Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to rail lights, and in particular to a rail light connection structure. Background Technology

[0002] Some existing track lights use pin tumblers to secure the light body to the track, such as the pin tumbler-type track light fixture disclosed in CN208365290U. However, in different usage scenarios, sometimes the light body needs to be set to a size of 1 meter, 2 meters, 3 meters, or even longer. If the pin tumblers are only placed near the ends of the light body, the weight in the middle will cause the light body to derail due to excessive weight. To ensure stable engagement, many pin tumblers need to be installed on the light body, making the assembly process of the light body itself very cumbersome and affecting production efficiency.

Detailed Implementation

[0027] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0028] This utility model relates to a guide rail lamp connection structure, including a lamp rail 100, a connector 200, and a lamp strip 300.

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the light track 100 can be configured as a long track structure. The light track 100 has a mounting cavity 110. In the illustrated direction, the mounting cavity 110 opens downwards. A connector 200 is installed on at least one side of a set of opposing sidewalls of the mounting cavity 110; that is, as shown in the illustration, the connector 200 is installed on either the left or right sidewall of the mounting cavity 110, or both the left and right sidewalls of the mounting cavity 110 may be installed. This embodiment uses the example of installing connectors 200 on both the left and right sidewalls of the mounting cavity 110 for explanation. The connector 200 includes several support portions 210 and several elastic portions 220. The connector 200 is installed on the left and right sidewalls via the support portions 210. The elastic portions 220 are disposed between the support portions 210. An elastic portion 220 is provided between each two adjacent support portions 210. The elastic portion 220 is capable of elastic deformation relative to the support portion 210. The light strip 300 is installed in the mounting cavity 110. The light strip 300 can be entirely placed in the mounting cavity 110, or a portion of the light strip 300 can be placed in the mounting cavity 110 while the other portion is outside the mounting cavity 110. After the light strip 300 is installed in the mounting cavity 110, the elastic part 220 engages with the light strip 300, thereby securing the light strip 300 in the mounting cavity 110. During the installation of the light strip 300, the elastic part 220 undergoes elastic deformation under the pressure of the light strip 300. When the light strip 300 is in place, the elastic part 220 tends to return to its original elastic deformation state, allowing the elastic part 220 to be stably engaged with the lamp body. Depending on the length of the lamp body, connectors 200 of corresponding length can be selected or cut for pairing, making assembly quicker and more convenient, and increasing applicability.

[0030] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the connector 200 mainly consists of multiple support portions 210 and multiple elastic portions 220. The support portions 210 and elastic portions 220 are distributed sequentially along a linear direction, and the support portions 210 and elastic portions 220 are integrally formed. That is, the connector 200 is arranged in the order of support portions 210, elastic portions 220, support portions 210, elastic portions 220, etc., and the linear direction of their arrangement is preferably a straight line, but it can also be an arc-shaped direction with a certain curvature, depending on the extension direction of the light track 100 and the light strip 300. The connector 200 is integrally formed, and no additional parts assembly operation is required for the connector 200.

[0031] The elastic part 220 can be an elastic block, a sheet-like structure, or the like. In this embodiment, for example... Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the elastic part 220 includes a spring body 221 and a first latching protrusion 222. The spring body 221 is arched and plate-shaped, with one side connected to a support part 210 and the other side connected to another support part 210. The spring body 221 protrudes in an arc shape when not subjected to external force. It can be understood that the support parts 210 can be configured as plate-shaped structures, and each support part 210 is located in a spatial plane. When the elastic part 220 is not subjected to external force, the spring body 221 elastically protrudes away from the spatial plane. When the elastic part 220 is subjected to external force, the spring body 221 elastically retracts towards the spatial plane. The first latching protrusion 222 is provided on the spring body 221 and can be integrally formed on the spring body 221. The first latching protrusion 222 faces the light strip 300. The light strip 300 is provided with a groove 310. During the installation of the light strip 300, the first locking protrusion 222 first abuts against the side wall of the light strip 300. Under the force of the light strip 300, the spring body 221 elastically retracts towards the side wall of the mounting cavity 110. After the light strip 300 is installed in place, the first locking protrusion 222 aligns with the groove 310, and the first locking protrusion 222 engages with the groove 310 as the spring body 221 elastically resets, thereby securing the light strip 300 in the mounting cavity 110. The connector 200 is provided with multiple elastic parts 220, meaning that multiple locking points can be achieved with the multiple first locking protrusions 222 against the grooves 310 on the light strip 300, fully ensuring the installation of light strips 300 that are relatively long, such as 1 meter, 2 meters, 3 meters, or even longer. The grooves 310 can be discontinuously distributed on the light strip 300. In this embodiment, the grooves 310 extend in a straight groove shape along the length of the light strip 300. In the diagram, the front-to-back direction represents the length of the light strip 300 and the light track 100, while the vertical direction represents the width of the groove 310 and the spring piece 221. Grooves 310 are provided on both the left and right sides of the light strip 300, extending in the front-to-back direction. After the connector 200 engages with the groove 310, the position of the light strip 300 can be adjusted along the front-to-back direction of the light track 100. The width of the spring piece 221 is greater than the width of the groove 310. When installing the light strip 300, the spring piece 221 does not extend into the groove 310; only the first locking protrusion 222 extends into the groove 310. The spring piece 221 abuts against the side wall of the light strip 300. The first locking protrusion 222 secures the light strip 300, thus preventing it from disengaging from the mounting cavity 110 in the vertical direction. The light strip 300 is clamped to the left and right sides by the spring clips 221 on the connectors 200 on both sides of the mounting cavity 110, thereby preventing the light strip 300 from wobbling left and right in the mounting cavity 110. The first locking protrusion 222 can be in the shape of a sheet, block, or other protrusions. In this embodiment, the first locking protrusion 222 is spherical and protrudes from the center of the elastic part 220. The spherical shape allows the first locking protrusion 222 to slide more smoothly into the groove 310.Correspondingly, the cross-sectional profile of the groove 310 is arc-shaped, which allows the first locking protrusion 222 to slide into the groove 310 more smoothly. On the other hand, it ensures that when the light strip 300 needs to be manually removed from the light track 100, the groove 310 will not excessively lock the first locking protrusion 222 so that the first locking protrusion 222 cannot slide out of the groove 310.

[0032] The connector 200 can be installed in the mounting cavity 110 by means of screw tightening, snap-fitting, or other methods. In one embodiment, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, slots 120 are provided on the left and right sides of the mounting cavity 110. The slots 120 are provided along the length of the mounting cavity 110. During installation, the support 210 is inserted into the slot 120 from one end, and the connector 200 is fixed through the slot 120, thereby enabling quick installation of the connector 200. After installation, the elastic part 220 protrudes out of the slot 120.

[0033] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the slot 120 has opposing extending edges 121 on its upper and lower sides. In the direction shown, the upper edge 121 extends downwards, and the lower edge 121 extends upwards. There is a certain gap between the upper and lower edges 121, forming a slot 124 that constitutes the slot 120. An elastic portion 220 extends through the slot 124 and out of the slot 120. Taking the slot 120 located on the left side of the mounting cavity 110 as an example, the slot 120 on the left side of the slot 120 has its slot 124 located on its right side. The left side wall of the slot 120 is opposite to the slot 124, and is defined as the first slot wall 122. The left side wall of the edge 121 is opposite to the first slot wall 122, and is defined as the second slot wall 123. That is, the first slot wall 122 and the second slot wall 123 are opposite each other. The left and right sides of the support portion 210 are defined as a first side 211 and a second side 212, respectively. A second latching protrusion 213 is provided on the second side 212. After the connector 200 is inserted into the slot 120, the first side 211 faces and abuts against the first slot wall 122. The second latching protrusion 213 abuts against the second slot wall 123 to the right. Through the cooperation of the second latching protrusion 213 and the first side 211, the support portion 210 is positioned relative to the slot 120 in the left-right direction. Each support portion 210 may have a second latching protrusion on its second side 212, allowing one second latching protrusion 213 to simultaneously abut against the second slot wall 123 corresponding to the upper and lower edges 121. Alternatively, two second latching protrusions 213 may be provided on the second side 212, distributed vertically on the second side 212. The upper second protrusion 213 abuts against the second groove wall 123 corresponding to the upper extension 121, and the lower second protrusion 213 abuts against the second groove wall 123 corresponding to the lower extension 121. The width of the elastic part 220 is smaller than the width of the slot 124. The width direction is the up-down direction shown in the figure. The elastic part 220 can protrude beyond the slot 120, reducing sliding friction between the elastic part 220 and the extension 121 when the connector 200 is inserted into the slot 120. The spring plate 221 is arched, and when the connector 200 is inserted into the slot 120, the spring plate 221 does not contact the first groove wall 122, further reducing friction between the connector 200 and the slot 120, allowing the connector 200 to be inserted into the slot 120 more smoothly.
