Lighting device with light-emitting filaments

A lighting device comprising:

• a plurality of light-emitting filaments, wherein each light-emitting filament comprises
• a carrier,
• two electrical contacts attached to the carrier,
• a plurality of solid-state light sources mounted on the carrier and electrically connected to the first and second electrical contacts, and
• an encapsulant comprising a translucent material, wherein the encapsulant at least partially encloses the solid-state light sources so as to receive light emitted by the solid-state light sources;
• and
• an circuit board comprising a first track, which is electrically conductive and follows a first path, and a second track which is electrically conductive and follows a second path,
• wherein the light-emitting filaments are arranged consecutively along the first and second tracks and extend therebetween,
• wherein one of the electrical contacts of each light-emitting filament is electrically connected to the first track at a first point on the first path and the other electrical contact of each light-emitting filament is electrically connected to the second track at a second point on the second path,
• wherein the first and second points associated with each light-emitting filament are arranged at a distance from each other on an axis,
• and wherein the axis) of each light-emitting filament is non-perpendicular to a tangent to the first path at the first point and to a tangent to the second path at the second point.
