First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A spread light lens, comprising: a plurality of optical axes, the optical axes been arrange in a line; a light incidence surface being perpendicular to the optical axes; a first convex light emitting surface arranged at interval with the light incidence surface, a radius of curvature of a profile of the first convex light emitting surface on a cross section taken along the optical axes increasing gradually towards a direction which is far away from the optical axes; and a second convex light emitting surface arranged at interval with the light incidence surface, the first, second convex light emitting surfaces been arranged at both sides of the optical axes, a radius of curvature of a profile of the second convex light emitting surface on the cross section taken along the optical axes decreasing gradually towards the direction which is far away from the optical axes, the radius of curvature of the profile of the first convex light emitting surface being larger than that of the second convex light emitting surface on the cross section taken along the optical axes. 2 . The spread light lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein on the cross section taken along the optical axes, a projection of the first convex light emitting surface on the light incidence surface has larger length than that of the second convex light emitting surface on the light incidence surface. 3 . The spread light lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the optical axes are arranged at identical interval. 4 . The spread light lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the profile of the first convex light emitting surface on the cross section comprises a plurality of arcs whose radius of curvature is arithmetic progression. 5 . The spread light lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the profile of the second convex light emitting surface on the cross section comprises a plurality of arcs whose radius of curvature is arithmetic progression. 6 . The spread light lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the profile of the first convex light emitting surface on the cross section is of 21 mm to 29 mm, the profile of the second convex light emitting surface on the cross section is of 15 mm to 20 mm. 7 . An LED strip light, comprising: a strip-typed holder; a plurality of LED chips arranged on the strip-typed holder along length direction thereof; and a spread light lens arranged on the emergent light of the LED chips, comprising: a plurality of optical axes, the optical axes been arrange in a line; a light incidence surface being perpendicular to the optical axes; a first convex light emitting surface arranged at interval with the light incidence surface, a radius of curvature of a profile of the first convex light emitting surface on a cross section taken along the optical axes increasing gradually towards a direction which is far away from the optical axes; and a second convex light emitting surface arranged at interval with the light incidence surface, the first, second convex light emitting surfaces been arranged at both sides of the optical axes, a radius of curvature of a profile of the second convex light emitting surface on the cross section taken along the optical axes decreasing gradually towards the direction which is far away from the optical axes, the radius of curvature of the profile of the first convex light emitting surface being larger than that of the second convex light emitting surface on the cross section taken along the optical axes; wherein an emitting light of the first convex light emitting surface illuminate an illuminated area which is closer to the LED strip light, an emitting light of the second convex light emitting surface illuminate an illuminated area which is father to the LED strip light. 8 . The LED strip light as claimed in claim 7 , wherein each of the LED chips comprises an LED optical axis, the LED optical axis is overlapped with one of the optical axes. 9 . The LED strip light as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the LED strip light further comprises a printed circuit board configured for disposing the LED chips, and a base configured for mounted the strip-typed holder. 10 . The LED strip light as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the strip-typed holder comprises a plug and a step, the base comprises a slot for containing the plug, and an arm for supporting the step. 11 . The LED strip light as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the base further comprises an anti-glare bar along the length direction of the strip-typed holder. 12 . The LED strip light as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the base further comprises an assembling surface, an angle of the assembling surface and the optical axes is of 45 degrees to 75 degrees.
