[0037] 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.
[0038] The utility model provides a kind of track system.Track system includes track module 100 and connection equipment, wherein connection equipment is mechanically and electrically connected to track module 100.
[0039] As shown in Figure 1 Track module 100 includes mechanical rail 110, connection piece 120, power rail 130, connection rail 140 and electrical connection assembly 150.
[0040] Track module 100 includes at least two track sections.Each track section includes mechanical rail 110, that is to say, mechanical rail 110 is provided with at least two.In the embodiment, mechanical rail 110 is two, and connection piece 120 is mechanically connected to adjacent two mechanical rails 110.Mechanical rail 110 is the skeleton of track system, and smoothness and straightness are ensured by precision machining, to provide stable running path for connection equipment.Connection piece 120 is made of high-strength material, to ensure that the mechanical connection between adjacent mechanical rails 110 is firm and reliable, effectively resists vibration and impact.
[0041] It needs to be known that the connecting device can be a lighting lamp, a camera, a signboard, etc., and the utility model does not limit this. These connecting devices can be directly mechanically and electrically connected to the track module 100, or can be mechanically and electrically connected to the track module 100 through a connecting structure or the like. The utility model does not limit this.
[0042] As shown in Figure 2 The mechanical guide rail 110 is provided with an assembly groove 1101, and the power rail 130 is assembled in the assembly groove 1101. Each track section includes a power rail 130. This design not only protects the power line from external interference, but also maintains the neatness and unity of the appearance of the track module 100. The design of the assembly groove 1101 facilitates the quick installation and replacement of the power rail 130, improving the maintainability of the system. The power rail 130 includes an electric conductor 1301, and the connecting device is in contact with the electric conductor 1301 in the power rail 130, thereby realizing power taking from any position of the track module 100.
[0043] The connecting piece 120 is provided with a receiving groove 1201, and the connecting rail 140 is assembled in the receiving groove 1201. The receiving groove 1201 is adapted to the assembly groove 1101. The adaptation design of the receiving groove 1201 and the assembly groove 1101 ensures that the connecting rail 140 can be accurately assembled onto the connecting piece 120, and forms good alignment with the power rail 130 of the adjacent track section. This precise assembly helps to ensure the reliability and stability of the electrical connection, and reduces problems caused by assembly errors. When the connecting rail 140 needs to be repaired or replaced, it can be easily taken out of the receiving groove 1201 and necessary repair or replacement operation can be performed, thereby reducing maintenance cost and improving maintenance efficiency.
[0044] The connecting rail 140 is located between the power rails 130 of the adjacent two track sections and is electrically connected to the power rails 130 of the adjacent two track sections respectively. The arrangement of the connecting rail 140 ensures that the power rails 130 between the adjacent track sections can seamlessly transmit power, thereby ensuring the continuous transmission of power in the entire track system. Through the electrical connection of the connecting rail 140, the power rails 130 of the adjacent track sections form a whole, enhancing the stability and reliability of the entire track system, and helping to reduce system failures caused by power transmission interruption or instability. During installation, the connecting rail 140 only needs to be placed between the adjacent track sections and necessary electrical connection is performed. During maintenance, if a track section needs to be replaced or repaired, the connecting rail 140 can be easily disconnected, and then the corresponding operation can be performed.
[0045] The embodiment includes two electrical connection assemblies 150. Each electrical connection assembly 150 is mechanically and electrically connected to the connecting rail 140 and the corresponding power rail 130 at both ends, so that the two adjacent track segments are electrically connected through the connecting rail 140. The electrical connection assembly 150 is the key to realize the continuous power supply of the track system. By setting the electrical connection assembly 150, the multiple track segments are electrically connected, and finally the electrical connection of the entire track module 100 is realized, providing a basis for the connected device to take power at any position of the entire track module 100.
[0046] As shown in Figures 3-4 The electrical connection assembly 150 includes two electrical connection assemblies 1501 arranged along the longitudinal direction of the track segment, one of which is assembled on the power rail 130, and the other is assembled on the connecting rail 140, and the two electrical connection assemblies 1501 are electrically connected through the electrical conductor 1502. The electrical connection assembly 150 is assembled on the power rail 130 and the connecting rail 140 through the two electrical connection assemblies 1501, and the electrical connection between them is realized through the electrical conductor 1502, which ensures the continuous transmission of power between adjacent track segments and avoids power interruption or instability.
[0047] The electrical connection assembly 150 includes a mounting seat 1511 and a conductive part 1512.
[0048] The mounting seat 1511 is assembled on the power rail 130 and the connecting rail 140. The mounting seat 1511 is inserted into the connecting rail 140 and the corresponding power rail 130 along the vertical direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the track segment. This straight up design makes the electrical connection assembly 1501 firmly fixed on the power rail 130 and the connecting rail 140.
[0049] The conductive part 1512 is arranged in the mounting seat 1511 and in electrical contact with the power rail 130. This design ensures smooth transmission of current between the power rail 130 and the electrical connection assembly 1501. Good electrical contact between the conductive part 1512 and the power rail 130 reduces resistance and energy loss, improving the efficiency of power transmission. Similarly, the conductive part 1512 of the electrical connection assembly 1501 mounted on the connecting rail 140 is also in electrical contact with the electrical conductor 1301 in the connecting rail 140.
[0050] The mounting seat 1511 is provided with a via hole 1513 for the electrical conductor 1502 to contact the conductive part 1512. The electrical conductor 1502 passes through the via hole 1513 and is in electrical contact with the conductive part 1512. The electrical conductor 1502 can directly pass through the via hole 1513 of the mounting seat 1511 to contact the conductive part 1512 without the need for additional connection devices or steps. This design simplifies the electrical connection process and improves work efficiency.
[0051] The electrical connector 1501 further comprises a spring 1514 assembled in the mounting seat 1511 and a pressing member 1515 exposed to the mounting seat 1511. The spring 1514 elastically abuts against the pressing member 1515 and can be elastically deformed under the extrusion of the pressing member 1515.
[0052] The spring 1514 has a first state and a second state. Through the cooperation of the pressing member 1515 and the spring 1514, the spring 1514 is switched between the first state and the second state under the extrusion of the pressing member 1515.
[0053] In the first state, the spring 1514 extends into the through hole 1513 and abuts against the electrical wire 1502. That is, in the first state, the pressing member 1515 does not extrude the spring 1514, and the spring 1514 is in a natural state without force. At this time, in the vertical direction, the spring 1514 at least partially covers the through hole 1513. When the electrical wire 1502 enters the through hole 1513 from the outside, it will be hindered by the spring 1514 and cannot be in electrical contact with the conductive member 1512, that is, the electrical connection between the electrical connector 1501 and the power rail 130 / connection rail 140 cannot be achieved.
[0054] In the second state, the spring 1514 is elastically deformed and away from the through hole 1513, and the electrical wire 1502 can freely enter and exit the through hole 1513. Specifically, in the second state, the spring 1514 is extruded by the pressing member 1515 and moves towards the power rail 130 / connection rail 140, so that the spring 1514 is elastically deformed until the spring 1514 does not cover the through hole 1513 in the vertical direction. At this time, when the electrical wire 1502 enters the inside of the electrical connector 1501 from the outside through the through hole 1513, it is no longer hindered by the spring 1514. The electrical wire 1502 can continue to extend inward until it is in electrical contact with the conductive member 1512, achieving electrical connection between the electrical connector 1501 and the power rail 130 / connection rail 140.
[0055] Further, when the electrical wire 1502 is in electrical contact with the conductive member 1512, the pressing member 1515 can be released. At this time, the spring 1514 begins to rebound under the action of its own elastic force, abuts against and tightly abuts against the electrical wire 1502, limiting the electrical wire 1502 in the through hole 1513, effectively preventing it from loosening or falling off, and ensuring that the electrical wire 1502 and the conductive member 1512 form good electrical contact, thereby improving the stability and safety of the electrical connection. At the same time, the abutting action of the spring 1514 can also prevent the electrical wire 1502 from being disconnected due to vibration or impact, thereby improving the safety of the electrical connection.
[0056] When connecting the electrical wire 1502 and the electrical connector 1501, the user only needs to press the pressing piece 1515 to achieve the elastic deformation of the elastic sheet 1514 and the limiting and fixing of the electrical wire 1502. This design simplifies the operation process of connection and disconnection, and improves the work efficiency. At the same time, due to the elastic recovery characteristics of the elastic sheet 1514, when the electrical wire 1502 is not installed, the pressing piece 1515 is released, and the elastic sheet 1514 will automatically recover to the initial state, facilitating the next connection operation.
[0057] The design of the elastic sheet 1514 and the pressing piece 1515 enables the user to more intuitively understand the working state of the electrical connector 1501. For example, by observing the position of the pressing piece 1515, the user can determine whether the electrical connector 1501 has been correctly connected or disconnected. This design improves the user experience and satisfaction.
[0058] Of course, when the electrical connector 1501 needs to be maintained or replaced, the user can easily disconnect the connection by pressing the pressing piece 1515 and perform the necessary operation. This design reduces the difficulty and cost of maintenance and improves the maintainability of the system.
[0059] In this embodiment, when connecting two track sections, the two mechanical guide rails 110 are mechanically connected through the connector 120. First, the connection rail 140 and the power rail 130 on one side are electrically connected, the two electrical connectors 1501 are inserted into the connection rail 140 and the power rail 130 respectively, so that the conductive piece 1512 in the electrical connector 1501 is in electrical contact with the electrical conductor 1301 of the connection rail 140 and the power rail 130, the two ends of the electrical wire 1502 are inserted into the through hole 1513 of the electrical connector 1501 on the connection rail 140 and the through hole 1513 of the electrical connector 1501 on the power rail 130 respectively, the electrical wire 1502 is fixed in the electrical connector 1501 through the cooperation of the pressing piece 1515 and the elastic sheet 1514, and it is ensured that the electrical wire 1502 is in electrical contact with the conductive piece 1512 in the electrical connector 1501, so that the electrical connection between the two electrical connectors 1501 is realized, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the connection rail 140 and the power rail 130 on one side. Second, the connection rail 140 and the power rail 130 on the other side are electrically connected, and the process is not repeated. The power flows between the connection rail 140 and the power rails 130 on both sides through the two groups of electrical connection assemblies 150, thereby finally realizing the electrical connection between the two power rails 130.
[0060] In summary, the track module 100 of the utility model embodiment sets two electrical connection assemblies 150, and the two ends of each electrical connection assembly 150 are respectively electrically connected with the connection rail 140 and the corresponding power rail 130, and finally realizes the electrical connection between the two track sections.

Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present application.
