Lighting Board Using Cassette Light Unit

Abstract

A lighting board is made with a receptacle substrate accommodated to accept cassette light units. The convenience of assembly and disassembly of the light unit from the receptacle substrate makes the product easily to be maintained for changing different color light units, changing different displaying patterns, remove or replace a failed light unit in the lighting board.
