Abstract
An optical semiconductor lighting apparatus including a housing with a first end portion and a second end portion that is open, a light source module disposed in the housing, a fan disposed adjacent to the light source module in the housing, the fan rotating in a first direction to blow air toward the light source module, and a reflector disposed adjacent to the second end portion of the housing, the reflector enhancing an illumination scope. A moving path, in which at least a portion of the air drawn into the housing by the fan externally flows through the light source module, is formed in the housing.
Claims9
An optical semiconductor lighting apparatus, comprising:
- a housing comprising a first end portion and a second end portion, wherein the first and second end portions comprise two separate pieces forming a plurality of outer vents therebetween;
- a light source module disposed inside the housing, the light source module comprising a plurality of optical semiconductor elements;
- a reflector forming at least a portion of the second end portion of the housing, wherein:
- the reflector comprises a first surface configured to reflect light emitted from the light source module and a second surface formed opposite to the first surface;
- the second surface is exposed to ambient air;
- and
- the reflector is coupled to a plurality of end portion supports disposed on the second end portion, each of the end portion supports being separated from one another by the plurality of outer vents, respectively;
- a fan disposed inside the housing adjacent to the light source module, wherein:
- the fan is disposed above the plurality of outer vents with respect to air flow from the fan;
- the fan is configured to rotate in a first direction whereby air is blown through the plurality of outer vents towards the light source module and is ejected over the second surface of the reflector;
- an inner vent disposed in a base plate along an axis that is at an acute angle with respect to a vertical line, the inner vent being disposed between the light source module and the outer vent.
