luminous efficacy and color rendering property.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials

2Reliability

If red fluorescent powder is added to yellow fluorescent powder to increase red component, then color rendering index is improved, but luminous flux loss increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecolor rendering indexVSAvoidluminous flux loss
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces red LED chips as an intermediary light source that directly emits red light without requiring red fluorescent powder conversion. This intermediary approach provides the necessary red light component for improved color rendering while avoiding the significant luminous flux loss that occurs when using red fluorescent powder excited by blue light.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Reliability

If white-light LED and red-light LED are packaged together, then color rendering is improved, but heat affects red-light LED chip stability

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvecolor renderingVSAvoidred-light LED chip stability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSStability of the object's composition

Solution Approach 1:

The patent segments the LED chips into separate reflective cups, with blue LED chips in some cups and red LED chips in others. This spatial segmentation allows for independent thermal management of each chip type, protecting the red-light LED chips from the high heat generated by blue LED chips while maintaining the integrated packaging structure that provides good color rendering.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

4Use of energy by moving object

If blue LED chips generate high heat, then luminous efficacy is maintained, but red-light LED chip reliability deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveluminous efficacyVSAvoidred-light LED chip reliability
Core Design Contradiction:
Use of energy by moving objectVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the packaging into separate reflective cups, placing blue LED chips and red LED chips in different locations. This segmentation enables independent thermal management where blue LED chips can operate at high temperatures for maintaining luminous efficacy while red LED chips are protected from excessive heat, preserving their reliability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces heat dissipation structures (reflective cups with specific thermal properties) as intermediaries between the heat-generating blue LED chips and the heat-sensitive red LED chips. These intermediaries manage thermal transfer to maintain luminous efficacy from the blue chips while protecting the red chips from thermal damage.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
