Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain uniform light emission and coloring of a light emitting plane with a simple process by a method wherein a printed circuit board on which light emitting diodes are mounted is so provided as to make the diodes face a plurality of windows of a package panel and light shielding walls between adjacent windows are inserted into the printed board. CONSTITUTION:Light shielding walls 1c are solidly molded with a package panel 1 and protrude inward. The light shielding walls 1c are so provided as to surround respective four sides of two center windows 1a among four windows 1a. The light shielding walls 1c are inserted into a printed board 2 through an LED lens 4 and shield the light between the adjacent windows 1c over the whole area from the main body of the package panel 1 to the printed board 2 without any gap. Therefore, a boundary line between a plurality of LED lamp cases is not visible on one light emitting plane. Further, as lights emitted from two LED chips are guided to one light emitting plane through the LED lens 4 only, the light emission and coloring on one light emitting plane can be uniform and excellent appearance can be obtained.

Note that if the light shielding wall 1c is simply brought into contact with the printed circuit board 2 without inserting it as in the above embodiment, a gap will inevitably be created between the light shielding wall IC and the printed circuit board 2.
The light emitted from the LED chip 3 leaks through the gap to the light emitting surface of the adjacent window 1a. However, if the LED display device is used in a particularly dimly lit room, the leaked light will be clearly visible. In particular, when the LED chip 3 is mounted on a gold-plated printed circuit board 2 by wire bonding, the surface of the printed circuit board 2 tends to reflect light due to the metal part. In order to completely block light, it is necessary to glue the light-shielding wall to the printed circuit board, or add other means such as inserting an elastic material such as rubber or sponge into the gap between the light-shielding wall and the printed circuit board. This increases the number of assembly steps and the number of parts, leading to higher costs.

Furthermore, in this embodiment, the LED chip 3 can be mounted on the printed circuit board 2 automatically and inexpensively by wire bonding as described above. Furthermore, spacers and the like that were required in the past are no longer necessary, and the overall number of parts is small and assembly can be performed in a simple process, reducing manufacturing costs.

In this embodiment, two LED chips 3 are used for one light emitting surface, but the number of LED chips 3 used is of course not limited to two, and may be an appropriate number depending on the area and shape of the light emitting surface. By selecting and arranging them, it is possible to obtain the desired uniform brightness of the light emitting surface. Moreover, it goes without saying that the number of light emitting surfaces is not limited to four.

Furthermore, if the LED lens 4 is configured to be completely transparent, the brightness of the LED chip 3 itself will be high when emitting light, and the brightness of the light emitting surface may change depending on the viewing angle. In contrast, by mixing a diffusion material into the resin of the LED lens 4, the LED
If the lens 4 is made semitransparent, the entire light emitting surface will emit light and color more uniformly, and the appearance will be more beautiful and good.

A light-shielding wall for blocking light is provided, and the light-shielding wall is constructed so as to protrude from the inner surface of the exterior panel, penetrate the lens, and be inserted into the printed circuit board. There is no light leakage to the light emitting surface of the window, and the light emitting surface emits light.
It has excellent effects such as uniform color development, a beautiful and good appearance, a simple structure, a small number of parts, and a simple assembly process, which reduces manufacturing costs.
