[0006] The track connector includes an electrical connection mechanism and a first snap-fit ​​mechanism. The track connector is connected to the track light track by engaging with the track connection groove on the track light track through the first snap-fit ​​mechanism.

[0007] The electrical connection mechanism includes two electrical connection metal plates and an elastic reset member disposed between the two electrical connection metal plates. The elastic reset member is made of insulating material, and the elastic reset member enables the electrical connection between the electrical connection metal plates and the inner side of the track light to be more stable.

[0008] The ends of the two electrical connecting metal pieces are electrically connected to the light strip body through internal wiring via the light strip connector, so that the track light track can supply power to the light strip body through the electrical connecting metal pieces.

[0009] Preferably, the bottom inner side of the elastic reset member is provided with at least one reset member reset groove to facilitate the retraction of the elastic reset member.

[0010] Preferably, the track connector further includes a connector base and a connector cover, wherein the connector base is fixedly connected to the connector cover by a snap-fit ​​mechanism.

[0011] Preferably, the first snap-fit ​​mechanism includes a limit button and a first connecting block disposed on the side of the connector base. The first connecting block cooperates with the track connecting groove to snap-fit ​​the track connector onto the track light track.

[0012] The limit button is slidably connected inside the connector base, and can lock or release the engagement state between the first connecting block and the track connecting groove by means of the limit button.

[0013] Preferably, the top of the limit button is provided with a button limit groove, and the upper cover of the connector is provided with an upper cover limit block. The movement of the limit button is limited by the cooperation of the button limit groove and the upper cover limit block.

[0014] Preferably, a second connecting block is provided on both sides of the light strip connector. The second connecting block cooperates with the track connecting groove to make it easier to connect the flexible adjustable light strip to the track light.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this flexible adjustable light strip are as follows:

[0016] 1. The track connector connects to the light strip body via the light strip connector head, allowing for the replacement of different light strip connector heads so that the track connector can connect to different light strip bodies.

[0017] 2. By using an elastic reset component as the reset structure of the electrical connection, it can have better durability and reset capability, and be more durable. In actual use, the elastic reset component can be a certain kind of insulating elastic plastic or silicone. Attached Figure Description
