- the angular spectrum of the light beam exiting the light emitting device is about 20 ° to about 60 °, preferably about 30 ° to about 50 °, most preferably about 35 ° to about 50 °.
- the light bundling device and the board can be spatially fixed to each other.

- the circuit board can be arranged on a cover.
- the lid may be fixed, for example by means of a snap-in technique, on the housing opposite to the light-directing device.
- the lens may be disposed on the board as previously described.

- the sealing arrangement according to the invention has the advantage that the waste heat of the light emitting diode is not or only to a small extent guided into the seal, which increases the life of the seal. Due to the thermal load due to the waste heat of the LED, the life of the seal can be shortened. Further, the circuit board can be made in any shape, such as rectangular, and does not necessarily have to be round, which would be the case if the light emitting diode was arranged at the light exit opening.
- the recess in the seal may be formed as an opening or as a blind hole, which receives the light-emitting diode of the opposite region of the housing of the household appliance light emitting device.
- the seal should be formed in this case, at least in the region of the receptacle or the blind hole of a semi-transparent or transparent material.

- This embodiment has a simpler structure and can be mounted more easily. In this embodiment, the wiring is easier to implement.
- the light-emitting device according to the invention has the advantage that it can be produced from a few parts, which can be produced inexpensively in a casting process. Furthermore, the light emitting device according to the invention is constructed so that the effects of manufacturing tolerances are minimized. Since the light-emitting diode 10 emits a light beam 18 with a relatively large aperture angle from the lens 16, the positional tolerance of the light-emitting diode on the circuit board 12 and the positional tolerance of the circuit board 12 relative to the housing 2 have only a relatively small influence on the quality of the light source emitted by the light emitting device light beam.
- position tolerance also applies to a tilting of the light emitting diode 10, the board, the chip of the light emitting diode and / or the lens 16 of the light emitting diode. Due to the large opening angle of the emerging from the light emitting diode 10 light beam 18, the light emitting device is tolerant to tilting tolerances. Even with one
