Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil d'éclairage à DEL allongé comprenant une tige centrale, une pluralité de roues d'installation, une pluralité de DEL et une pluralité de cartes de circuit. Les roues d'installation sont conçues pour être traversées par la tige centrale et comprennent chacune : une boucle conçue pour être traversée par la tige centrale ; une pluralité de supports de carte de circuit s'étendant radialement vers l'extérieur à partir d'une surface externe de la boucle ; une pluralité de pointes s'étendant radialement vers l'extérieur à partir de la boucle. Les cartes de circuit allongées sont conçues pour être électriquement connectées à une source d'alimentation, chaque carte de circuit étant configurée pour transférer de l'énergie à des DEL respectives parmi les DEL et pour maintenir les DEL respectives le long d'une longueur longitudinale de la carte de circuit, chaque carte de circuit étant configurée pour venir en prise avec une pluralité de supports de carte de circuit alignés l'un avec l'autre et étant maintenue par ceux-ci, de telle sorte que les DEL respectives soient face radialement vers l'extérieur.
