  The present invention relates to a light-emitting structure, and more particularly to a light-emitting structure that can be used for advertising billboards or buildings.

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, a building or the like is configured by fitting a small lighting fixture on a wall or floor of a building for night illumination or the like after completion of construction. Such a building or the like is beautifully illuminated in various colors by the light generated from these small lighting fixtures by turning on the small lighting fixtures fitted on the wall or floor at night.
However, conventional small lighting fixtures that decorate the nighttime beauty of these buildings often use light bulbs that have problems such as high power consumption, non-water resistance, non-pressure resistance, and easy damage.

  Therefore, recently, as the small illuminator, a plurality of light emitting diodes having characteristics such as power saving and long service life are used as an alternative to the light bulb. These light-emitting diodes have the same overall structure as the light bulb and have no other shape.

  However, a plurality of small lighting fixtures such as light bulbs and light emitting diodes are required when they are arranged side by side to form a letter or figure so that they can be used for advertising billboards, etc., resulting in high costs and time and man-hours for installation. Take it.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and can be formed in various colors and shapes, and even when a plurality of shapes and figures are required, the light emitting structure is inexpensive and does not take time and man-hours to install. The purpose is to provide.

  In order to solve the above problems, a light emitting structure according to an aspect of the present invention is a light emitting structure that can be used for a signboard or a building, and includes a substrate that electrically connects a plurality of light emitting members, and the substrate. And a cover for sealing the light emitting member.

  The light emitting structure of the present invention can be formed in various colors and shapes, and has an effect that the cost is low even when a plurality of letter shapes and figures are formed side by side, and the installation takes less time and man-hours.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 4 shows a manufacturing process of the light emitting structure of FIG. 2 and a cross section when the substrate of FIG. FIG. 5 is a schematic view of a light emitting structure formed so as to represent a “character” shape.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the light emitting structure 10 according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes a substrate 1, a light emitting member 2, a pedestal 3, and a cover 4. The light emitting structure 10 can be used for billboards or wall tiles or floor tiles of buildings.

  The substrate 1 is composed of a rigid printed board formed of an acrylic plate or the like as a circuit board, a flexible printed board formed of a synthetic resin or the like. The substrate 1 had a copper film circuit forming a conductor pattern, and was provided with a transmission line such as a power source or a control signal.

  A plurality of light emitting members 2 are mounted on the copper film circuit of the substrate 1. The light emitting member 2 is composed of a monochromatic or multicolor light emitting diode. Alternatively, the light emitting member 2 may be configured by EL (electroluminescence).

  The substrate 1 is disposed on the pedestal 3. The pedestal 3 is made of a polymer resin. This polymer resin is mixed with any one of sand, glass, metal, or ceramic of high hardness particles, and the pedestal 3 is formed so as to have characteristics such as pressure resistance, waterproofness, and heat resistance. Alternatively, the polymer resin may be formed such that a flame retardant is mixed to prevent the pedestal 3 from burning and to achieve the purpose of fire prevention.

  The cover 4 is formed by filling the entire surface of the light emitting members 2 so as to embed the plurality of light emitting members 2 and sealing the edges of the substrate 1 and the pedestal 3. The cover 4 is made of a polymer resin having a light guiding property or a light transmitting property.

Next, a manufacturing process of the light emitting structure 10 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 3, the plurality of light emitting members 2 are mounted on the copper film circuit of the substrate 2. At this time, when the light emitting member 2 is, for example, a light emitting diode, the anode and cathode terminals are connected to the copper film circuit by soldering.

Next, as shown in FIG. 4, the substrate 1 on which the plurality of light emitting members 2 are mounted is bonded and fixed to the pedestal 3, for example. Further, a semi-finished product structure comprising the substrate 1, the light emitting member 2 and the pedestal 3 is placed in a mold, and a light guide or translucent polymer resin is injected to fill the entire surface of the light emitting member 2, and the substrate 1 and the edge of the base 3 are sealed to form the cover 4 as shown in FIG.
In this production, a colored pigment can be mixed into the polymer resin so that the cover 4 has a different color. In this case, the light emitting member 2 can selectively use monochromatic white light.

  The light emitting structure 10 configured as described above can turn on the light emitting member 2 when power is transmitted from the conductive wire connected to the substrate 1. Light generated from the light emitting member 2 is guided or transmitted by the polymer resin of the cover 4 and is emitted from the entire surface of the cover 4. The light emitting member 2 may be controlled to blink.

In this case, the light emitting structure 10A is configured such that a character or design portion is a translucent area, and a portion without a character or design is a non-translucent area, and the light emitting member 2 is turned on by turning on the light emitting member 2. Light lifts the letters or designs on the surface of the cover 4. Alternatively, the light emitting structure 10A may be formed in a character or design shape by arranging a plurality of structures themselves.

 Accordingly, the light emitting structure 10A can be used for an advertisement signboard or the like by forming the cover 4 in a shape such as letters, numbers, or figures. Therefore, this invention is provided with the cover structure which seals the light emitting member 2, and can form this cover structure in various colors and shapes, such as a wall tile and a floor tile.
