Abstract
The instant invention relates to a sub-miniature high powered light emitting diode and accompanying mounting tab device. The instant invention seeks to provide a solution to light fixture designers by making a readily available and tightly compact light emitting diode mounting device. The instant invention provides for a mounting tab with a heat dissipating element to take advantage of the tiny size of sub-miniature high powered light emitting diodes while adding negligible mounting and heat dissipating elements to set a new lighting device standard in versatility, optimal heat dissipation, and minimal mounting overhead.
Claims11
A sub-miniature lightbulb and mounting tab comprising:
- a mounting tab having a body with a first end and second end, wherein said first end is configured for attachment to a mounting surface, wherein said first end and said second end of said mounting tab body are comprised of a uniform material, wherein said material is a thermal conducting material;
- said second end of said mounting tab body having at least one sub-miniature light emitting diode module having, an anode pad and cathode pad and a bottom side heat pad, wherein said heat pad attaches said LED module to said mounting tab body such that said LED module is in direct contact with said mounting tab body and said heat pad is configured to dissipate heat from said LED module through said heat pad to said mounting tab body, wherein said mounting tab body is configured to further dissipate heat to an underlying structure said mounting tab is mounted too;
- and an anode wire connected to said anode pad and a cathode wire connected to said cathode pad, wherein said anode wire and said cathode wire are configured for connection to a power source.
A mounting tab device comprising:
- a mounting tab having a body with a first end and a second end, wherein said mounting tab body is comprised of a uniform material, said first end being configured for attachment to an external surface, said second end having a thermal conducting dielectric epoxy plate, wherein said dielectric epoxy connects two electrical leads to said mounting tab and to a light emitting diode package.
