Abstract (en)

The light bulb contains a transparent body member and a contact member at an end of the body member that could be screwed into a conventional light bulb socket for establishing electrical connections. Inside the transparent member, there arc a number of circuit boards, each having a circular end and a rectangular body. Around the circumference of a side of the circular end, a number of LEDs are provided at appropriate spacing to project light towards various centrifugal directions, respectively. The circuit boards intersect with each other along a vertical direction so as to form a cross shape, a star shape, or a similar, radiating-from-a-center shape.
