[0022] The technical solution of the utility model is described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a flexible guide rail assembly described in the utility model includes a flexible conductive belt 1 and a base 2, and a tightening assembly is provided on the base 2, and the end of the flexible conductive belt 1 is connected with the tightening assembly. The flexible conductive belt 1 is equivalent to a cable for transmitting electricity, and the difference is that the flexible conductive belt 1 can be used to mount lamps and adjust the installation position of lamps, thus playing the role of a track. The two ends of the flexible conductive belt 1 are fixed on the wall or ceiling or the ground. For example, a base 2 is provided on each of two opposite walls, and a plurality of fixing screws 29 are provided on the base 2. The two ends of the flexible conductive belt 1 are respectively connected to the corresponding base 2, and the ends of the flexible conductive belt 1 are fixed by the tightening assembly. Then, the length of the flexible conductive belt 1 is adjusted to form a track for hanging lamps.

[0024] Furthermore, if Figure 5 As shown, the utility model further comprises a plurality of hangers 4, and the hangers 4 are provided with fixing holes 41 and belt-threading openings 42. The plurality of hangers 4 are used to be installed on the ceiling or at the corner between the ceiling and the wall, and the flexible conductive belt 1 can be bent through the belt-threading openings 42, so that the flexible conductive belt 1 can be laid along the ceiling and the wall, so that the base 2 can be fixed on the ground for easy installation, and the flexible conductive belt 1 can form a horizontal and vertical conductive track in the space.

[0025] The tightening assembly includes a bracket 21, a first clamping arm 22 and a second clamping arm 23. The bracket 21 is fixedly connected to the base 2. The first clamping arm 22 is rotatably connected to the bracket 21, and a torsion spring 24 is provided between the first clamping arm 22 and the bracket 21. The second clamping arm 23 is rotatably connected to the bracket 21, and a torsion spring 24 is provided between the second clamping arm 23 and the bracket 21. The two torsion springs 24 respectively drive the first clamping arm 22 and the second clamping arm 23 to clamp and connect the flexible conductive belt 1. The first clamping arm 22 and the second clamping arm 23 are used to clamp the flexible conductive belt 1. During installation, the first clamping arm 22 and the second clamping arm 23 are stretched open so that the end of the flexible conductive belt 1 passes through the first clamping arm 22 and the second clamping arm 23. After the flexible conductive belt 1 is straightened and tightened, the first clamping arm 22 and the second clamping arm 23 clamp the flexible conductive belt 1 so that its end is fixed on the base 2, and the excess flexible conductive belt 1 can be cut.

[0026] The tightening assembly also includes an anti-skid roller 25. The first clamping arm 22 and the second clamping arm 23 are both provided with a rotatable anti-skid roller 25. The surface of the anti-skid roller 25 is provided with anti-skid teeth. The flexible conductive belt 1 is passed between the two anti-skid rollers 25. The first clamping arm 22 is provided with a backstop mechanism, which is connected with the anti-skid roller 25. For the convenience of installation and use, when the flexible conductive belt 1 passes through the first clamping arm 22 and the second clamping arm 23, pulling the flexible conductive belt 1 can drive the anti-skid roller 25 to rotate, so that the flexible conductive belt 1 can be better straightened and tightened. Finally, the backstop mechanism can prevent the anti-skid roller 25 from reversing, so that the flexible conductive belt 1 is fixed on the base 2.

[0027] The anti-retraction mechanism includes an anti-retraction hook 26, which is rotatably connected to the first clamping arm 22, a gear 27 is provided on the anti-slip roller 25, and an anti-retraction spring 28 is provided between the anti-retraction hook 26 and the first clamping arm 22, and the anti-retraction spring 28 drives the anti-retraction hook 26 to engage with the gear 27. The anti-retraction hook 26 and the gear 27 are one-way meshing, that is, when the flexible conductive belt 1 passes through the anti-slip roller 25, the gear 27 can rotate forward, which is convenient for straightening and tightening the flexible conductive belt 1. When the flexible conductive belt 1 is fixed in place, the anti-retraction hook 26 engages with the gear 27 to prevent it from turning over, thereby locking the anti-slip roller 25, and the flexible conductive belt 1 is fixed on the base 2 through the friction between the anti-slip teeth and the flexible conductive belt 1, and the clamping force between the first clamping arm 22 and the second clamping arm 23.

[0028] The base 2 is provided with a cover 3, a cavity is formed between the cover 3 and the base 2, and the tightening assembly is arranged in the cavity; the upper end of the cover 3 is provided with a socket 31, and the end of the flexible conductive belt 1 passes through the socket 31 to be connected with the tightening assembly. The cover 3 can play a role in waterproofing and dustproofing, and the end of the flexible conductive belt 1 is encapsulated inside to ensure electrical safety. Of course, the end of the flexible conductive belt 1 can be treated with a sheath or conventional anti-leakage measures after cutting.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, so all equivalent changes or modifications made according to the structure, features and principles described in the scope of the present utility model patent application are included in the scope of the present utility model patent application.
