Abstract
A light emitting diode illumination device includes an LED illumination tube having a light transmission plate, an LED element provided in the tube, light reflecting members extending toward a main light irradiation direction symmetrically or asymmetrically with respect to a center line of the LED element, and light intensity and distribution control means for controlling intensity and distribution of a light irradiated from the LED element. The light reflecting member may include a light transmissive member to control the light intensity and distribution. The illumination device may further include light confining means for confining the light emitted from the LED element in a space between the light transmission plate and the light reflecting member and emitting the confined light to the outside of the LED illumination tube through the light transmission plate.
