[0045] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the utility model more clear, the utility model is described in detail below by combining with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0046] Referring to Figures 1 to 15 The utility model discloses a track system, including track module 100 and the load device (not shown) assembled to track module 100. Load device includes but is not limited to lamps and lanterns, sensor, power supply etc. Track module 100 includes at least two track sections 10 and at least one electric connector group 20. Electric connector group 20 can realize the electrical connection between two adjacent track sections 10, and then make the load device assembled to track section 10 power on. Users can set multiple track sections 10 according to demand, and splice multiple track sections 10 through electric connector group 20, so that the layout of track system can be reasonably planned according to the size of space. And, the splicing shape of multiple track sections 10 can be flexibly designed according to the installation environment. For example, linear, rectangular, square, etc.

[0047] Each track section 10 includes a mechanical guide rail 11 and a power rail 12 located in the mechanical guide rail 11. Each mechanical guide rail 11 is provided with an assembly groove 113 for installing the power rail 12. The load device is installed on the mechanical guide rail 11 and electrically connected with the power rail 12. Since the power rail 12 is arranged in the mechanical guide rail 11, the length direction, width direction and height direction of the two are the same. For ease of description, the longitudinal direction of the mechanical guide rail 11 is defined as the first direction, and the height direction is defined as the second direction. The width direction is the third direction. The first direction, the second direction and the third direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0048] As Figure 3 The mechanical guide rail 11 is used to be installed on the wall or ceiling of a building, generally made of metal. The mechanical guide rail 11 includes a bottom wall 111 and two side walls 112 arranged on both sides of the bottom wall 111 along the length direction. The assembly groove 113 is formed between the bottom wall 111 and the side wall 112. In this embodiment, the assembly groove 113 is approximately U-shaped. In this way, the track as a whole is strip-shaped, which is more convenient to hold and install. The assembly groove 113 has a downward installation opening. The power rail 12 is installed into the assembly groove 113 of the mechanical guide rail 11 from the installation opening. Further, the two side walls 112 of the mechanical guide rail 11 are protruded to form an abutting protrusion 114 in the assembly groove 113 at the end close to the bottom wall 111. The abutting protrusion 114 is used to fix and connect the power rail 12, so that the power rail 12 can be installed into the assembly groove 113 of the mechanical guide rail 11 without tools.

[0049] As Figure 4As shown, the power rail 12 comprises a carrier 121 having a first side and a second side. The first side and the second side are oppositely arranged, and the first side is arranged towards the bottom wall 111, and the second side is arranged away from the mechanical rail 11 and towards the mounting opening. The carrier 121 is provided with abutting portions 124 for clamping with the abutting protrusions 114 of the mechanical rail 11, so as to fix the power rail 12 into the assembly groove 113 of the mechanical rail 11. When the two abutting portions 124 are clamped onto the two abutting protrusions 114, the boss 125 protruding on the first side abuts against the bottom wall 111, so as to install the power rail 12 onto the mechanical rail 11 in a tool-free manner. In other embodiments, the power rail 12 can also be installed onto the mechanical rail 11 in other manners. For example, screws or welding, etc., which are not limited by the present application.

[0050] The carrier 121 is provided with a plurality of profiles 122 protruding on the second side and a plurality of electric conductors 123 arranged on the profiles 122. Specifically, the plurality of profiles 122 are arranged on the second side and extend away from the first side. Among them, the carrier 121 and the profiles 122 are both made of insulating materials, for example, plastics. The electric conductors 123 are made of conductive metal materials, for example, copper or copper alloy. In the present embodiment, the carrier 121, the profiles 122 and the electric conductors 123 all extend in the first direction. The carrier 121, the profiles 122 and the electric conductors 123 are integrally injection molded or extruded. In this way, the process is reduced and the cost is lowered.

[0051] In the present embodiment, the power rail 12 is integrally arranged in a comb shape. The profiles 122 are arranged at intervals along the third direction. In the third direction, a gap is formed between two adjacent profiles 122. The side of the profile 122 facing the gap is provided with a groove 1221 for accommodating the electric conductor 123. A plurality of electric conductors 123 are arranged in the corresponding grooves 1221, respectively, so as to take power on the side in the gap. The profile 122 is provided with at least one groove 1221. The groove 1221 is configured on the side of each profile 122. The groove 1221 communicates with the gap. The grooves 1221 on the two adjacent profiles 122 facing the same gap are staggered with each other. The electric conductor 123 is accommodated in the groove 1221 and is at least exposed to the gap, so as to realize the electrical connection with the electric connector set 20 or the load device.

[0052] In the embodiment, each profile 122 is provided with two grooves 1221 having opposite opening directions and height difference. That is, the two grooves 1221 having opposite opening directions are staggered with each other in the second direction. One of the grooves 1221 opens towards the gap, and the other groove 1221 opens away from the gap. The two grooves 1221 on the adjacent profiles 122 and having the same distance from the carrier 121 have the same opening direction. The electrical conductor 123 is arranged in the groove 1221. Therefore, the connecting line between the electrical conductors 123 having the same distance from the carrier 121 is a straight line, and the situation of disordered circuit can be avoided. In the embodiment, the electrical conductors 123 are arranged in two rows. Of course, in other optional embodiments, the electrical conductors 123 can be arranged in one row or multiple rows according to specific requirements, and a single groove 1221 or multiple grooves 1221 communicating with the gap for mounting the electrical conductor 123 are arranged on each profile 122, which is not limited.

[0053] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 6 Each electrical connector group 20 includes two connectors connected in a matching manner, and the two connectors include a first connector 21 and a second connector 22. The first connector 21 and the second connector 22 are arranged on two adjacent track segments 10. Specifically, the first connector 21 is pivotally connected to one of the track segments 10, so that the first connector 21 can be pivoted to be inserted into the corresponding power rail 12 to be electrically connected with the electrical conductor 123, so as to realize electrical connection between the first connector 21 and the corresponding track segment 10. The second connector 22 is mounted on the other adjacent track segment 10, and the second connector 22 can be inserted into the corresponding power rail 12 to be electrically connected with the electrical conductor 123, so as to realize electrical connection between the second connector 22 and the corresponding track segment 10. Moreover, the first connector 21 can be abutted with the second connector 22 on the adjacent track segment 10 in the longitudinal direction when the first connector 21 is pivoted to the state of being inserted into the corresponding power rail 12 to be electrically connected with the electrical conductor 123, so as to realize mechanical and electrical connection between the two adjacent track segments 10. By arranging the pivotable first connector 21 and the fixedly mounted second connector 22, the electrical connection and disconnection between the multiple track segments 10 can be quickly realized, and the installation and disassembly efficiency of the track module 100 is improved.

[0054] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, in the present embodiment, the track module 100 further comprises a connecting plate 30 connected between two adjacent track sections 10. The connecting plate 30 is protrudingly arranged at one end of one of the track sections 10, and the first connector 21 is mounted on the connecting plate 30 and can rotate relative to the connecting plate 30 to be inserted into the power rail 12 of the corresponding track section 10 to be in electrical contact with the corresponding electrical conductor 123. The connecting plate 30 is located between the mechanical rail 11 and the power rail 12, and the power rail 12 extends to the connecting plate 30. The first connector 21 is protrudingly arranged in the corresponding mechanical rail 11 through the connecting plate 30, and the corresponding second connector 22 is arranged in the corresponding mechanical rail 11 in a retracted manner, so as to reserve space for the connecting plate 30 to be inserted, and then the connecting plate 30 is inserted into the adjacent mechanical rail 11 to realize the insertion of the two adjacent track sections 10 in the first direction. At this time, the second connector 22 and the first connector 21 are synchronously docked in place to realize the mechanical and electrical connection between the two track sections 10. In the present embodiment, the connecting plate 30 has the same shape as the mechanical rail 11 and can be inserted into the mechanical rail 11 from the longitudinal direction of the mechanical rail 11, thereby realizing the mechanical connection between the two track sections 10.

[0055] The connecting plate 30 comprises a bottom plate 31 and two side plates 32 arranged on both sides of the bottom plate 31. Among them, the bottom plate 31 abuts against the bottom wall 111 of the mechanical rail 11, and the end of the bottom plate 31 away from the first connector 21 is located on one side of the boss 125 on the first side surface of the carrier 121. The two side plates 32 are provided with abutting grooves 33 at the positions close to the abutting protrusions 114 of the mechanical rail 11, so as to match the side walls 112 of the mechanical rail 11. Preferably, the two side walls 112 of the mechanical rail 11 are bent to form clamping grooves 115 in the assembly groove 113 at the end away from the bottom wall 111. The end of the two side plates 32 is clamped in the clamping groove 115 of the mechanical rail 11. By abutting the bottom plate 31 against the bottom wall 111 and abutting the end of the side plate 32 against the clamping groove 115, the connecting plate 30 is limited and clamped with the mechanical rail 11 in the second direction.

[0056] As Figures 7-9As shown, the first connector 21 comprises two electrical connection parts, including a first electrical connection part 2121 and a second electrical connection part 2122. The first electrical connection part 2121 is configured to be inserted into the corresponding power rail 12 and electrically contact the corresponding electrical conductor 123, and the second electrical connection part 2122 is configured to electrically connect with the corresponding electrical connection part of the second connector 22. The first connector 21 comprises a plurality of first connecting pieces 211 adapted to the plurality of electrical conductors 123, a first body 213 for accommodating the first connecting pieces 211, and a first cover plate 214 connected with the first body 213. The first cover plate 214 is configured to encapsulate the first connecting pieces 211 in the first body 213. The first connecting pieces 211 are spaced apart from each other, and the two electrical connection parts are arranged at two ends of the first connecting pieces 211 and partially exposed to the first body 213. Preferably, the first electrical connection part 2121 and the second electrical connection part 2122 are arranged vertically relative to each other. Since the plurality of electrical conductors 123 in the power rail 12 are arranged in two rows, the plurality of first connecting pieces 211 in the first connector 21 are also arranged in two groups. The first connecting pieces 211 of adjacent two groups are arranged staggered in the first direction, and the first electrical connection parts 2121 of the first connecting pieces 211 of adjacent two groups are arranged staggered in the second direction. In this way, the first electrical connection parts 2121 of the first connecting pieces 211 can electrically contact the corresponding electrical conductors 123. The circuit can be prevented from being disordered and short-circuited. Of course, in other optional embodiments, when the power rail 12 is provided with only a single row of electrical conductors 123, the corresponding first connecting pieces 211 are provided with only one group, and the plurality of first connecting pieces 211 in the single group do not need to be arranged staggered.

[0057] Specifically, the first connector 21 is a pivotable connector. The first connector 21 is pivotally connected with the corresponding track segment 10, and has a connected position and a disconnected position with the corresponding power rail 12 during the pivoting of the first connector 21, as shown in FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B. Figure 15 and Figure 16The first connector 21 is pivotally connected to the power rail 12 of the track segment 10. The first connector 21 is pivotable between a connection position and a disconnection position. In the connection position, the first connector 21 is kept in the connection position with the power rail 12, and the first connector 21 is in electrical contact with the corresponding power conductor 123. In the disconnection position, the first connector 21 is kept in the disconnection position with the power rail 12, and the first connector 21 is electrically isolated from the corresponding power conductor 123. In the connection position, the first connector 21 is in electrical contact with the corresponding power conductor 123, and the second connector 22 is in electrical contact with the corresponding power conductor 123, so that the adjacent two track segments 10 are in electrical connection. In the disconnection position, the first connector 21 is electrically isolated from the corresponding power conductor 123, and the second connector 22 is electrically isolated from the corresponding power conductor 123, so that the adjacent two track segments 10 are not in electrical connection. In other optional embodiments, the first connector 21 can also be directly plugged and fixed on the power rail 12 of the track segment 10, kept in the connection position with the power rail 12, without limitation. In the connection position, the first electrical connection part 2121 of the first connector 21 is in electrical contact with the corresponding power conductor 123, and the second electrical connection part 2122 is towards the corresponding electrical connection part of the second connector 22, to facilitate the electrical connection while the adjacent two track segments 10 are mechanically connected. In the disconnection position, the second electrical connection part 2122 of the first connector 21 is offset from the corresponding electrical connection part of the second connector 22, and the first electrical connection part 2121 is electrically isolated from the corresponding power conductor 123. At this time, the mechanical connection of the adjacent two track segments 10 is not achieved, and the electrical connection between the adjacent two track segments 10 is not achieved, avoiding the electrical connection between the adjacent track segments 10 during pre-installation, ensuring the safety of installation, and also facilitating the power-off. Moreover, it can avoid the damage of the connector itself caused by the frequent docking and separation of the first connector 21 and the second connector 22, and reduce the subsequent maintenance cost.

[0058] Through such a simplified connection step, the installation process is more intuitive and easy to operate, reducing the demand for professional installers and saving installation time and cost. The track module 100 of the utility model only needs to pivot the first connector 21 to the connection position and dock with the second connector 22 during installation, which is convenient and time-saving. Moreover, only in the connection position, the electrical connection of the adjacent two track segments 10 can be achieved after docking, increasing the safety during installation and maintenance and reducing the risk of electric shock. When the track module 100 needs to be maintained or upgraded, the first connector 21 and the second connector 22 are separated (electrically isolated), and the first connector 21 is pivoted to the disconnection position, which not only achieves power-off, but also synchronously separates the adjacent two track segments 10, facilitating the replacement of load equipment and the overall maintenance of the track.

[0059] Specifically, the first electrical connection part 2121 of the first connector 21 is arranged along the second direction, and the second electrical connection part 2122 is arranged along the first direction, and is respectively partially exposed on the adjacent two sides of the first body 213. In this embodiment, the first cover plate 214 and the first body 213 of the first connector 21 are arranged along the second direction, that is, the first body 213 is arranged towards the power rail 12, and the first cover plate 214 is arranged away from the power rail 12. The first body 213 and the first cover plate 214 are both insulating materials, and a first receiving space 215 for partially receiving the first connecting part 211 is formed between the first body 213 and the first cover plate 214. Optionally, the first body 213 and the first cover plate 214 can be detachably connected. Of course, in other embodiments, the first body 213 and the first cover plate 214 can also be integrally formed.

[0060] The first accommodating space 215 is provided with a stepped frame 216 for mounting two groups of first connecting pieces 211. In the embodiment, the two groups of first connecting pieces 211 are mounted on the stepped frame 216 in the first direction and partially accommodated in the first accommodating space 215. Optionally, the first body 213 and the stepped frame 216 are detachably connected. Of course, in other embodiments, the first body 213 and the stepped frame 216 can also be integrally formed. One group of the two groups of first connecting pieces 211 is surrounded outside the other group, so that the two groups of first connecting pieces 211 are arranged staggered in the first direction and the second direction. The first electric connecting parts 2121 of the two groups of first connecting pieces 211 are preferably arranged staggered in the first direction and the second direction, and the second electric connecting parts 2122 are preferably arranged flush in the first direction and staggered in the second direction. The first connecting pieces 211 are arranged spaced apart from each other. The stepped frame 216 is provided with a second partition plate 2161 for spacing the group of first connecting pieces 211 surrounded outside, and the group of first connecting pieces 211 is in contact with the first cover plate 214. The first body 213 is provided with a first partition plate 2131 for spacing the other group of first connecting pieces 211, and the other group of first connecting pieces 211 is mounted on the stepped surface of the stepped frame 216.

[0061] The side of the first body 213 away from the first cover plate 214 is provided with a plurality of first through holes 2132 for the first electric connecting parts 2121 of the two groups of first connecting pieces 211 to protrude, so as to be in electrical contact with the corresponding electric conductors 123. The first body 213 is provided with a plurality of first openings 2133 for exposing the second electric connecting parts 2122 of the two groups of first connecting pieces 211 along the longitudinal direction towards the second connector 22. The second electric connecting parts 2122 and the first openings 2133 form a plug-in part for plug-in cooperation with the second connector 22.

[0062] The side of the first body 213 away from the first cover plate 214 is provided with a plurality of first insertion plates 217 arranged spaced apart, the first insertion plates 217 extend in the second direction, so that the first insertion plates 217 can be rotated to be inserted into the gap between the adjacent profiles 122 of the power rail 12, so that the first connector 21 is connected with the corresponding track segment 10. The first through holes 2132 are arranged close to the side of the first insertion plates 217, and the first insertion plates 217 are provided with first accommodation grooves 2171 in communication with the first through holes 2132. The first accommodation grooves 2171 are used to accommodate one of the electric connecting parts of the first connecting pieces 211, for example Figure 8The first electrical connection portion 2121 is shown. The first electrical connection portion 2121 of the first connector 211 extends into the first receiving groove 2171 and partially protrudes from the first receiving groove 2171 so that when the first insert plate 217 is inserted into the corresponding power rail 12, the portion of the first electrical connection portion 2121 protruding from the receiving groove 2171 can make electrical contact with the corresponding electrical conductor 123. In a third direction, the first electrical connection portions 2121 of different groups of first connectors 211 are staggered on the same first insert plate 217 and located on opposite sides of the first insert plate 217.

[0063] like Figures 7-9 As shown, the first connector 21 has a pivot portion 218 and a grip portion 219. Each first connector 211 has a connecting point between its first electrical connection portion 2121 and its second electrical connection portion 2122. The pivot portion 218 can rotate along a rotation axis parallel to the line formed by the connecting points of the multiple first connectors 211. For example, this rotation axis can be as follows: Figure 7 The line connecting the two pivot portions 218 is shown. In this embodiment, the first connector 21 is pivotally connected to the connecting plate 30 via the pivot portion 218, allowing the first connector 21 to rotate relative to the connecting plate 30 along the rotation axis, thereby quickly switching between the connected and disconnected positions. The grip portion 219 is configured to be rotatable relative to the pivot portion 218 about the rotation axis via a drive, to facilitate switching of the first connector 21 between the connected and disconnected positions.

[0064] Specifically, the pivot portion 218 is located at the end of the first body 213 along a first direction away from the second connector 22. The pivot portion 218 includes two lugs protruding from the first body 213. The lugs have rotation holes. Figure 5 As shown, a mating part 321 is provided on the side plate 32 of the connecting plate 30 at the position corresponding to the pivot part 218. The mating part 321 includes two protrusions extending away from the side plate 32. The two protrusions are respectively inserted into the rotation holes of the two lugs, thereby enabling the pivot part 218 to be pivotally connected to the connecting plate 30. It should be noted that the pivot part 218 can also be pivotally connected to the mating part 321 of the connecting plate 30 in other ways, such as through a rotating shaft. This utility model does not limit this.

[0065] The grip portion 219 is located at the end of the first cover plate 214 away from the pivot portion 218 along a first direction. The grip portion 219 is positioned along the first direction (e.g.,...) Figure 15 The first connector 21 is rotated counterclockwise by the gripping part 219 to the connection position, thereby establishing an electrical connection between the first connector 21 and the corresponding power rail 12. Conversely, the first connector 21 is rotated counterclockwise by the gripping part 219 in the opposite direction to the first direction (e.g., ...). Figure 16The middle holding portion 219 is flipped in a clockwise direction) to turn the first connector 21 from the connected position to the disconnected position, thereby achieving quick disconnection of the first connector 21 from the corresponding track segment 10.

[0066] As shown in Figures 10-13 The second connector 22 includes two electrical connection portions, i.e., a third electrical connection portion 2221 and a fourth electrical connection portion 2222. The third electrical connection portion 2221 is configured to be inserted into the corresponding power rail 12 and electrically connected to the corresponding electrical conductor 123, and the fourth electrical connection portion 2222 is configured to be electrically connected to the second electrical connection portion 2122 of the first connector 21. The second connector 22 includes a plurality of second connecting members 221 adapted to the plurality of electrical conductors 123, a second body 223 for accommodating the second connecting members 221, and a second cover plate 224 cooperating with the second body 223. The second cover plate 224 is configured to encapsulate the second connecting members 221 in the second body 223. The second connecting members 221 are spaced apart from each other, and the two electrical connection portions are arranged at two ends of the second connecting members 221 and partially exposed to the second body 223. Preferably, the third electrical connection portion 2221 and the fourth electrical connection portion 2222 are arranged perpendicularly relative to each other. Since the plurality of electrical conductors 123 in the power rail 12 are arranged in two rows, the plurality of second connecting members 221 in the second connector 22 are also arranged in two groups. The second connecting members 221 in adjacent two groups are arranged staggered in the first direction, and the third electrical connection portions 2221 of the second connecting members 221 in adjacent two groups are arranged staggered in the second direction. In this way, the third electrical connection portions 2221 of the second connecting members 221 can be electrically connected to the corresponding electrical conductors 123. This can avoid circuit confusion and short circuit. Of course, in other alternative embodiments, when the power rail 12 is provided with only one row of the plurality of electrical conductors 123, the corresponding second connecting members 221 are provided with only one group, and the plurality of second connecting members 221 in the single group do not need to be arranged staggered.

[0067] The second connector 22 is inserted and fixed on the power rail 12 of the adjacent track segment 10. The third electrical connection portion 2221 of the second connector 22 is arranged in the second direction, and the fourth electrical connection portion 2222 is arranged in the first direction and partially exposed to the adjacent two sides of the second body 223. In this embodiment, the second cover plate 224 and the second body 223 of the second connector 22 are arranged in the second direction, i.e., the second body 223 is arranged towards the power rail 12, and the second cover plate 224 is arranged away from the power rail 12. The second body 223 and the second cover plate 224 are both made of insulating material, and a second accommodation space 225 for partially accommodating the second connecting members 221 is formed between the second body 223 and the second cover plate 224. Optionally, the second body 223 and the second cover plate 224 can be detachably connected. Of course, in other embodiments, the second body 223 and the second cover plate 224 can be integrally formed.

[0068] The second accommodating space 225 is provided with a plurality of fixing plates 226 for fixing the second connecting members 221. In the embodiment, two groups of the second connecting members 221 are partially accommodated in the second accommodating space 225 along the first direction and are clamped and fixed on one side of the fixing plates 226. The fixing plates 226 are correspondingly provided with two groups, and the two groups of the fixing plates 226 are arranged in the first direction and are staggered, and the plurality of fixing plates 226 in the same group are arranged in the third direction. In the embodiment, the two second connecting members 221 in different groups are clamped and fixed on different sides of the fixing plates 226, that is, the plurality of second connecting members 221 in the same group are located on the same side of the corresponding fixing plate 226. The second cover plate 224 is provided with a supporting plate 2241 on one side in the second accommodating space 225 for supporting one group of the two groups of the second connecting members 221, and the other group of the two groups of the second connecting members 221 directly contacts the second cover plate 224. So that the two groups of the second connecting members 221 are arranged in the first direction and the second direction. The third electric connecting parts 2221 of the two groups of the second connecting members 221 are preferably arranged in the first direction and the second direction, and the fourth electric connecting parts 2222 are preferably arranged in the first direction and are staggered in the second direction.

[0069] The second body 223 is provided with a plurality of second through holes 2231 on the side away from the second cover plate 224 for the third electric connecting parts 2221 of each second connecting member 221 to extend out, so as to be in electrical contact with the corresponding electric conductor 123. The second body 223 is provided with a plurality of second openings 2232 along the longitudinal direction towards the first connector 21 for exposing the fourth electric connecting parts 2222 of the two groups of the second connecting members 221. The fourth electric connecting parts 2222 and the second openings 2232 form the mating parts for plug-in cooperation with the plug-in parts of the first connector 21.

[0070] The second body 223 has several spaced second insert plates 227 on the side opposite to the second cover plate 224. The second insert plates 227 extend in a second direction to facilitate insertion into the power rail 12. The gaps between the insert plates 227 and the profiles 122 enable mechanical connection with the power rail 12, ensuring a fixed connection between the second connector 22 and the corresponding track segment 10 before insertion into the first connector 21. A second through-hole 2231 is located near the second insert plates 227, and the second insert plates 227 have a second receiving groove 2271 communicating with the second through-hole 2231 to receive the third electrical connection portion 2221 of the second connector 221. The third electrical connection portion 2221 of the second connector 221 extends into and protrudes from the second receiving groove 2271, enabling electrical contact with the corresponding conductor 123 when the second insert plate 227 is inserted into the corresponding power rail 12. In the third direction, the third electrical connection portions 2221 of the second connectors 221 of different groups are staggered on the same second plug plate 227 and located on opposite sides of the second plug plate 227.

The fourth electrical connection part 2222 is exposed as a mating part and serves as a contact terminal for plugging into the first connector 21. The first opening 2133 is formed on the side of the first body 213 facing the second connector 22 along the longitudinal direction, and the second electrical connection part 2122 of the first connector 21 is housed within the first opening. The second electrical connection part 2122 serves as a plug-in part, a slot into which the fourth electrical connection part 2222 is inserted. Of course, in other alternative embodiments, the fourth electrical connection portion 2222 and the second electrical connection portion 2122 can also be configured to have a patch-type contact. In this case, the fourth electrical connection portion 2222 can be provided with a bent electrical connection end (not shown). The bending center of the electrical connection end can make close contact with the second electrical connection portion 2122 when the fourth electrical connection portion 2222 extends into the first opening 2133, thereby improving the stability of the electrical connection.

Of course, in other alternative embodiments, the fourth electrical connection part 2222 and the second electrical connection part 2122 can also be arranged in a patch type contact. At this time, the second electrical connection part 2122 can be provided with an electrically connected end (not shown) arranged in a curved manner.
