Description

本発明は、発光モジュールに関するものであり、さらに詳しくは、太陽電池やその他の電池と組み合わせて例えば照明装置や案内標識などに使用することのできる発光モジュール、特に複数の発光ダイオード(LED)が含まれている発光モジュールの改良に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a light-emitting module, and more specifically, includes a light-emitting module that can be used for, for example, a lighting device or a guide sign in combination with a solar battery or other batteries, particularly a plurality of light-emitting diodes (LED). The present invention relates to an improvement of a light emitting module.

近年において、LEDが含まれている発光モジュールは、低消費電力、長寿命などの観点からその市場が急速に拡大している。このような発光モジュールの1つの例としては、特許文献1に記載されたものが知られている。   In recent years, the market of light emitting modules including LEDs has been rapidly expanding from the viewpoint of low power consumption, long life, and the like. As an example of such a light emitting module, one described in Patent Document 1 is known.

特開平8−18105号公報JP-A-8-18105

また、LEDが含まれている発光モジュールの別の例としては、第1基板と、第1封止層と、絶縁基板に配線パターンが形成され、この配線パターンに対応して複数個のLEDが実装されているLED基板と、LEDの光出射面を露出させてLEDを封止するLED封止層と、第2封止層と、第2基板とが順次積層されてなるものが知られている。   Further, as another example of the light emitting module including the LED, a wiring pattern is formed on the first substrate, the first sealing layer, and the insulating substrate, and a plurality of LEDs corresponding to the wiring pattern are formed. It is known that the mounted LED substrate, the LED sealing layer that seals the LED by exposing the light emitting surface of the LED, the second sealing layer, and the second substrate are sequentially laminated. Yes.

このような発光モジュールでは、第1封止層および第2封止層を構成する材料として例えばEVA(エチレンビニルアセテート)シートが使用されている。このため、EVAの主剤である酢酸ビニルまたは添加剤である架橋剤および紫外線吸収剤が、LEDの発光により生じる紫外線および発熱作用によって一部分解されることがある。分解により生じた物質は、低分子のガス状態にあってLEDの発光効率を低下させる原因物質になる。   In such a light emitting module, for example, an EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate) sheet is used as a material constituting the first sealing layer and the second sealing layer. For this reason, vinyl acetate, which is the main component of EVA, or a crosslinking agent and an ultraviolet absorber, which are additives, may be partially decomposed by ultraviolet rays and heat generation caused by the light emission of the LED. The substance produced by the decomposition is in a low molecular gas state and becomes a causative substance that lowers the luminous efficiency of the LED.

例えば白色光を発するLEDの場合には、長期寿命(長期信頼性)を確保するためにLED封止層の封止剤として透明なシリコーン樹脂を用いるのが一般的である。しかしながら、シリコーン樹脂は、多孔性樹脂であり、ガス透過率が高く、LEDの発光効率を低下させるガス状の前記原因物質を透過させてしまう性質を有している。   For example, in the case of an LED that emits white light, a transparent silicone resin is generally used as a sealant for the LED sealing layer in order to ensure a long life (long-term reliability). However, the silicone resin is a porous resin, has a high gas permeability, and has a property of transmitting the gaseous causative substance that reduces the light emission efficiency of the LED.

また、封止剤であるEVAは、厚さが厚いほど吸湿し易くなる性質を有している。そして、吸湿した場合には、白濁することで発光モジュールの発光特性を低下させるとともに、LEDおよびLEDを実装しているLED基板の配線部の腐食を招くおそれがある。さらに、発光モジュールの中に発電用として太陽電池を封入した場合には、吸湿したEVAによって、太陽電池における電極部の変色や発電性能の低下が起きることがある。   Moreover, EVA which is a sealing agent has a property that moisture absorption becomes easier as the thickness increases. And when it absorbs moisture, while becoming cloudy, while reducing the light emission characteristic of a light emitting module, there exists a possibility of causing the corrosion of the wiring part of LED board which mounts LED and LED. Further, when a solar cell is encapsulated in the light emitting module for power generation, the hygroscopic EVA may cause discoloration of the electrode part of the solar cell and a decrease in power generation performance.

本発明は、このような実情に鑑みてなされたものであり、その課題は、発光ダイオードの発光効率を低下させる原因物質が発光ダイオードに取り込まれるおそれがなく、また、吸湿性が従来よりも低減された発光モジュールを提供することにある。   The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and the problem is that a causative substance that lowers the light emission efficiency of the light emitting diode is not likely to be taken into the light emitting diode, and the hygroscopicity is lower than in the past. And providing a light emitting module.

本発明によれば、第1基板と、第1封止層と、複数個の発光ダイオードが実装された発光ダイオード基板と、発光ダイオードの光出射面を露出させて発光ダイオードを封止する発光ダイオード封止層と、第2封止層と、第2基板とが順次積層された構造を備えてなり、発光ダイオード基板と第1封止層または第2封止層との間に、実装された発光ダイオードの光出射面を覆うとともに該光出射面からの出射光の透過を確保する一方でガス状物質の透過を阻止する中間膜層が設けられていることと、発光ダイオード封止層は、発光ダイオード露出用の穴が開けられたEVAシートからなり、第1封止層および第2封止層は、このような穴が開けられていないEVAシートからなり、発光ダイオード露出用の穴が開けられたEVAシートは、その厚さが実装された発光ダイオードの高さよりも0.2mm〜0.5mmだけ薄いことを特徴とする発光モジュールが提供される。 According to the present invention, a first substrate, a first sealing layer, a light emitting diode substrate on which a plurality of light emitting diodes are mounted, and a light emitting diode that seals the light emitting diode by exposing a light emitting surface of the light emitting diode. The sealing layer, the second sealing layer, and the second substrate are sequentially stacked, and are mounted between the light emitting diode substrate and the first sealing layer or the second sealing layer. An intermediate film layer that covers the light emitting surface of the light emitting diode and ensures the transmission of the emitted light from the light emitting surface while preventing the transmission of the gaseous substance, and the light emitting diode sealing layer, The first sealing layer and the second sealing layer are made of an EVA sheet having no holes, and the holes for exposing the light emitting diodes are formed. The EVA sheet is Of the 0.2mm~0.5mm light emitting module, wherein only the thin is provided than the height of the mounted light emitting diodes.

中間膜層は、発光ダイオード(LED)の封止剤(例えばシリコーン樹脂)の表面に発光モジュールの封止剤(例えばEVA)が直接接しないようにするものである。また、中間膜層は発光モジュールにおける封止層の積層を分断する構造を兼ねるものとなる。   The intermediate film layer prevents the sealing agent (for example, EVA) of the light emitting module from directly contacting the surface of the sealing agent (for example, silicone resin) of the light emitting diode (LED). Further, the intermediate film layer also serves as a structure that divides the lamination of the sealing layers in the light emitting module.

ここで、中間膜層としては例えば、PVA(ポリ酢酸ビニル)フィルムからなる層、PVAフィルムにSiOxがコーティングされてなる層、またはPET(ポリエチレンテレフタレート)フィルムにSiOxがコーティングされてなる層などが好ましく使用される。   Here, as the intermediate film layer, for example, a layer made of a PVA (polyvinyl acetate) film, a layer made of PVA film coated with SiOx, or a layer made of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) film coated with SiOx is preferable. used.

中間膜層は例えば、実装された発光ダイオードの光出射面を覆う1枚の方形フィルムまたは複数枚の短冊状フィルムなどが好ましく使用される。   As the intermediate film layer, for example, one rectangular film or a plurality of strip-shaped films covering the light emitting surface of the mounted light emitting diode is preferably used.

中間膜層は、その厚さが0.01mm〜0.05mmであるのが好ましい。厚さが0.01mmに満たないときにはフィルムの取り扱いが容易ではなく、一方、0.05mmを超えるときには発光ダイオードからの出射光の透過が不充分になるおそれがあるからである。   The interlayer film layer preferably has a thickness of 0.01 mm to 0.05 mm. This is because when the thickness is less than 0.01 mm, handling of the film is not easy, while when it exceeds 0.05 mm, there is a possibility that the transmission of the emitted light from the light emitting diode may be insufficient.

中間膜層は、ガス状物質の透過をいっそう確実に阻止するために、実装された発光ダイオードの光出射面と接しているのが好ましい。   The interlayer film layer is preferably in contact with the light emitting surface of the mounted light emitting diode in order to more reliably prevent the gaseous substance from passing therethrough.

本発明にあっては、発光ダイオード基板と第1封止層または第2封止層との間に、ガス状物質の透過を阻止する中間膜層、すなわちガスブロック性能を有する中間膜層が配置されている。これにより、LEDの封止剤(例えばシリコーン樹脂)が発光モジュールの封止剤(例えばEVA)に接することがなくなり、LEDの発光効率の低下を招く封止剤の分解成分がLEDに取り込まれるおそれがなくなる。さらに、配置された中間膜層は発光モジュールに用いる封止層の積層を分断する構造を兼ねるものとなる。そして、分断されていない封止層の厚さを薄くすることが可能になることから、吸湿性を低減する効果も得られる。   In the present invention, an intermediate film layer that prevents the permeation of gaseous substances, that is, an intermediate film layer having gas blocking performance, is disposed between the light emitting diode substrate and the first sealing layer or the second sealing layer. Has been. Thereby, the sealing agent (for example, silicone resin) of the LED does not come into contact with the sealing agent (for example, EVA) of the light emitting module, and the decomposition component of the sealing agent that causes a decrease in the light emission efficiency of the LED may be taken into the LED. Disappears. Furthermore, the disposed intermediate film layer also serves as a structure for dividing the stack of sealing layers used in the light emitting module. And since it becomes possible to make thin the thickness of the sealing layer which is not parted, the effect of reducing hygroscopicity is also acquired.

以下、本発明を実施するための3つの実施形態について説明する。なお、本発明はこれらの実施形態によって限定されるものではない。   Hereinafter, three embodiments for carrying out the present invention will be described. Note that the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

実施形態1
実施形態1を図1〜図6に基づいて説明する。図1に示されたように、厚さ5.0mmの第1基板としての透明ガラス板8に、封止材である厚さ0.6mmのEVA(エチレンビニルアセテート)シートを2枚積層した第1封止層7を設けた。次いで、第1封止層7に多数の発光ダイオード(LED)4を実装したLED基板6を積層し、LED4へ電力を供給するための配線を施した。
Embodiment 1
Embodiment 1 is demonstrated based on FIGS. As shown in FIG. 1, a transparent glass plate 8 as a first substrate having a thickness of 5.0 mm is laminated with two 0.6 mm thick EVA (ethylene vinyl acetate) sheets as a sealing material. One sealing layer 7 was provided. Next, an LED substrate 6 on which a large number of light emitting diodes (LEDs) 4 were mounted was laminated on the first sealing layer 7, and wiring for supplying power to the LEDs 4 was applied.

その後、LED基板6の上に、厚さ0.6mmであってφ10.0mmのLED露出用の穴10が穴開け加工より複数個施された封止材であるEVAシートを3枚積層して、LED封止層5を設けた。LED封止層5の積層厚さは、例えば実装後のLED4の高さが2.0mmである場合には、0.6mm×3=1.8mmとなり、実装後のLED高さよりも2.0mm−1.8mm=0.2mmだけ低いものとなる。   Thereafter, three EVA sheets, which are sealing materials in which a plurality of LED exposure holes 10 having a thickness of 0.6 mm and a diameter of φ10.0 mm are provided by drilling, are stacked on the LED substrate 6. The LED sealing layer 5 was provided. The stacking thickness of the LED sealing layer 5 is, for example, 0.6 mm × 3 = 1.8 mm when the height of the LED 4 after mounting is 2.0 mm, which is 2.0 mm than the LED height after mounting. −1.8 mm = 0.2 mm lower.

次いで、LED封止層5の上に、厚さ0.012mmのPET(ポリエチレンテレフタレート)フィルム基材に蒸着によってSiOx(シリカ)蒸着膜がコーティングされてなる中間膜層3を積層した。この実施形態では、中間膜層3としては、三菱樹脂株式会社製の商品名「テックバリアTCB-HI3」のものを使用し、SiOx非蒸着面がLED4の上面である光出射面に接するように配置した。この状態を示す概略断面図が図4である。   Next, on the LED sealing layer 5, an interlayer film layer 3 formed by coating a PET (polyethylene terephthalate) film substrate having a thickness of 0.012 mm with a SiOx (silica) deposited film by deposition was laminated. In this embodiment, as the intermediate film layer 3, the product name “Tech Barrier TCB-HI3” manufactured by Mitsubishi Plastics, Inc. is used, and the SiOx non-deposition surface is in contact with the light emitting surface which is the upper surface of the LED 4. Arranged. FIG. 4 is a schematic sectional view showing this state.

その後、中間膜層3の上に、封止材である厚さ0.6mmのEVAシートを3枚積層した第2封止層2を設けた。そして、第2封止層2の上に厚さ5.0mmの第2基板としての透明ガラス板11を積層した。   Then, the 2nd sealing layer 2 which laminated | stacked three 0.6 mm thick EVA sheets which are sealing materials on the intermediate film layer 3 was provided. Then, a transparent glass plate 11 as a second substrate having a thickness of 5.0 mm was laminated on the second sealing layer 2.

以上の各積層が完了した積層体を熱圧着装置に投入して、約150度で1時間の熱圧着処理を行い、封止剤であるEVAを架橋させることで発光モジュール1を完成した。   The laminated body in which each of the above laminations was completed was put into a thermocompression bonding apparatus, a thermocompression treatment was performed at about 150 degrees for 1 hour, and EVA as a sealant was crosslinked to complete the light emitting module 1.

この熱圧着による封止・接着作用により、それぞれのLED4の周囲に設けられた空間が周囲からのEVAの流入により塞がれて封止・接着され、LED4の光出射面が中間膜層3で被覆され、中間膜層3の上面からはさらに封止剤であるEVAで封止される。   By the sealing / adhesion action by thermocompression bonding, the space provided around each LED 4 is blocked and sealed and adhered by the inflow of EVA from the surroundings, and the light emitting surface of the LED 4 is the intermediate film layer 3. Covered and further sealed with EVA as a sealant from the upper surface of the intermediate film layer 3.

実装後のLED4の高さとLED封止層5の厚さとの間における上記のような関係は、次のような理由によるものである。   The above relationship between the height of the LED 4 after mounting and the thickness of the LED sealing layer 5 is due to the following reason.

すなわち、LED4の高さとLED封止層5の厚さとの差が0.2mmより小さいときには、製造時のバラツキ(例えばLED4の実装高さバラツキ)により中間膜層3がLED4の光出射面に接しない構造となってしまい、充分なガスバリア機能を果さないことがある。一方、この差が0.5mmより大きいときには、積層された中間膜層3が大きく変形して、第2封止層2の中に気泡やシワが発生するため、接着不良・外観不良が発生してしまうおそれがある。さらに、この実施形態で使用したPET基材にSiOx蒸着を施した中間膜層3の場合には、中間膜層3の変形する角度が大きくなると、表面の蒸着膜にクラックが発生して、充分なガスバリア機能を果さなくなってしまうことがある。   That is, when the difference between the height of the LED 4 and the thickness of the LED sealing layer 5 is smaller than 0.2 mm, the interlayer film layer 3 is in contact with the light emitting surface of the LED 4 due to manufacturing variations (for example, mounting height variations of the LED 4). The gas barrier function may not be achieved. On the other hand, when this difference is larger than 0.5 mm, the laminated intermediate film layer 3 is greatly deformed, and bubbles and wrinkles are generated in the second sealing layer 2. There is a risk that. Further, in the case of the intermediate film layer 3 obtained by performing SiOx vapor deposition on the PET base material used in this embodiment, if the deformation angle of the intermediate film layer 3 increases, cracks are generated in the vapor deposition film on the surface, which is sufficient. The gas barrier function may not be achieved.

従って、LED4の実装高さと、LED露出用の穴10を穴開け加工により施したLED封止材5の厚さとの差は、0.2mm〜0.5mmであることが好ましく、0.2mm〜0.3mmであればいっそう好ましい。   Therefore, the difference between the mounting height of the LED 4 and the thickness of the LED sealing material 5 in which the LED exposure hole 10 is drilled is preferably 0.2 mm to 0.5 mm, preferably 0.2 mm to 0.3 mm is more preferable.

この実施形態では、中間膜層3としてPET基材にSiOx蒸着を施したものを用いたが、中間膜層は、ガスバリア性を有するフィルムであれば他のものであってもよい。例えば、PVAフィルム、PVAフィルム+SiOxコートフィルムなどを用いても同様の効果が得られるものである。   In this embodiment, a film obtained by subjecting a PET base material to SiOx vapor deposition is used as the intermediate film layer 3, but the intermediate film layer may be another film as long as it has a gas barrier property. For example, the same effect can be obtained by using a PVA film, PVA film + SiOx coat film, or the like.

また、中間膜層3の平面サイズは、この実施形態においては発光モジュールの外形平面寸法と同サイズで作製したが、LED4の光出射面を確実にカバーすることができれば、いかなるサイズでもよい。例えば、複数枚の短冊状カバーフィルムをLED4の配列に従って配置してもよい。   In addition, in this embodiment, the planar size of the intermediate film layer 3 is the same as the outer planar size of the light emitting module. However, any size may be used as long as the light emitting surface of the LED 4 can be reliably covered. For example, a plurality of strip-shaped cover films may be arranged according to the arrangement of the LEDs 4.

さらに、この実施形態で用いた封止剤はEVAであるが、EVA以外の封止剤、例えばポリオレフィン系の熱圧着性樹脂、EEAやEAAなどの熱圧着性樹脂などを用いても同様の効果を得ることができる。   Furthermore, although the sealant used in this embodiment is EVA, the same effect can be obtained by using a sealant other than EVA, for example, a polyolefin-based thermocompression bonding resin, a thermocompression bonding resin such as EEA or EAA, and the like. Can be obtained.

なお、この実施形態において、封止材であるEVAシートは0.6mmの厚さのものを使用したが、その他の厚さのEVAシートや例えばポリオレフィン系封止材を用いても同様の効果を得ることができる。   In this embodiment, the EVA sheet that is the sealing material is 0.6 mm thick, but the same effect can be obtained by using other thickness EVA sheets or, for example, polyolefin-based sealing materials. Obtainable.

また、この実施形態では、第1基板および第2基板として透明ガラス板8・11を使用したが、例えばポリカーボーネート板やアクリル板のようなプラスチック製透明基板を用いてもよい。さらに、透明ガラス板8・11に代えて、不透明あるいは半透明のガラス板、プラスチック板、フィルムまたはシートを用いてもよい。   In this embodiment, the transparent glass plates 8 and 11 are used as the first substrate and the second substrate. However, for example, a plastic transparent substrate such as a polycarbonate plate or an acrylic plate may be used. Further, an opaque or translucent glass plate, plastic plate, film or sheet may be used in place of the transparent glass plates 8 and 11.
