Abstract

An illuminant turbulent flow plate has a main panel, a pair of waterproof washers, a pair of periphery flanges disposed on two sides of the main panel, a pair of electric circuit boards, and a pair of side covers. A plurality of light emitting diodes are disposed on a periphery of each electric circuit board. Each periphery flange defines a recess to receive the corresponding electric circuit board. Two through holes are formed on two sides is of the main panel. Each waterproof washer encloses the corresponding periphery flange. Each side cover has a threaded hole and a periphery groove to receive the corresponding periphery flange. Each periphery flange has a threaded aperture. Each side cover engages with the corresponding periphery flange.
