[0029] In addition, it should also be noted that the term "comprise", "include" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that the process, method, article or equipment including a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed or inherent to such process, method, article or equipment.

[0030] The lighting system comprises a track system 100 and a light source assembly (not shown). The light source assembly is mechanically and electrically connected to the track system 100.

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1-2As shown, the track system 100 comprises at least two track segments 110 and at least one mechanical connector 120 connecting two adjacent track segments 110. Each track segment 110 comprises a track housing 1101. The mechanical connector 120 comprises a first connector 1201 and two second connectors 1202 corresponding to the at least two track segments 110. The track housing 1101 is provided with a first limiting part 1102. The second connector 1202 is provided with a second limiting part 1221. The two first limiting parts 1102 are respectively clamped with the corresponding second limiting parts 1221. Through the cooperation of the first limiting part 1102 and the second limiting part 1221, the quick connection and disassembly between the track segments 110 are realized.

[0032] The length direction of the track segment 110 (i.e. the splicing direction of the two track segments 110) is set as the x direction, and the height direction of the track segment 110 is set as the y direction, and the x direction and the y direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0033] In this embodiment, the track system 100 comprises two track segments 110 and one mechanical connector 120.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown, the first connector 1201 is respectively clamped with the two track housings 1101. The track housing 1101 comprises a bottom wall 1111 and side walls 1112 arranged on both sides of the bottom wall 1111. The bottom wall 1111 and the side walls 1112 surround to form a mounting groove 1113, and the side wall 1112 is provided with a clamping groove 1121.

[0035] Specifically, the first connector 1201 comprises a bottom plate 1211 and side plates 1212 arranged on both sides of the bottom plate 1211. The first connector 1201 is inserted into the mounting groove 1113. At this time, the bottom plate 1211 abuts against the bottom wall 1111, and the side plate 1212 abuts against the clamping groove 1121, so as to limit the first connector 1201 in the y direction in the track housing 1101, prevent it from shaking or shifting in the y direction in the track housing 1101, thereby enhancing the structural stability of the entire track system 100.

[0036] Please refer to Figures 4-5 As shown, the two second connectors 1202 are arranged on the first connector 1201 and are rotationally connected with the first connector 1201. The first connector 1201 comprises a first bending part 1213. In this embodiment, the first bending part 1213 is protruded on the bottom plate 1211. The second connector 1202 comprises a top plate 1222 and a second bending part 1223 arranged on the side edge of the top plate 1222 and corresponding to the first bending part 1213. The second bending part 1223 can rotate relative to the first bending part 1213.

[0037] Specifically, the mechanical connector 120 comprises a rotating shaft 1203. One end of the rotating shaft 1203 is provided with an anti-disengagement part 1231, and the other end is provided with a through hole 1232. The first bending part 1213 and the second bending part 1223 are both provided with a rotating hole 1204 for the rotating shaft 1203 to pass through. The end of the rotating shaft 1203 provided with the through hole 1232 is inserted into the rotating holes 1204 of the first bending part 1213 and the second bending part 1223 in sequence, and then an open pin 1233 is inserted into the through hole 1232, the head of the open pin 1233 is bent, and the open pin 1233 is ensured not to disengage from the through hole 1232. By means of the anti-disengagement parts 1231 at both ends of the rotating shaft 1203 and the open pin 1233, the rotating shaft 1203 is limited in the rotating hole 1204 and is ensured not to disengage from the rotating hole 1204. Finally, the second bending part 1223 can rotate around the rotating shaft 1203 relative to the first bending part 1213.

[0038] In another embodiment, one of the first bending part 1213 and the second bending part 1223 is provided with a rotating hole 1204, and the other is provided with a protruding shaft (not shown) arranged towards the rotating hole 1204, and the protruding shaft is rotationally connected to the rotating hole 1204. In this case, the rotating shaft 1203 does not need to be separately provided, and the relative rotation of the first bending part 1213 and the second bending part 1223 can be realized.

[0039] The second connecting piece 1202 further comprises a pressing part 1224 arranged at one end of the top plate 1222 away from the first limiting part 1102. The entire second connecting piece 1202 is driven to rotate around the rotating shaft 1203 by manually pressing the pressing part 1224.

[0040] Further, the second connecting piece 1202 further comprises a pulling part 1225 arranged close to the first limiting part 1102. As an example, the pulling part 1225 provided in the embodiment can be a slot arranged on the top plate 1222. A person's hand is inserted into the pulling part 1225 to pull the pulling part 1225, which can drive the second connecting piece 1202 to rotate around the rotating shaft 1203.

[0041] In the embodiment, both the pressing part 1224 and the pulling part 1225 are provided, and when the track section 110 is installed and disassembled, there are double choices. In other embodiments, only any one of the pressing part 1224 and the pulling part 1225 can be provided, and the rotation of the second connecting piece 1202 can be realized.

[0042] The mechanical connector 120 further comprises an elastic member 1205. One of the first connecting member 1201 and the second connecting member 1202 is provided with a protruding rib 1214, and the other is provided with a positioning hole 1226 corresponding to the protruding rib 1214. The elastic member 1205 is sleeved on the protruding rib 1214 and located between the first connecting member 1201 and the second connecting member 1202. In the embodiment, the protruding rib 1214 is arranged on the first connecting member 1201, and the positioning hole 1226 is arranged on the second connecting member 1202. In other embodiments, the positioning hole 1226 can also not be made into a through hole, but a groove structure, and the end of the protruding rib 1214 just extends into the groove, which can also achieve the positioning connection of the first connecting member 1201 and the second connecting member 1202.

[0043] Due to the presence of the elastic member 1205, the second connecting member 1202 is elastically rotatable relative to the first connecting member 1201. When the pressing part 1224 or the pulling part 1225 is actuated, the elastic member 1205 is compressed, the pressing part 1224 moves towards the bottom wall 1111, and the pulling part 1225 moves away from the bottom wall 1111. After the hand is released, the second connecting member 1202 is reset under the action of the elastic member 1205 and the elastic force.

[0044] The first limiting part 1102 is a protrusion arranged in the mounting groove 1113 of the track shell 1101. The second limiting part 1221 is a baffle arranged at the end of the top plate 1222 and facing the first limiting part 1102. Through the clamping cooperation of the first limiting part 1102 and the second limiting part 1221, the first connecting member 1201 is limited in the track shell 1101 in the x direction, and finally the mechanical connection of the two track sections 110 is realized.

[0045] In the embodiment, the protrusion is arranged on the bottom wall 1111, and the second connecting member 1202 is connected to the bottom plate 1211 of the first connecting member 1201. In other embodiments, the protrusion can also be arranged on the side wall 1112, and correspondingly, the second connecting member 1202 is connected to the side plate 1212 of the first connecting member 1201. When the two track sections 110 are connected, the first limiting part 1102 and the second limiting part 1221 are clamped and cooperated on the side wall 1112 of the track shell.

[0046] The first connecting piece 1201 is provided with an avoiding part 1215 corresponding to the position of the first limiting part 1102. In this embodiment, the avoiding part 1215 is a slot extending along the x direction and configured on the bottom plate 1211. When installed in place, the first limiting part 1102 is located between the second limiting part 1221 and the avoiding part 1215. That is, when installed in place, the protrusion (i.e., the first limiting part 1102) on the bottom wall 1111 of the track shell 1101 is placed in the slot, and the vertical baffle (i.e., the second limiting part 1221) abuts against the track shell 1101 in the retreat direction to limit the retreat of the protrusion along the x direction. The clamping design of the first limiting part 1102 and the second limiting part 1221 ensures a firm connection between the track segments 110 and is not easy to loosen or fall off. When a certain track segment 110 or mechanical connector 120 fails, it can be quickly disassembled and replaced, reducing maintenance cost and difficulty.

[0047] In the case where the first connecting piece 1201 is clamped with two track shells 1101, the second connecting piece 1202 has a first rotation position and a second rotation position.

[0048] In the first rotation position, the projection of the first limiting part 1102 and its corresponding second limiting part 1221 in the x direction has no overlap. That is, the second limiting part 1221 does not limit the movement of the track shell 1101 in the movement direction, so the first limiting part 1102 on the track shell 1101 can slide into or out of the slot of the bottom plate 1211 of the first connecting piece 1201.

[0049] In the second rotation position, the projection of the first limiting part 1102 and its corresponding second limiting part 1221 in the x direction at least partially overlaps. Due to the overlap, the second limiting part 1221 limits the movement of the track shell 1101 in the movement direction, so the first limiting part 1102 on the track shell is blocked by the second limiting part 1221 and is limited in the slot of the bottom plate 1211 of the first connecting piece 1201.

[0050] When disassembling two track segments 110, first press the pressing part 1224 or the pulling part 1225, the elastic member 1205 is compressed, the second connecting piece 1202 rotates around the rotating shaft 1203, the second limiting part 1221 moves away from the bottom wall 1111 until the projection of the first limiting part 1102 and its corresponding second limiting part 1221 in the x direction has no overlap, that is, the two track segments 110 can be pulled apart to realize the separation of the track segments 110.

[0051] When connecting two track sections 110, first, the first connecting piece 1201 and the two second connecting pieces 1202 are assembled into a complete mechanical connector 120, one end of the side plate 1212 of the first connecting piece 1201 is inserted into the clamping groove 1121 of one of the track housings 1101, the pressing part 1224 or the pulling part 1225 of the second connecting piece 1202 on the connected side is touched, the elastic piece 1205 on the side is compressed, the position of the first limiting part 1102 is found, the first limiting part 1102 is placed into the slot in the bottom plate 1211 of the first connecting piece 1201, then the hand is loosened so that the elastic piece 1205 rebounds, the other end of the side plate 1212 of the first connecting piece 1201 is inserted into the clamping groove 1121 of the other track housing 1101, and the pressing part 1224 or the pulling part 1225 on the side is also touched to place the first limiting part 1102 into the slot in the bottom plate 1211 of the first connecting piece 1201, finally, it is ensured that the two first limiting parts 1102 are located between the two second limiting parts 1221, the projection of the first limiting part 1102 and the corresponding second limiting part 1221 in the x direction at least partially overlaps, and the two track sections 110 are limited in the x direction, indicating that the two track sections 110 are connected in place.

[0052] It can be understood that there is a certain assembly gap between the first limiting part 1102 and the second limiting part 1221, and further, there is also the assembly gap between the two track sections 110, which is within the allowable range.

[0053] The track system 100 further includes a conductive strip 130 located in the mounting groove 1113. The conductive strip 130 stably supplies power to the light source assembly. Since the related content of the conductive strip 130 has been disclosed in the prior art, in order to avoid redundancy, this embodiment will not be described again.

[0054] In summary, the track system 100 of the utility model sets up the second connecting piece 1202 which can be elastically rotated relative to the first connecting piece 1201 around the rotation shaft 1203, so that the first limiting part 1102 and the second limiting part 1221 are clamped and separated, and the connection and disassembly of the two track sections 110 are easily realized.

[0055] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the utility model and not to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the utility model can be modified or replaced equivalently without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the utility model.
