LIGHT-EMITTING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18302418 titled 'LIGHT-EMITTING DEVICE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a light-emitting device with a base member and a light-reflective member.

  • The base member has a recess where a light-emitting element is placed.
  • The light-reflective member is continuously placed on the upper surface of the base member's bottom portion and a portion of the inner lateral surface of the recess's wall portion.
  • The inner lateral surface of the wall portion has three surfaces - a first surface, a second surface above the first surface, and a third surface connecting them.
  • The distance between the second surface and the light-emitting element is greater than the distance between the first surface and the light-emitting element.
  • The third surface is positioned below the upper surface of the light-emitting element.
  • The upper end of the light-reflective member is positioned below the upper surface of the wall portion.


Original Abstract Submitted

A light-emitting device includes a base member having a recess inside which a light-emitting element is disposed; and a light-reflective member continuously disposed on an upper surface of the bottom portion and at least a portion of an inner lateral surface of a wall portion inside the recess of the base member, in a cross-sectional view, the inner lateral surface of the wall portion having a first surface, a second surface located above the first surface, and a third surface connecting the first surface and the second surface, a shortest distance between the second surface and the light-emitting element being larger than a shortest distance between the first surface and the light-emitting element, the third surface being located below an upper surface of the light-emitting element, and an upper end of the light-reflective member being located below an upper surface of the wall portion.
