Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of HALO railhead technology, and in particular to a HALO railhead with a movable spring. Background Technology
[0002] The track head (also known as a track adapter or connector) is a core component of a track lighting system, primarily used to connect the luminaire to the conductive track and provide power and fixation. Its core functions include: firstly, providing stable power transmission to the luminaire through internal conductive contacts that connect to the power lines within the track; secondly, ensuring a secure installation and allowing for 360° rotation to adjust the illumination angle through mechanical snap-fit or twist-lock mechanisms that tightly engage with the track groove. Some track heads also integrate anti-electric shock designs or quick-release structures to enhance safety and ease of maintenance.
[0003] Current HALO four-wire track heads have a significant functional deficiency: although the track integrates four wires (usually including a live wire, neutral wire, ground wire, and an additional control wire), traditional HALO track heads can only connect three of them, leaving the fourth wire (often for intelligent control or independent power supply) idle. This design limits the scalability of the track system and cannot support intelligent dimming, separate control, or multi-circuit power supply scenarios that require multi-wire coordination, resulting in wasted customer costs and functional redundancy. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a HALO rail head with a movable spring, which solves the problem that in the existing technology, the HALO rail head can only connect three of the wires inside the rail, resulting in the fourth wire (mostly an intelligent control or independent power supply line) being idle.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, a HALO railhead with a removable spring is provided, including a base box assembly and a HALO assembly.
[0006] The bottom box assembly includes an inner shell, springs, and a bottom box. Springs are installed at opposite ends of the upper part of the inner shell, and both the inner shell and the springs are installed inside the bottom box.
[0007] The HALO assembly includes a nut, a grounding plate, a grounding lower cover, a HALO-top cover, a HALO-L spring, a HALO-N spring, a grounding upper cover, a Phillips countersunk screw, a grounding spring, and a Phillips round head screw. The inner two ends of the HALO-top cover have mounting grooves, which correspond to the HALO-L spring and the HALO-N spring. The grounding upper cover is installed in the middle of the inner side of the HALO-top cover.
[0008] According to the HALO rail head with a removable spring, the upper two ends of the HALO-top cover are threadedly connected to Phillips head countersunk screws, and the top of the ground wire cover is installed correspondingly to the ground wire spring.
[0009] According to the HALO rail head with a removable spring, the Phillips head screw passes through the mounting hole of the ground spring and engages with the nut.
[0010] According to the aforementioned HALO rail head with a detachable spring, the grounding plate and the grounding cover are both installed at the bottom of the HALO-top cover.
[0011] According to the aforementioned HALO track head with a detachable spring, a lamp body is correspondingly installed at the bottom of the base box assembly.
[0012] According to the HALO rail head with a removable spring, the ground spring, the upper ground cover, the lower ground cover, and the ground piece are all provided with mounting holes that mate with Phillips head screws.
[0013] The above-mentioned solution has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. The HALO rail head of this patent can solve the problem that traditional rail heads can only be adapted to three of the four lines in the HALO four-line rail, and the traditional rail head has a single function. This patent can freely switch to use all four lines in the rail as needed, which is convenient and quick.
[0015] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0024] This section will describe in detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model. The preferred embodiments of the present utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the drawings is to supplement the textual description with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present utility model, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0025] Reference Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a HALO rail head with a detachable spring, including a base box assembly 15 and a HALO assembly 16.
[0026] The bottom box assembly 15 includes an inner shell 1, a spring 2, and a bottom box 3. The spring 2 is installed at opposite ends of the upper part of the inner shell 1, and both the inner shell 1 and the spring 2 are installed inside the bottom box 3.
[0027] HALO assembly 16 includes a nut 4, a grounding plate 5, a grounding lower cover 6, a HALO-top cover 7, a HALO-L spring 8, a HALO-N spring 9, a grounding upper cover 10, a Phillips head countersunk screw 11, a grounding spring 12, and a Phillips head round screw 13. The inner sides of the HALO-top cover 7 have mounting grooves at both ends, corresponding to the HALO-L spring 8 and the HALO-N spring 9. The grounding upper cover 10 is installed in the middle of the inner side of the HALO-top cover 7. The assembly process involves placing the HALO assembly 16 into the sides of the HALO-top cover 7 via the HALO-L spring 8 and the HALO-N spring 9. Next, insert the ground wire cover 10 from top to bottom into the HALO-top cover 10, pressing down the HALO-L spring 8 and HALO-N spring 9. Then place the ground wire spring 12 on top, and insert the Phillips head screw 13 into the hole of the already installed ground wire cover 10. Then assemble the ground wire lower cover 6, ground wire piece 5, and nut 4 in the order shown in the diagram, and tighten the Phillips head screw 13 and nut 4. Then place the spring 2 in the inner shell 1, and then place the bottom box 3 on top to complete the assembly of the bottom box assembly 15. Then tighten the already installed HALO assembly 16 onto the bottom box assembly 15 with the Phillips head countersunk screw 11, thus completing the HALO track head assembly.
[0028] The upper two ends of the HALO-top cover 7 are threaded with Phillips head countersunk screws 11. The top of the ground wire cover 10 is installed in correspondence with the ground wire spring 12. The Phillips head round screw 13 passes through the mounting hole of the ground wire spring 12 and cooperates with the nut 4. The Phillips head countersunk screw 11 can correspond to the screw holes at both ends of the HALO-top cover 7, and can also correspond to the screw holes at both ends of the top of the bottom box 3, thereby locking the HALO component 16 and the bottom box component 15 together, which is convenient for their installation and use.
[0029] The ground wire piece 5 and the ground wire cover 6 are both installed at the bottom of the HALO-top cover 7. The bottom of the bottom box assembly 15 is equipped with the lamp body 14. The ground wire spring piece 12, the ground wire cover 10, the ground wire cover 6, and the ground wire piece 5 are all provided with mounting holes that mate with the cross head screws 13. The cross head screws 13 are threaded into the nut 4 at the bottom, thereby locking the HALO assembly 16 and ensuring stable installation between the components.
[0030] Working Principle: When using this patented technology, first, lead the wires from the lamp fixture through the universal joint, pass them through the base box 3, and then tighten the universal joint to the base box 3 with a nut. Next, solder the led-out wires to the spring contacts: HALO-L spring contact to the black wire, HALO-N spring contact to the white wire, and green wire to the ground to complete the wiring. Then, lock the HALO track assembly, and the track head and lamp fixture are assembled. The track head can rotate 0-350 degrees around the universal joint, and the universal joint can be adjusted 0-90 degrees around the screw mounting position with the lamp body 14. For installation, first install the guide rail, then insert the lamp fixture into the guide rail through the track head, rotate 90 degrees clockwise to fix the lamp fixture, adjust the lamp fixture angle, connect to the mains power, and the lamp fixture installation is complete. If you do not want to use the L1 circuit and want to... When using the other L2 line, first disconnect the mains power, rotate the track light head already installed on the HALO rail 90 degrees counterclockwise, remove the light fixture, and use a flathead screwdriver to push the HALO-L spring 8 all the way up until the HALO-L spring 8 reaches the position of the L2 line. Then install it on the rail in the same way. The installation is now complete. The HALO-L spring 8 and HALO-N spring 9 on the assembled HALO component 16 are shown. The HALO-L spring 8 is 3.5mm longer than the HALO-N spring 9. Pushing the HALO-L spring 8 upwards will allow it to move upwards by passing through the 3.5mm length of the HALO-L spring 8. When you want to use the original line again, simply use a flathead screwdriver to press the HALO-L spring 8 back down.
