Description

LED Landscape Lighting Equipment {LED VIEW ILLUMINATION APPARATUS}

The present invention relates to an LED landscape lighting apparatus, and more particularly, to an LED landscape lighting apparatus that can produce a variety of bending light by connecting a plurality of bar-shaped lighting units to rotate with each other.

BACKGROUND ART In the sign lighting market, various light sources such as fluorescent lamps, neon lights and halogens have preoccupied in the past. However, in recent years, LEDs (light emitting devices) have been in the spotlight as sign light sources.

The reason why the LED is spotlighted as a sign light source is because of the device characteristics of the LED.

Conventional light sources emit light using mercury, but the LEDs are eco-friendly because they do not use mercury, and maintenance costs are reduced because they consume less power.

In addition, the LED has a longer life than the conventional light source, has excellent durability and robust characteristics.

In addition, due to the change in the perception of the sign, as the three-dimensional sign and the channel sign have become a recent trend, small and light LEDs are attracting attention as an internal light source.

In particular, as LEDs are becoming more bright, the utilization of sign light sources is becoming more active. Currently, the luminous efficiency of LED is increased by 30 times every 10 years, so the performance index of red and orange yellow LED has already exceeded the level of fluorescent lamp, and the efficiency of white LED commercial products is announced as 40 ~ 50lm / W. In addition, as the development of technology is being carried out in various aspects such as LED related chip structure, LED substrate, fluorescent material and package structure, the brightness of LED is expected to be further improved.

The manufacturing process of LED products is classified into board, epi wafer, chip, chip package, module and application system. Especially, LED products for sign are manufactured based on chip package in module form. Thus, the product capacity of the module depends on the chip, the chip package, and the modularization technology.

Also important for sign LED modules is the type of device along the chip package. The device is divided into basic basic type, Super Flux type (Piranha type), Flat type, Power LED, SMD and so on.

In particular, SMD (Surface Mount Devices), which can be directly attached to a pattern, is widely used in various sign LED products due to its wide application range.

The LED has been gradually used in the sign field in that the brightness and luminous efficiency is gradually improved, and is driven at a low voltage, there is no risk of electric shock. In particular, as the recognition of three-dimensional signs such as molding signs and channel signs increases, they are actively applied as internal light sources, and the use of buildings and landscape lighting is also increasing due to the applicability of LEDs and the spectacular production effects.
