DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The present disclosure will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It is understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the claimed invention and are not intended to limit the claimed invention.


The First Embodiment

In the first embodiment, the LED filament assembly 100 includes a frame 1, a first electrode 21 disposed on a first end of the frame, and a second electrode 22 disposed on a second end of the frame 1. The LED filament assembly 100 also includes a first group of LED chips 31 capable of emitting a first color, a second group of LED chips 32 capable of emitting a second color different from the first color, and a third group of LED chips 33 capable of emitting a third color different from the first color and the second color. The first group of LED chips 31 is disposed on the frame along a longitudinal axis 9, connected in series, and electrically connected to the first electrode 21 and the second electrode 22. Similarly, the second group of LED chips 32 is also disposed on the frame 1 along the longitudinal axis 9, connected in series, and electrically connected to the first electrode 21 and the second electrode 22. And the third group of LED chips 33 is also disposed on the frame 1 along the longitudinal axis 9, connected in series, and electrically connected to the first electrode 21 and the second electrode 22.


In this embodiment, the first group of LED chips 31 is capable of emitting red light, the second group of LED chips 32 is capable of emitting green light, and the third group of LED chips 33 is capable of emitting blue light. The first group, the second group, and the third group of LED chips are physically arranged along the strips 2, and physically arranged in parallel to each other. Each of the first group, the second group, and the third group of LED chips may be respectively enabled via the first electrode 21 and the second electrode 22. So the LED filament assembly 100 may generate light of different colors or color temperatures by enabling to one or a combination of the first group, the second group, and the third group of LED chips.


In this embodiment, each of the first group, the second group, and the third group of LED chips may be respectively provided with different voltages via the first electrode 21 and the second electrode 22 to generate light with different luminance. For example, the first group of LED chips 31 may be provided with a first voltage so as to generate light with a first luminance. The second group of LED chips 32 may be provided with a second voltage so as to generate light with a second luminance. The third group of LED chips 33 may be provided with a third voltage so as to generate light with a third luminance. With such arrangement, the LED filament 100 may generate light of different colors, different color temperatures, and different luminance.


In this embodiment, each of the strips 2 is arranged parallel to each other on the frame 1. The light sources (i.e., the LED chips) are arranged in a matrix on the frame 1. For example, the first group of LED chips 31 are arranged along a longitudinal axis 9 of the frame 1. Each of the first group of LED chips 31 is spaced apart from each other by a fixed distance. Along a lateral axis (vertical to the longitudinal axis 9) of the frame 1, each of the first group of LED chips 31, the second group of LED chips 32, and the third group of LED chips 33 is also arranged in parallel, and are spaced apart from each other by a fixed distance. In this way, the first color, the second color, and the third color uniformly constitute the light beams emitted from the LED filament assembly 100, and the brightness of the light beams may be configured accordingly.


Referring to FIG. 2, the first group of LED chips 31, the second group of LED chips 32, and the third group of LED chips 33 are LED flip-chips. Each of the LED flip-chips is configured with two solder pads 11 on the frame 1. The solder pads 11 are arranged in parallel along the longitudinal axis 9 of the frame 1. Specifically, the first group of LED chips 31 is realized by red LED flip-chips, the second group of LED chips 32 is realized by green LED flip-chips, the third group of LED chips 33 is realized by blue LED flip-chips.


In some embodiments, the group of LED chips for emitting red light (i.e., the red light source) may be realized by adopting blue LED flip-chips with red phosphor because the blue light may excite the red phosphor to generate the red light. In some embodiments, the group of LED chips for emitting green light (i.e., the green light source) may be realized by adopting blue LED flip-chips with green phosphors because the blue light may excite the green phosphors to generate the green light.


It is noted that in the embodiment where the red light source is realized by blue LED flip-chips with red phosphor, it is preferable that the green light source realized by green LED flip-chips is arranged between the blue light source and the red light source. Otherwise, the blue light emitting by the blue light source may inadvertently excite the red phosphor of the neighboring red light source to undesirably generate some red light. Therefore, in such embodiment, as an example, the first group of LED chips 31 is a red light source realized by blue LED flip-chips with red phosphor, the second group of LED chips 32 is a green light source realized by green LED flip-chips, and the third group of LED chips 33 is a blue light source realized by blue LED flip-chips.


Similarly, in the embodiment where the green light source is realized by blue LED flip-chips with green phosphor, it is preferable that the red light source realized by red LED flip-chips is arranged between the blue light source and the green light source. Otherwise, the light emitting by the blue light source may inadvertently excite the green phosphor of the neighboring green light source to undesirably generate some green light. Therefore, in such embodiment, as an example, the first group of LED chips 31 is a green light source realized by blue LED flip-chips with green phosphor, the second group of LED chips 32 is a red light source realized by red LED flip-chips, and the third group of LED chips 33 is a blue light source realized by blue LED flip-chips.


Briefly summarized, in the case where two groups of LED chips are realized by adopting the same color LED flip-chips but with different phosphors, it is preferable that these two groups of LED chips are separated by another group of LED chips realized by adopting a different color LED flip-chips so as to avoid interference from each other.


Referring to FIG. 3, a lamp includes a head housing 300, a bulb housing 200, and an LED filament 100. The bulb housing 200 connects to the head housing 300. The LED filament 100 is spiral and is arranged within the bulb housing 200. The LED filament 100 electrically connects to the head housing 300. In one embodiment, the frame 1 is a flexible printed circuit board. The frame 1 is configured with the transmissive tape 4 covering the light sources. Specifically, the transmissive tape 4 is made of silicon gel, or silicon gel with diffusion power. The diffusion powder is mixed with silicon gel to provide light transmissive opacity effect.

In some embodiments, the group of LED chips for emitting red light (i.e., the red light source) may be realized by adopting blue LED flip-chips with red phosphor, the group of LED chips for emitting green light (i.e., the green light source) may be realized by adopting blue LED flip-chips with green phosphors. The group of LED chips for emitting white light (i.e., the white light source) may be realized by adopting blue LED flip-chips with different phosphors to generate the red light, the green light, and the blue light, and then combining the red light, the green light, and the blue light to generate the white light. In the case where two groups of LED chips are realized by adopting the same color LED flip-chips but with different phosphors, it is preferable that these two groups of LED chips are separated by one or more groups of LED chips realized by adopting different color LED flip-chips so as to avoid interference from each other.


The first group, the second group, the third group, and the fourth group of LED chips are physically arranged along the strips 2, and are physically arranged in parallel to each other. Each of the first group, the second group, the third group, and the fourth group of LED chips may be respectively enabled via the first electrode 21 and the second electrode 22.

Each of the first group, the second group, the third group, and the fourth group of LED chips may be respectively provided with different voltages via the first electrode 21 and the second electrode 22 to generate light with different luminance.
