[0002] Track lights are a type of lighting device that installs lamps on tracks. In addition to providing lighting, they can also be flexibly used according to the various needs of users to create different decorative effects. Therefore, they are now widely used in shopping malls, exhibition halls, hotels and other places.
[0003] Track lights generally include a guide rail connector (external lamp) for guidance and a track head that is slidably connected to the guide rail connector. The track head is in electrical contact with the guide rail connector to obtain power for the lamp. Currently, LED track connectors on the market basically do not have a driving power supply, and are controlled by the external driving part of the track itself. Since multiple lamps are generally installed on the track, multiple lamps cannot be controlled individually, resulting in a single function; secondly, when installing the guide rail connector, misoperation or incorrect installation direction of the guide rail connector often occurs, which damages the guide rail connector, and therefore cannot meet the users' growing usage needs. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model more clear, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.
[0024] An ultra-thin integrated rail connector, referring to Figure 1-6 , including a guide rail connector 1 which is slidably inserted into an external powered track (not shown in the figure), the guide rail connector 1 contains a driving power source 8 and a track joint 6 which can rotate under force, and a lamp connecting joint 3 which is electrically connected to the driving power source 8 is installed at the bottom end of the guide rail connector 1. The driving power source 8 is separately integrated in the guide rail connector 1 and connected to the lamp (not shown in the figure), and each lamp can be separately controlled by its own driving power source 8, thereby increasing the overall functionality.
[0025] The connection joint 3 uses a thread or a snap-on method to implement the installation operation of the lamp, and the connection joint 3 has a built-in female connector that can be electrically connected to the lamp.
[0026] Furthermore, a disc 41 is integrally provided at the lower end of the track joint 6, and one side edge of the disc 41 protrudes upward to form a limit block 42. One end of the disc 41 also extends to form a switch handle 4 extending out of the guide rail connector 1. A slot 12 is provided on the guide rail connector 1 to accommodate the upper end of the limit block 42, and a push button 7 is provided just above the slot 12. If the guide rail connector 1 is accurately installed inside the energized track, the bottom wall on one side of the energized track presses the push button 7 and causes the limit block 42 to escape from the slot 12. A structure for preventing misoperation is provided on the guide rail connector 1. When it is not accurately installed inside the power-carrying track, a part of the limit block 42 is located in the slot 12. At this time, due to the limiting effect of the guide rail connector 1 itself, the switch handle 4 cannot be rotated to avoid the possibility of misoperation. When it is accurately installed, the bottom wall of the power-carrying track presses the push button 7 to remove the limit block 42 from the slot 12. At this time, the switch handle 4 can be rotated to complete the power-on operation to avoid the possibility of damaging the guide rail connector 1 due to misoperation. In addition, in order to prevent the possibility of reverse installation, a convex surface (not shown in the figure) that can press the push button 7 is set on the bottom wall of one side of the power-carrying track, and no convex surface is set on the other side.
[0027] The limiting block 42 is made of an elastic and insulating material, preferably plastic.
[0028] Furthermore, fixed hooks 62 and a plurality of connecting copper sheets 61 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the rail joint 6, which are compatible with the rail groove and electrode sheet in the external powered rail (not shown in the figure, but a part that needs to be equipped in the existing powered rail). When the fixed hooks 62 on the rail joint 6 are placed in the rail groove in the powered rail, the combination operation of the guide rail connector 1 and the powered rail can be completed. During the installation, the connecting copper sheet 61 and the electrode sheet are also combined together to complete the power connection operation, which can reduce the steps during installation. When it needs to be removed for maintenance, the switch handle 4 is toggled in the reverse direction to screw the fixed hooks 62 and the connecting copper sheet 61 into the guide rail connector 1, so that the guide rail connector 1 can be removed from the rail. The guide rail connector 1 can be installed and removed efficiently and conveniently without the need for tools.
[0029] In addition, the above design has the advantage of being able to adjust the extension distance of the fixing hook 62 and the connecting copper sheet 61 according to the different spacings of the rail grooves and electrode sheets, so that it is convenient to use with various rail structures of large and small sizes.
[0030] Furthermore, the connecting copper sheet 61 includes a live copper sheet and a neutral copper sheet. One end of the driving power supply 8 is provided with a connecting wire 81 electrically connected to the live copper sheet and the neutral copper sheet respectively. The connecting wire 81 includes a neutral wire and a live wire to meet the power connection operation of the driving power supply 8 itself.
[0031] Furthermore, a live wire connection knob 5 is provided on the lower side of the guide rail connector 1 .
[0032] Furthermore, the side wall of the driving power supply 8 is also provided with a power adjustment dial 2 electrically connected thereto, and the guide rail connector 1 is provided with a through slot for the power adjustment dial 2 to be embedded. By adding the power adjustment dial 2, the current can be adjusted according to different application environments to control the power of the lamp connected thereto, thereby being applicable to a variety of environments.
[0033] Furthermore, both ends of the guide rail connector 1 are provided with outwardly-protruding elastic clips 11. When the guide rail connector 1 is installed inside the track, the elastic clips 11 can assist in positioning the guide rail connector 1 inside the track through the rebound force of the elastic clips 11, so as to prevent the guide rail connector 1 from being displaced in position due to vibration or other influences.
[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
