Thus, a flow is formed in which air outside the bulb-shaped lamp 11 is sucked into the sirocco fan 45 through the gaps between the heat radiating fins 32 of the heat radiating body 13 and exhausted to the outside.
Therefore, the heat transmitted from each LED 22 to the heat radiating body 13 by the forced air blowing by the sirocco fan 45 is radiated from each heat radiating fin 32 of the heat radiating body 13.

Further, since the space between the radiator 13 and the globe 14 is a sealed space, dust contained in the intake air can be prevented from entering the globe 14 and adhering to the LED 22 and becoming dirty.

  This eliminates the need for the case 16 that insulates the lighting circuit and the driving circuit from the heat radiating body 13, and supports the fan 15, the lighting circuit, and the driving circuit, thereby reducing the number of components and reducing the size.

Further, since the heat radiator 13 is a resin material, it can be formed in a complicated shape.For example, a plurality of connecting portions 32a that connect intermediate positions of the plurality of heat radiating fins 32 to each other can be formed. Thus, the strength of the plurality of heat radiation fins 32 can be improved.
Next, FIGS. 7 and 8 show a fourth embodiment, in which FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view of a light bulb shaped lamp, and FIG. 8 is a bottom view of a radiator of the light bulb shaped lamp.

  One suction hole 81 and one exhaust hole 82 are formed at opposite positions in the circumferential direction on the outer peripheral surface of the radiator 13, and meandered by a plurality of heat radiation fins 32 between the suction hole 81 and the exhaust hole 82. A ventilation path 83 is formed.

On the other end side of the heat radiating body 13, a fan 15 for forcibly blowing air so that air flows through the air passage 83 from the suction hole 81 toward the exhaust hole 82 is disposed. A centrifugal fan is used as the fan 15.
Further, the space between the radiator 13 and the globe 14 is a sealed space.

As the fan 15 rotates, the air outside the bulb lamp 11 is sucked into the air passage 83 from the suction hole 81 and exhausted from the exhaust hole 82 through the air passage 83 and the fan 15. Therefore, the heat transmitted from each LED 22 to the heat radiating body 13 by the forced air blowing by the fan 15 is radiated from each heat radiating fin 32 of the heat radiating body 13.
