## Abstract

A heat-dissipating module includes a base plate and a plurality of fins. The base plate is made of sheet metal. The fins are formed by bending upwardly from the periphery of the base plate. Each of the fins has at least two bending sections. The region among the bending sections and the base plate is hollowed to form a plurality of airflow channels. By this structure, the airflow below the base plate can pass through the airflow channels to heat-exchange with the fins, thereby increasing the heat-dissipating effect. The present invention also relates to a lamp having the heat-dissipating module.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A lamp, including:
a casing having a hollow chamber;
a light-emitting assembly disposed totally within the hollow chamber; and
a heat-dissipating module for dissipating heat generated by the light-emitting assembly, the heat-dissipating module comprising:
a base plate made of sheet metal and connected to the top of the casing, which has a plurality of sides formed on edges of the base plate; and
a plurality of fins formed by bending upwardly from the plurality of sides, respectively, each of the fins having a root integrally extend from a corresponding side and at least two bending sections, the at least two bending sections comprising a first bending section extending from the root to form a first bending angle with respect to the base plate and a second bending section extending from one lateral side of the first bending section to form a second bending angle with respect to the first bending section, a region among the bending sections and the base plate being hollowed to form a plurality of airflow channels,
wherein a plurality of shrouds are formed in the hollow chamber, the light-emitting assembly includes a circuit board brought into directly thermal contact with a lower surface of the base plate and a plurality of LED arranged on the circuit board to be located within the plurality of shrouds, respectively.

### Claim 2

A lamp, including:
a casing having a hollow chamber;
a light-emitting assembly disposed totally within the hollow chamber; and
a heat-dissipating module for dissipating heat generated by the light-emitting assembly, the heat-dissipating module comprising:
a base plate made of sheet metal and connected to the top of the casing, which has a plurality of sides formed on edges of the base plate; and
a plurality of fins formed by bending upwardly from the plurality of sides, respectively, each of the fins having a root integrally extend from a corresponding side and at least two bending sections, the at least two bending sections comprising a first bending section extending from the root to form a first bending angle with respect to the base plate and a second bending section extending from one lateral side of the first bending section to form a second bending angle with respect to the first bending section, a region among the bending sections and the base plate being hollowed to form a plurality of airflow channels,
wherein a top surface of the casing is provided with a wire-exiting hole and a plurality of fixing holes, the base plate is brought into directly thermal contact with the top surface of the casing, the light-emitting assembly includes a circuit board disposed on an inner wall surface of hollow chamber opposite to the top surface and a plurality of LEDs arranged on the circuit board, the circuit board is further electrically connected to a wire, one end of the wire away from the circuit board penetrates the wire-exiting hole and is connected to an external power source for obtaining necessary electricity.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The lamp according to claim 2, wherein the base plate is provided with a through-hole for allowing one end of the wire penetrating the wire-exiting hole to pass through, the base plate further has a plurality of holes through which screws are fixed into the fixing holes to thereby fix the base plate to the casing.
