Solution Overview

Problem

Existing light emitting device packages face challenges in maximizing luminous flux due to inefficient light reflection and absorption issues, particularly with the placement and orientation of light emitting devices and the Zener diode within the package.

Innovation Solution

A light emitting device package design featuring a body with a cavity, separated lead frames, and a Zener diode positioned closer to the electrode separating member, with the light emitting devices disposed parallel to the length direction and the Zener diode strategically located to minimize light absorption, along with varying inclination angles for improved reflection efficiency.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Device complexity

If the Zener diode is placed close to the light emitting devices for compact design, then device complexity is reduced, but light loss increases due to absorption by the Zener diode

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvearrangement complexityVSAvoidlight loss
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The electrode separating member is configured at a diagonal angle relative to the light emitting devices, creating a spatial separation in a different dimension. This diagonal arrangement allows the Zener diode to be positioned close to the light emitting devices while maintaining adequate separation distance through three-dimensional spatial optimization, thus reducing light absorption loss while keeping the overall device compact.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

2Ease of manufacture

If the inside surface of the body is made flat for simple manufacturing, then ease of manufacture is improved, but reflection efficiency deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemanufacturing simplicityVSAvoidreflection efficiency
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSLoss of energy

Solution Approach 1:

The inside surface of the body is configured with an asymmetric inclined shape rather than a flat surface. This asymmetric inclination optimizes the reflection path of light emitted by the light emitting devices, directing more light towards the desired output direction and improving overall reflection efficiency while maintaining manufacturing feasibility through mold design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #4Asymmetry

3Device complexity

If the electrode separating member is positioned parallel to the lead frames for simple structure, then device complexity is reduced, but luminous flux decreases due to inadequate light separation

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvestructural simplicityVSAvoidluminous flux
Core Design Contradiction:
Device complexityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The electrode separating member is positioned diagonally rather than parallel to the lead frames, utilizing three-dimensional spatial arrangement to achieve better light separation between the first and second light emitting devices. This diagonal positioning in a different dimensional orientation allows each light emitting device to emit light more effectively without interference, thereby increasing overall luminous flux while maintaining structural simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

AI summary

Embodiments relate to a light emitting device package having an improved luminous flux, and the light emitting device package includes a body including a cavity, a first lead frame and a second lead frame exposed on a bottom surface of the cavity and separate from each other by an electrode separating member, a first light emitting device disposed on the first lead frame, a second light emitting device disposed on the second lead frame, and a Zener diode disposed on the first lead frame or the second lead frame, and disposed more closely to the electrode separating member than to the first light emitting device and the second light emitting device. Here, the electrode separating member diagonally separate the first lead frame and the second lead frame along a width direction of the body.
