  • With reference to Figs. 1 to 3 for an exploded view of an internal structure, a perspective view of the internal structure, and a perspective view of the overall structure of the present invention respectively, the present invention provides an LED road lamp holder structure, comprising a lamp guard 1, an LED unit 2, and a heat dissipating device 3. The LED unit 2 is installed at the bottom of the lamp guard 1 for providing illuminations, and the heat dissipating device 3 is installed in the lamp guard 1, attached to the backside of the LED unit 2, and extended towards the top of the lamp guard 1 for conducting heat and providing the required heat dissipating effect for the LED unit 2.
  • The lamp guard 1 is comprised of a chassis 10 and an upper casing 11, and the LED unit 2 is installed at the bottom of the chassis 10, such that the light source of the LED unit 2 can be projected towards the bottom of the lamp guard 1. A cover plate 12 is formed and erected separately on both left and right sides of the chassis 10, and the slightly curved upper casing 11 is disposed between two cover plates 12, and a plurality of ventilation holes 120 are disposed on the cover plate 12. A stud 100 is erected in the chassis 10, and a screw hole 110 is disposed at a position corresponding to the upper casing 11 for passing a screw 111 and securing the screw 11 into the stud 100 to combine the chassis 10 and the upper casing 11. In addition, a wire tube 13 is installed in the lamp guard 1 and connected to one of the cover plates 12 for installing a power cable (not shown in the figure).
  • The heat dissipating device 3 is installed in the lamp guard and comprises a base 30, at least one curved vapor chamber 31, and a heat dissipating element 32 disposed separately on both left and right sides of the vapor chamber 31. The base 30 is in the form of a sheet attached on the backside of the LED unit 2 for dissipating heat. The base 30 has a groove 301 disposed at the bottom of the base 30 (as shown in Fig. 4) and provided for embedding and containing the LED unit 2. The vapor chamber 31 is in the form of a long sheet with both ends bent upward along the lengthwise direction to form a heated section 310 attached onto the base 30, and two heat transmitting sections 311 are bent and extended upward from both sides of the heated section 310, and a cooling section 312 is bent and extended laterally from each of the two heat transmitting sections 311. In addition, the two heat dissipating elements 32 can be an aluminum extruded heat sink (as shown in the figure), a stacked heat sink or any other heat sink (not shown in the figure) having a heated base 320, and a plurality of heat dissipating fins 321 are formed on the heated base 320 and arranged with a gap from each other. The two heat dissipating elements 32 are attached onto external sides of the two heat transmitting sections 311 of the vapor chamber 31 by their respective heated base 320, such that each heat dissipating fin 321 is extended from the space sideway to increase the heat dissipating area.
  • In summation of the description above, each of the two heat dissipating elements 32 has a slot 322 disposed on the heated base 320 and proximate to the bottom of the base 30 for abutting the corners on both sides of base 30, a plurality of through holes 300, 323 for passing the base 30 and the heated base 320, and a screw device 324 such as a bolt for securing the base 30 with the heated base 320. In the meantime, the heated base 320 of the two heat dissipating elements 32 has an embedding groove 325 disposed proximate to an external side of the vapor chamber 31, wherein the embedding groove 325 has a width corresponding to the vapor chamber 31 for installing the vapor chamber 31 between the embedding grooves 325 of the two heat dissipating elements 32.
  • In Figs. 3 and 4, the two condensing sections 312 of the vapor chamber 31 are bent sideway in the same direction with each other (as shown in the figures) or bent sideway in opposite directions with each other (not shown in the figure). In this preferred embodiment, the two condensing sections 312 are not in contact with each other. In the preferred embodiment as shown in Fig. 5, the two condensing sections are disposed corresponding to each other and in contact with each other, and the quantity of vapor chambers 31 is increased to more than one. Most importantly, the two condensing sections 312 of the vapor chamber 31 are extended upward through their respective heat transmitting section 311 and attached onto the internal surface of the upper casing 11 of the lamp guard 1, such that after the base 30 of the heat dissipating device 3 absorbs the heat produced by the LED unit, the vapor chamber 31 will conduct a portion of the heat to the upward direction, and the two heat dissipating elements 32 dissipate another portion of the heat to the outside. The two condensing sections 312 of the vapor chamber 31 are attached onto the internal periphery of the top of the lamp guard 1 for sharing the burden of discharging the remaining heat from the lamp guard 1 to the outside.
  • In Fig. 6, the vapor chamber 31 is formed by arranging a plurality of heat pipes 313 closely adjacent with each other.
