LED tube lamp
First Claim
1. A light-emitting diode (LED) tube lamp, comprising:
- a tube comprising two end regions, two transition regions, and a main body region, the two end regions are at two opposite ends of the main body region, each of the two transition regions are respectively between a respective end region and the main body region;
two end caps, each having at least one pin, and each coupled to a respective end of the tube;
a power supply disposed in one of the end caps, or disposed in a separated manner in the two end caps; and
an LED light strip disposed inside the tube and having a plurality of LED light sources mounted thereon, the LED light sources being electrically connected to the power supply by the LED light strip;
wherein the LED light strip comprises a bendable circuit sheet or a flexible circuit board passing through at least a first of the two transition regions of the tube and disposed with a soldering pad at an end of the bendable circuit sheet or flexible circuit board, and the power supply comprises a printed circuit board disposed with a soldering pad corresponding to the soldering pad of the bendable circuit sheet or flexible circuit board, and the soldering pad of the bendable circuit sheet or flexible circuit board is electrically connected to the soldering pad of the printed circuit board of the power supply to provide electrical connection between the power supply and the LED light sources.

Abstract
An LED tube lamp is provided herein, which implements the safety function for protecting the user from electric shock since it conducts only when both ends thereof have been correctly installed into a lamp socket. The LED tube lamp includes an installation detection module configured in the LED tube lamp to detect an installation state between the LED tube lamp and the lamp socket. The installation detection module includes: a detection pulse generating module, configured to generate a first pulse signal; a detection result latching circuit, configured to receive and output the first pulse signal; a switch circuit, configured to receive the first pulse signal from the detection result latching circuit, and configured to maintain a conductive state of the switch circuit during the first pulse to cause a power loop of the LED tube lamp to be conductive; and a detection determining circuit, configured to detect a first sampling signal on the power loop so as to determine the installation state between the LED tube lamp and the lamp socket.
