DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0027] The following describes in detail embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0028] The utility model relates to a track connector, comprising a first base body 100 and a second base body 200.
[0029] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the space where the track connector is located has a first direction and a second direction, and the first direction and the second direction intersect or are perpendicular to each other. In this embodiment, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other. In the illustrated direction, the first direction is the up-down direction, and the second direction is the front-back direction. The first base 100 and the second base 200 are detachably fastened together along the first direction. After the first base 100 and the second base 200 are connected, a slot 400 is defined therebetween. The slot 400 extends through the first base 100 and the second base 200 from front to back along the second direction. A first conductive terminal 510 is mounted on the upper side wall of the slot 400, and a second conductive terminal 520 is mounted on the lower side wall of the slot 400. That is, the first conductive terminal 510 and the second conductive terminal 520 are distributed vertically along the first direction. The first conductive terminal 510 and the second conductive terminal 520 can be conductive column structures with a certain degree of elasticity.
[0030] In actual use, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the track connector is used in conjunction with the track bar 300. The vertical cross-section of the track bar 300 matches the shape of the slot 400, and conductive bars 310 are installed on the upper and lower edges of the track bar 300. During installation, the first base 100 and the second base 200 can be first interlocked, and then the track bar 300 can be passed through the slot 400 in the second direction. Alternatively, the first base 100 and the second base 200 can be disassembled, and then the first base 100 can be inserted downward from the top of the track bar 300 and the second base 200 can be inserted upward from the bottom of the track bar 300. The track bar 300 is then directly inserted into the slot 400 formed by the first base 100 and the second base 200. After installation, the first conductive terminal 510 abuts the conductive bar 310 on the upper side of the track bar 300, and the second conductive terminal 520 abuts the conductive bar 310 on the lower side of the track bar 300, thereby achieving electrical connection. The first conductive terminal 510 and the second conductive terminal 520 can be connected to an external power supply device through a wire or other conductive structure. The external power supply supplies power to the conductive bar 310 on the track bar 300 through the first conductive terminal 510 and the second conductive terminal 520 on the track connector. The track connector can also slide along the track bar 300 and maintain electrical connection. When disassembly is required, it is only necessary to release the first base body 100 and the second base body 200 from the buckle, and then remove it from any position of the track bar 300. Other electrical components such as track lights can be installed on the track bar 300. The overall structure of the track connector is simple, and it is very convenient to load, unload and use. The track connector can also be directly connected to other electrical appliances such as some lamps or electrical connectors through wires.
[0031] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the second base 200 is provided with two posts 210 extending upward along the first direction. The two posts 210 are parallel to each other, with a spacer 220 between them. The spacer 220 extends forward and backward along the second direction, is open upward, and has a closed bottom. The second conductive terminal 520 is mounted on the closed bottom surface of the spacer 220. The first base 100 is provided with a cavity 110, which opens toward the second base 200, i.e., it is open downward. The upper inner wall of the cavity 110 is a closed surface, and the first conductive terminal 510 is mounted on the upper side of the cavity 110. Notches 120 are defined on the front and rear sidewalls of the cavity 110, with two notches 120 distributed front to back along the second direction. The two posts 210 are inserted upward into the cavity 110 along the first direction. The front and rear ends of the spacers 220 align with the notches 120 on either side, i.e., the two notches 120 and the spacers 220 are connected front to back in the second direction, thereby forming the aforementioned slots 400. During installation, the first base 100 is positioned downwardly against the upper side of the track bar 300 through the notches 120 on both sides, and the second base 200 is positioned upwardly against the lower side of the track bar 300 through the spacers 220, and then the upper and lower parts are buckled together.
[0032] Furthermore, a third conductive terminal 530 is provided on the upper end surface of one of the pillars 210. The third conductive terminal 530 can be configured as a conductive pillar structure with a certain degree of elasticity. A conductive sheet 540 is installed in the first base 100. The conductive sheet 540 and the first conductive terminal 510 can be connected directly to each other or via a wire. A through hole 130 is provided on the inner wall of the cavity 110, and the conductive sheet 540 covers the location of the through hole 130 in the first direction. After the pillar 210 is inserted into the cavity 110, the third conductive terminal 530 is inserted upward through the through hole 130, and then the upper end of the third conductive terminal 530 abuts against the conductive sheet 540. The wire is then led out through the third conductive terminal 530 and the wire led out from the second conductive terminal 520. Both wires can be led out of the second base 200 and connected to an external power supply device. This can regulate the layout of the wires. A wire threading hole 230 can be provided in the second base 200. In this embodiment, a threading hole 230 is formed on the lower end surface of the second base 200. The second conductive terminal 520 and the third conductive terminal 530 are connected to different wires, respectively. Each wire is led downward from the interior of the second base 200 through the threading hole 230.
[0033] Furthermore, two through holes 130 can be provided on the upper inner wall of the cavity 110, and the two through holes 130 are arranged symmetrically. When the pillar 210 is inserted into the cavity 110, the pillar 210 with the third conductive terminal 530 can pass through the currently aligned through hole 130 and abut against the conductive sheet 540, regardless of which through hole 130 it is aligned with, thereby achieving a foolproof installation effect.
[0034] In this embodiment, the cavity 110 is cylindrical, and the circumferential contours of the two pillars 210 are on the same circumference. The cavity 110 is adapted to the outer contours of the two pillars 210.
[0035] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, a shoulder 211 is provided on the column 210. When the column 210 is inserted into the cavity 110, the end edge of the first seat body 100 can abut against the shoulder 211, thereby limiting the insertion stroke when the first seat body 100 and the second seat body 200 are docked with each other.
[0036] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a spring buckle 610 is provided on the first base body 100 , and a clamping head 620 is provided on the second base body 200 . The first base body 100 and the second base body 200 are buckled together by the clamping head 620 and the spring buckle 610 .
[0037] Specifically, two latches 140 are provided on the upper part of the first base body 100, and the latches 140 are connected to the cavity 110. A spring catch 610 is installed on each latch 140. The spring catch 610 can be a combination of a latch and a spring. The two spring catches 610 can move elastically relative to each other. In this embodiment, the two spring catches 610 tend to be relatively far away from each other under normal conditions. Two clamping heads 620 are provided on the second base body 200, which can be clamping heads 620 extending from the upper end surface of each column 210. The clamping heads 620 extend upward in a barb shape along the first direction. During installation, the column 210 is inserted upward into the cavity 110, and the clamping heads 620 are aligned one by one with the latches 140. After the clamping heads 620 pass upward through the latches 140, they are matched and connected with the spring catches 610 one by one. During disassembly, the two spring buckles 610 are moved closer together, and the spring buckles 610 can be separated from the clamping head 620 , thereby separating the first base body 100 and the second base body 200 from each other.
