It is understood that a power module 300 is inserted into the power rail 100 and disposed in the power slot 101. Specifically, the power module 300 is electrically connected to the conductive component 102. Referring to the accompanying drawings, the conductive component 102 is strip-shaped and arranged along the length of the power slot 101. The power module 300 can achieve conductivity by being installed at any position in the power slot 101.

[0029] Specifically, two conductive components 102 are provided, respectively disposed on two opposite sidewalls of the power slot 101, serving as the positive and negative terminals. Referring to the accompanying drawings, elastic conductive structures 301 are provided on both sides of the power module 300, with two elastic conductive structures 301 respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the power module 300. These elastic conductive structures 301 are in contact with the conductive components 102 and are conductive. The elastic conductive structures 301 are configured as metal springs or pins. In some examples, the elastic conductive structures 301 are copper conductive contacts.

[0030] Referring to the attached drawings, the side wall of the power slot 101 is provided with a first groove, which is arranged along the length of the power slot 101.

The soft support structure is made of rubber or silicone and can fit tightly against the inner wall of the first groove.

[0032] Furthermore, the power distribution track includes a magnetic suction component 103, to which the power module 300 is connected, preventing the power module 300 from becoming loose. The magnetic suction component 103 is made of permanent magnet material and is configured as a strip structure. It is arranged along the length of the power slot 101, allowing the power module 300 to be magnetically secured at any position within the power slot 101. In some examples, two magnetic suction components 103 are provided, arranged parallel to each other in the power slot 101.

[0033] Referring to the attached drawings, the magnetic suction component 103 is located at the bottom of the power slot 101. A second slot is provided at the bottom of the power slot 101. The second slot is arranged along the length direction of the power slot 101. The magnetic suction component 103 is inserted into the second slot and is engaged with the side wall of the second slot. A limit stop is provided on the inner side of the side wall of the second slot.

[0034] Understandably, the power rail 100 is mounted on the wall; specifically, the power rail 100 is embedded in the wall. Furthermore, the power rail 100 is secured to the wall by multiple screws or pins. Referring to the accompanying drawings, the bottom of the power slot 101 has a through hole.

[0035] To prevent the power module 300 from loosening and falling off, the power rail 100 is provided with a snap-fit ​​structure 104. The snap-fit ​​structure 104 is located at the bottom of the power slot 101. The power module 300 is fixed to the snap-fit ​​structure 104.

[0039] Furthermore, the power module 300 is provided with a toggle member 303, which is located at the end of the power module 300. The toggle member 303 is connected to the telescopic structure 302. The connection between the toggle member 303 and the telescopic structure 302 passes through the wall of the end of the power module 300, and the toggle member 303 is movable, thereby moving the telescopic structure 302 by applying force to the toggle member 303.

[0040] In some examples, the surface of the actuating component 303 is provided with a structure to increase friction; specifically, the surface of the actuating component 303 is provided with ridges, bumps, or ripples.

[0041] Referring to the attached diagram, the snap-fit ​​structure 104 is positioned off-center at the bottom of the power slot 101, thereby preventing the power module 300 from being installed backwards.

[0042] Regarding the location of the snap-fit ​​structure 104, as an alternative, it can also be designed as follows: the snap-fit ​​structure 104 is located on the side wall of the power slot 101, and further, the snap-fit ​​structure 104 forms a slot on the side wall of the power slot 101 for the telescopic structure 302 to be inserted.

[0043] As one implementation, the power distribution track includes a cover plate 200, which is connected to the power rail 100. The cover plate 200 is used to seal the open area of ​​the power slot 101. Specifically, the cover plate 200 can be installed where the power module 300 is not installed on the power rail 100 to prevent accidental contact or foreign objects from being inserted into the power rail 100, and also to improve the appearance and neatness of the power distribution track surface.

[0044] Furthermore, the inner wall of the power slot 101 is provided with a stepped portion, which abuts against the cover plate 200 so that the surface of the cover plate 200 is flush with the surface of the power rail. In some examples, the outer wall of the first slot body forms a stepped portion on the inner wall of the power slot 101.
