Lighting apparatus

FIG. 1 is a top perspective view of a lighting apparatus of the present invention;

FIG. 2 is a front view thereof, the rear view being a mirror image thereof;

FIG. 3 is a left side view thereof, the right side view being a mirror image thereof;

FIG. 4 is a top view thereof;

FIG. 5 is a bottom view thereof; and,

FIG. 6 is a partial cross-sectional view thereof taken along line 6 — 6 of FIG. 4 .

Elongated elevations on a substrate are transparent and thus light comes through. Each elevation has a plate therein which has recesses in each of which a light source, such as an LED, is placed. The squares are electrodes.

Since all the elevations have the identical cross-sectional view, the cross-sectional view shown in FIG. 6 is taken from only one of the elevations.
