The invention provides an LED (
Light Emitting Diode) lamp filament and a manufacturing method thereof. An LED
chip is encapsulated on the edge top surface of a thin and long sheet
metal support of the
LED filament innovatively, meanwhile the sheet
metal is inserted into a preformed transparent plastic model frame to produce a
light source, and accordingly the automated
continuous production of the
LED lamp filament is implemented and the problem of the facing direction strength caused by the too thin and too long
metal support is solved due to the transparent plastic model frame; meanwhile the lateral direction strength of the metal support is effectively utilized and accordingly the integral
mechanical strength of the
LED lamp filament is ensured; the heat dissipation characteristics of the metal is directly utilized, meanwhile the heat dissipation efficiency of the LED
chip is maximized through the innovative encapsulation of thermal conductive coatings, and accordingly the problem of a heat dissipation
bottleneck of the
LED lamp filament is effectively solved, the LED lamp filament can work at the rated power for a long time, and the cost is reduced; the LED light extraction efficiency is improved, the
light attenuation is reduced, the high lighting effect and ambient light of lamp filament
light emission is implemented, and the market vacancy of the existing LED lamp filament is filled through innovative
fluorescence encapsulation materials.
