Patent attributes
An LED lamp includes a heat sink and an LED module. The heat sink includes a body, a plurality of radial partition fins extending evenly from an outer periphery of the body and a curved wall surrounding lower portions of the fins. The fins, the outer periphery of the body and the wall together define a plurality of channels each having a lower opening and a top opening. The LED module includes a plurality of LEDs and is received in the absorbing portion of the body. The LED module is supported by the absorbing portion of the body of the heat sink. Heat generated by the LEDs is transferred to the fins via the body. From the fins, the heat is dissipated to air. The channels each function as a chimney for accelerating heated air to flow upwardly through the fins.
