Optical enclosures for led modules

Abstract

Various embodiments include combined lens and safety enclosure apparatuses and methods for forming the apparatuses. In one example a combined lens and safety enclosure apparatus for a light-emitting diode (LED) module is disclosed. The enclosure apparatus includes at least one plastic-material-based optical-lens element mounted over a plurality of LED elements, where a distance between the optical-lens element and any portion of any one of the plurality of LED elements is spaced away from each other by at least 0.8 mm. A driver-on-board (DoB) subsystem, including an electronic circuit configured to provide power to the plurality of LED elements, has a plastic-material-based optical enclosure mounted over the DoB subsystem. A distance between the optical enclosure and any portion of any of the electronic circuit is spaced away from optical enclosure by at least 0.8 mm. Other devices and methods are described.
