Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of electrical equipment technology, and more particularly to an electric rail and an electric socket. Background Technology
[0002] An electric track is a device used to supply power to and control electrical equipment. By installing power lines and switch control devices on the electric track, various electrical devices can be easily connected and controlled, enabling intelligent and convenient management.
[0003] However, in some related technologies, the improper installation of electric tracks has led to high costs. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application provides a power rail and a power socket, which can reduce the cost of power rails.
[0005] In one aspect, this application provides an electric track, including a panel, a main body, and a dustproof strip. The panel has a socket, the main body is connected to one side of the panel, and an elastic pad is provided at a position opposite the panel. The dustproof strip is located on the side of the main body facing the panel, with both the elastic pad and the socket opposite to the dustproof strip, and the dustproof strip partially obscuring the socket. The dustproof strip and the main body are integrally formed.
[0006] In this application, the dustproof strip and the main body are integrally molded, which avoids the need for additional connecting or snap-fit structures to fix the dustproof strip. This reduces the potential for increased material costs due to additional connecting or snap-fit structures, and also reduces the increased labor and time costs associated with assembling the dustproof strip.
[0007] Optionally, the dustproof strip includes a first sub-dustproof strip and a second sub-dustproof strip. Both the first and second sub-dustproof strips are connected to the side of the main body facing the panel, and there is a preset gap between the first and second sub-dustproof strips. The first and second sub-dustproof strips respectively cover the opposite sides of the socket, and the preset gap communicates with the socket.
[0008] With the above configuration, the dustproof strip can include a first sub-dustproof strip and a second sub-dustproof strip that are separate from each other. The first and second sub-dustproof strips can cover the socket from different sides. The preset gap facilitates the electrical connection between the adapter and the plug-in assembly.
[0009] Optionally, in the direction from the first sub-dustproof strip to the second sub-dustproof strip, the preset gap size is L, which satisfies: L≤0.2mm.
[0010] In this way, the dustproof strip can be easily plugged into the adapter, while also ensuring the dustproof strip's protective effect against foreign objects, reducing the possibility that the dustproof strip's protective effect against foreign objects may be poor due to excessively large preset gaps.
[0011] Optionally, the dustproof strip is an integral structure with a plug-in interface in the middle, which is connected to the socket.
[0012] Thus, the dustproof strip is a whole unit. The integrated dustproof strip has more connecting parts to the main body, which can further improve the connection strength between the dustproof strip and the main body and reduce the possibility of the dustproof strip falling off the main body.
[0013] Optionally, the dustproof strip is elastic, the main body is harder than the dustproof strip, and the main body is equipped with plug-in components. The power rail is electrically connected to the electrical equipment through the plug-in components.
[0014] With the above design, the elasticity of the dustproof strip ensures effective protection against foreign objects when the adapter is plugged into the power rail. Furthermore, the rigidity of the main body is greater than that of the dustproof strip, allowing the main body to better support the plug-in components and ensure the normal operation of the power rail.
[0015] Optionally, the plug-in component includes a grounding plug, the main body of which is provided with a mounting groove opposite to the socket, the grounding plug is installed in the mounting groove, and an elastic pad is provided between the bottom of the mounting groove and the grounding plug.
[0016] In this way, the elastic pad can provide some support for the grounding plug. This ensures sufficient pressure between the grounding plug and the adapter after the adapter is plugged in, guaranteeing good electrical contact between the adapter and the power rail and reducing the possibility of leakage.
[0017] Optionally, the elastic pad and the main body are integrally molded.
[0018] In this way, the elastic pad and the main body can be generated simultaneously and reliably connected in one production process, which can avoid the possibility of setting up other structures to fix the elastic pad, and can also reduce the material cost, labor cost and time cost required when installing the elastic pad.
[0019] Optionally, the material of the elastic pad includes any one of silicone, natural rubber, sponge, and EPDM rubber.
[0020] This allows the resulting elastic pad to have better elasticity. Consequently, the elastic pad provides better support for the grounding connector.
[0021] Optional materials for the dust strip include silicone, natural rubber, sponge, and EPDM rubber.
[0022] In this way, the resulting dustproof strip has good elasticity, which makes the dustproof strip more effective in protecting against dust.
[0023] Secondly, this application provides an electrical socket, including an adapter and any of the power rails described in the first aspect above. The adapter is plugged into the socket and abuts against a portion of the dustproof strip. When the adapter is electrically connected to the power rail, the adapter compresses an elastic pad.
[0024] The beneficial effects of the power sockets provided in the second aspect and the various possible designs of the second aspect can be seen in the beneficial effects of the first aspect and the various possible implementations of the first aspect, and will not be repeated here.

They are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application.
[0038] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification and claims of this application or in the aforementioned drawings are used to distinguish different objects rather than to describe a specific order, and may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.
[0039] In the description of this application, unless otherwise stated, "multiple" means two or more (including two), and similarly, "multiple groups" means two or more (including two groups).
[0040] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly.

[0041] It should be understood that the phrase "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" throughout the specification means that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic related to the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of this application. Therefore, "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" appearing throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. Furthermore, these specific features, structures, or characteristics can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.
[0042] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown, this application embodiment proposes a power socket 200, which includes an adapter 201 and a power rail 100. The adapter 201 is plugged into the socket 11 and abuts against a portion of the dustproof strip 30. When the adapter 201 is electrically connected to the power rail 100, the adapter 201 compresses the elastic pad 50, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown.
[0043] The power outlet 200 is a power distribution system comprising a power rail 100 and an adapter 201. The power rail 100 and adapter 201 work together to enable flexible power supply to electrical devices. Specifically, the adapter 201 can be plugged into the power rail 100 through a socket 11, allowing the adapter 201 to be electrically connected to the power rail 100. Thus, the power outlet 200 can supply power to electrical devices through the adapter 201. Generally, the adapter 201 can slide within the socket 11, allowing it to maintain different positions relative to the panel 10, thereby improving the flexibility of power supply to electrical devices.
[0044] When the adapter 201 is electrically connected to the power rail 100, the adapter 201 can compress the elastic pad 50. The elastic pad 50 is elastic, and when compressed, it tends to recover its original shape under its own elastic force. Specifically, the elastic pad 50 tends to deform towards the side of the adapter 201, which makes the electrical connection between the adapter 201 and the power rail 100 more stable and reliable.
[0045] In this embodiment, the power rail 100 also includes a dustproof strip 30. The dustproof strip 30 can shield the socket 11 on the panel 10, reducing the entry of external dust and debris into the interior of the power rail 100 through the socket 11, thereby reducing the possibility of the presence of foreign objects affecting the normal use of the power socket 200. In other words, in this application, the dustproof strip 30 in the power rail 100 has a protective effect, ensuring the electrical performance of the power socket 200 and improving its reliability and safety.
[0046] Furthermore, at the location where the adapter 201 is plugged in, the adapter 201 also comes into contact with part of the dustproof strip 30. In this way, the contact between the adapter 201 and the dustproof strip 30 can also seal the socket 11, reducing the possibility that the protective effect of the dustproof strip 30 will be weakened due to the plugging in of the adapter 201.
[0047] It should be noted that multiple adapters 201 can be installed on a single power outlet 200. In this way, the power outlet 200 can provide multiple power supply interfaces through multiple adapters 201, which can facilitate the connection of multiple electrical devices.
[0048] The electric track 100 provided in the embodiments of this application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0049] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, this application provides an electric track 100, including a panel 10, a main body 20, and a dustproof strip 30. The panel 10 has a socket 11, and the main body 20 is connected to one side of the panel 10. An elastic pad 50 is provided on the main body 20 at a position opposite to the panel 10. The dustproof strip 30 is located on the side of the main body 20 facing the panel 10. Both the elastic pad 50 and the socket 11 are opposite to the dustproof strip 30, and the dustproof strip 30 partially obscures the socket 11. The dustproof strip 30 and the main body 20 are integrally formed.
[0050] In this embodiment, the power rail 100 includes a panel 10, a main body 20, and a dustproof strip 30. The main body 20 is connected to the panel 10, and the panel 10 serves as the outer shell of the power rail 100, providing protection for the main body 20. The panel 10 is provided with a socket 11, which provides a connection point for the adapter 201.
[0051] Specifically, for the power socket 200 including the aforementioned power rail 100, the adapter 201 can be inserted from the socket 11 and cooperate with the main body 20 on one side of the panel 10. The power rail 100 can supply power to the electrical equipment connected to the adapter 201 through the adapter 201.
[0052] In addition, an elastic pad 50 is provided on the main body 20 at a position opposite to the panel 10. The elastic pad 50 can improve the stability of the electrical connection between the adapter 201 and the power rail 100 when the adapter 201 is plugged into the power rail 100, reduce the risk of the adapter 201 becoming loose, and improve the safety and reliability of the power socket 200.
[0053] The power rail 100 also includes a dustproof strip 30, which is located on the side of the main body 20 facing the panel 10. In this embodiment, the elastic pad 50 and the socket 11 are both opposite to the dustproof strip 30. Since the dustproof strip 30 partially blocks the socket 11, it can protect both the portion of the socket 11 on the panel 10 and the elastic pad 50. The dustproof strip 30 reduces the possibility of external dust and debris directly entering the interior of the power rail 100 through the socket 11, thereby reducing the impact of foreign objects on the normal operation of the power rail 100.
[0054] The dustproof strip 30 on the elastic pad 50 can significantly reduce the likelihood of foreign objects adhering to the surface of the elastic pad 50, thus preventing problems such as aging, hardening, or embrittlement of the elastic pad 50. It also reduces the risk of electrical isolation failure at the elastic pad 50 due to foreign objects, thus minimizing the increased risk of electric shock to the power socket 200.
[0055] In this application, the dustproof strip 30 and the main body 20 are integrally molded, which increases the connection strength between the dustproof strip 30 and the main body 20, reducing the possibility of the dustproof strip 30 easily detaching from the power rail 100. Furthermore, since the dustproof strip 30 and the main body 20 are integrally molded, they can be generated simultaneously and reliably connected in a single manufacturing process, avoiding the need for additional connecting or snap-fit structures to fix the dustproof strip 30. This reduces the potential for increased material costs due to additional connecting or snap-fit structures, and also reduces the increased labor and time costs associated with assembling the dustproof strip 30.
[0056] In summary, the integral molding of the dustproof strip 30 with the main body 20 in this application makes the connection of the dustproof strip 30 more convenient and stable, and can reduce the manufacturing cost, labor cost and time cost of installing the dustproof strip 30. That is, the installation of the dustproof strip 30 in this application can reduce the cost of the power rail 100 with the dustproof strip 30 installed.
[0057] To make the solution and beneficial effects of this application clearer, this application will be described in detail in conjunction with relevant technologies.
[0058] In related technologies, the main body is provided with a snap-fit groove for the dustproof strip to be snapped in, and the dustproof strip is placed in the snap-fit groove. In addition, a connecting structure or snap-fit structure is provided between the snap-fit groove and the dustproof strip, which can fix the dustproof strip to the bottom or wall of the snap-fit groove.
[0059] Under the current technological setup, on the one hand, the additional snap-fit grooves and connecting or snap-fit structures make the installation of dustproof strips more complex, increasing material and assembly costs. On the other hand, during the use of electric rails, the environment in which the electric rails are located, as well as the alternation between active and inactive states, can cause uneven heating of the dustproof strips, leading to shrinkage. When the dustproof strips shrink, they are very likely to detach from the snap-fit grooves, rendering them ineffective in protecting the electric rails and increasing subsequent maintenance costs.
[0060] In the electric track 100 proposed in this embodiment, the dustproof strip 30 and the main body 20 are integrally formed, eliminating the need for additional connecting or snap-fit structures to connect the dustproof strip 30. This makes the connection between the dustproof strip 30 and the main body 20 more convenient and reliable. In other words, compared with the methods in related technologies, the design of this application can significantly reduce the cost of the electric track 100.
[0061] Furthermore, in this application, even if the dustproof strip 30 shrinks due to environmental factors or the alternation of the working state of the power rail 100, the integral molding structure of the dustproof strip 30 and the main body 20 can reduce the possibility of connection failure between the dustproof strip 30 and the main body 20, thereby preventing the dustproof strip 30 from falling off the main body 20.
[0062] In some embodiments, the dustproof strip 30 may be elastic, and the hardness of the main body 20 is greater than that of the dustproof strip 30. A plug-in assembly 40 is mounted on the main body 20, and the power rail 100 achieves electrical connection with the electrical equipment through the plug-in assembly 40, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown.
[0063] Because the dustproof strip 30 is elastic, it can deform when the adapter 201 is plugged in or unplugged, providing continuous shielding and protection for the socket 11. Furthermore, the elastic dustproof strip 30 can compensate for deformation caused by temperature changes and / or the plugging and unplugging of the adapter 201, reducing the possibility of reduced protective effectiveness of the dustproof strip 30 after long-term use of the power rail 100.
[0064] In the power rail 100, the plug-in assembly 40 is the core component for realizing power transmission and signal connection. When the adapter 201 is plugged into the power rail 100, the adapter 201 can be electrically connected to the plug-in assembly 40. In this way, electrical equipment can be connected to the adapter 201, so that the power rail 100 can supply power to the electrical equipment through the adapter 201.
[0065] The main body 20, as the basic structure of the electric track 100, needs to support the plug-in assembly 40 and provide physical support for it. In addition, for electric track 100 with a high degree of intelligence, sensors, communication units, etc. can also be installed on the main body 20 to enable the electric track 100 to support functions such as detection and intelligent control.
[0066] That is, the main body 20 needs to support part of the structure in the power rail 100, therefore, the main body 20 needs to have a certain strength. Based on this, the hardness of the main body 20 in this application can be greater than the hardness of the dustproof strip 30, so that the main body 20 has the ability to support the plug-in assembly 40, etc.
[0067] In summary, the hardness of the main body 20 and the hardness of the dustproof strip 30 differ in this application. In other words, in this application, the integrally molded dustproof strip 30 and the main body 20 are made of different materials. Specifically, the dustproof strip 30 and the main body 20 can be integrally molded using a soft-hard co-extrusion process.
[0068] Among them, soft and hard co-extrusion is a technology that combines soft and hard materials through co-extrusion. It uses an extruder to heat different materials to a molten state, and then extrudes the molten materials simultaneously through a co-extrusion die to form products with different material compositions.
[0069] When the soft and hard co-extrusion process is applied in this application, the dustproof strip 30 can be formed by extrusion of a soft material, and the main body 20 can be formed by extrusion of a hard material.
[0070] In the embodiments of this application, the soft material may specifically include any one of silicone, natural rubber, sponge, and ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM).
[0071] That is, the dustproof strip 30 can be made of any one of the following soft materials: silicone, natural rubber, sponge, and EPDM rubber. Silicone, natural rubber, sponge, and EPDM rubber are all materials with good elasticity. Therefore, the dustproof strip 30 made of any of the aforementioned materials also has good elasticity, which can make the dustproof strip 30 have a better protective effect.
[0072] The rigid materials can specifically include any one of polycarbonate (PC), polypropylene (PP), and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Among them, PC, PP, and PVC are all materials with high rigidity, which allows the main body 20 to have a better load-bearing capacity for the plug-in components 40.
[0073] Those skilled in the art can select any of the above-mentioned soft materials and any of the above-mentioned hard materials for co-extrusion according to production conditions and production needs to form an integrally molded main body 20 and dustproof strip 30.
[0074] In addition, in the embodiments of this application, the dustproof strip 30 can be set in different ways. Here, the following two methods are used as examples for explanation.
[0075] Method 1, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the dustproof strip 30 includes a first sub-dustproof strip 31 and a second sub-dustproof strip 32. Both the first sub-dustproof strip 31 and the second sub-dustproof strip 32 are connected to the side of the main body 20 facing the panel 10, and there is a preset gap 33 between the first sub-dustproof strip 31 and the second sub-dustproof strip 32. The first sub-dustproof strip 31 and the second sub-dustproof strip 32 respectively cover the opposite sides of the socket 11, and the preset gap 33 communicates with the socket 11.
[0076] With the above configuration, the dustproof strip 30 may include a first sub-dustproof strip 31 and a second sub-dustproof strip 32 that are separated from each other. The first sub-dustproof strip 31 and the second sub-dustproof strip 32 may cover the socket 11 from different sides.
[0077] Specifically, on the side of the main body 20 facing the panel 10, the main body 20 has a first side portion and a second side portion located on opposite sides of the socket 11. Thus, a first sub-dustproof strip 31 can be connected to the first side portion of the main body 20, and a second sub-dustproof strip 32 can be connected to the second side portion of the main body 20. In this way, the first sub-dustproof strip 31 and the second sub-dustproof strip 32 are located on different sides of the socket 11, and can respectively shield different sides of the socket 11.
[0078] In this embodiment, a preset gap 33 is provided between the first sub-dustproof strip 31 and the second sub-dustproof strip 32. Since the preset gap 33 is connected to the socket 11, when the adapter 201 is plugged in, the adapter 201 can extend into the power rail 100 through the socket 11 from the preset gap 33 to make an electrical connection with the plug-in assembly 40. The preset gap 33 facilitates the electrical connection between the adapter 201 and the plug-in assembly 40 and also facilitates the sliding of the adapter 201 in the socket 11.
[0079] In this application, the first sub-dustproof strip 31 can be formed on the first side of the main body 20, and the second sub-dustproof strip 32 can be formed on the second side of the main body 20, which facilitates the control of the formation of the preset gap 33. Thus, during the co-extrusion process, the structure of each part of the dustproof strip 30 is consistent, which facilitates the extrusion of soft materials to form the dustproof strip 30.
[0080] In some embodiments, in the direction from the first sub-dustproof strip 31 to the second sub-dustproof strip 32, the preset gap 33 has a size of L, which can satisfy: L≤0.2mm, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown.
[0081] That is, this application also controls the size of the preset gap 33 between the first sub-dustproof strip 31 and the second sub-dustproof strip 32, so that the dustproof strip 30 can ensure the protection effect against foreign objects while facilitating the insertion of the adapter 201, and reduce the possibility that the dustproof strip 30 will have a poor protection effect against foreign objects due to an excessively large preset gap 33.
[0082] In this embodiment of the application, the preset gap 33 in the direction from the first sub-dustproof strip 31 to the second sub-dustproof strip 32 has a size of L, which can be less than or equal to 0.2 mm. Specifically, L can be 0.2 mm, 0.19 mm, 0.165 mm, 0.15 mm, or 0.1 mm, etc. The specific value of L is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the application.
[0083] Method two: The dustproof strip 30 is an integral structure, with a connector 34 in the middle, which connects to the connector 11. Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown.
[0084] Thus, the dustproof strip 30 is a whole unit. The integral dustproof strip 30 has more connecting parts with the main body 20, which can further improve the connection strength between the dustproof strip 30 and the main body 20 and reduce the possibility of the dustproof strip 30 falling off the main body 20.
[0085] In this configuration, the connector 34 is located in the middle of the dustproof strip 30, and the connector 34 can be equivalent to the preset gap 33 in the first configuration described above. Since the connector 34 is connected to the socket 11, when the adapter 201 is plugged in, the adapter 201 can extend through the socket 11 into the power rail 100 via the connector 34 to electrically connect with the plug-in assembly 40. The connector 34 facilitates the electrical connection between the adapter 201 and the plug-in assembly 40.
[0086] In this embodiment, the extension direction of the connector 34 and the socket 11 can be the same. In this way, when the adapter 201 slides along the extension direction of the socket 11, the adapter 201 can also slide in the connector 34, which can reduce the possibility that the dustproof strip 30 will affect the sliding of the adapter 201.
[0087] It should be noted that, in the direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the socket 11, the relative inner wall dimension of the socket 34 can also be less than or equal to 0.2 mm. For details, please refer to the description of the preset gap 33 in Method 1, which will not be repeated here in the embodiments of this application.
[0088] It should also be noted that the insertion interface 34 can be formed simultaneously during the co-extrusion process of the main body 20 and the dustproof strip 30. Alternatively, the main body 20 and the integral dustproof strip 30 can be formed first through a co-extrusion process, and then the insertion interface 34 can be formed on the integral dustproof strip 30. The specific manufacturing method of the dustproof strip 30 proposed in Method Two is not specifically limited in this embodiment.
[0089] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the plug-in assembly 40 may include a grounding plug-in 41. The main body 20 is provided with a mounting groove 21 opposite to the socket 11. The grounding plug-in 41 is installed in the mounting groove 21. An elastic pad 50 is disposed between the bottom of the mounting groove 21 and the grounding plug-in 41.
[0090] In this application, the plug-in component 40 may specifically include a grounding plug-in 41. The grounding plug-in 41 can conduct current to the ground when the power rail 100 experiences leakage or insulation damage, thereby reducing the possibility of electric shock to the user and ensuring the safe use of the power rail 100.
[0091] In this embodiment, the main body 20 is provided with a mounting groove 21 opposite to the socket 11, and the grounding plug 41 can be installed in the mounting groove 21. In this way, the grounding plug 41 is aligned with the socket 11, so that the power connection of the power rail 100 meets the standard.
[0092] The elastic pad 50 is located between the bottom of the mounting groove 21 and the grounding plug 41, thus providing some support for the grounding plug 41. Therefore, when the adapter 201 is plugged into the socket 11 and electrically connected to the grounding plug 41, the elastic pad 50 provides a force to the grounding plug 41 away from the bottom of the mounting groove 21. This ensures sufficient pressure between the grounding plug 41 and the adapter 201, guaranteeing good electrical contact between the adapter 201 and the power rail 100 and reducing the possibility of leakage.
[0093] It should be noted that the mounting groove 21 also has a first groove wall and a second groove wall, with a first limiting platform connected to the first groove wall and a second limiting platform connected to the second groove wall. Both the first and second limiting platforms are opposite to the bottom of the mounting groove 21. Thus, in the distribution direction of the elastic pad 50 and the grounding plug 41, the first and second limiting platforms can limit the grounding plug 41. This prevents the grounding plug 41 from detaching from the mounting groove 21 under the action of the elastic pad 50.
[0094] Additionally, the plug-in assembly 40 may include a live wire plug-in and a neutral wire plug-in. The main body 20 is also provided with a first mounting slot and a second mounting slot positioned opposite each other. In the direction from the grounding plug-in 41 to the elastic pad 50, the first mounting slot and the second mounting slot are located on opposite sides of the mounting slot 21. The live wire plug-in can be installed in the first mounting slot, and the neutral wire plug-in can be installed in the second mounting slot.
[0095] When adapter 201 is electrically connected to power rail 100, adapter 201 is electrically connected to grounding plug 41, live wire plug and neutral wire plug.
[0096] In some embodiments, the elastic pad 50 and the main body 20 can be integrally molded. In this way, the elastic pad 50 and the main body 20 can be generated simultaneously and reliably connected in a single manufacturing process, which can avoid the possibility of setting up other structures to fix the elastic pad 50, and can also reduce the material cost, labor cost and time cost required when installing the elastic pad 50.
[0097] As mentioned above, the dustproof strip 30 is also integrally formed with the main body 20. Therefore, in this application, the dustproof strip 30, the elastic pad 50, and the main body 20 can be integrally formed, which can greatly improve the connection strength of the three and reduce the number of parts of the power rail 100, making assembly easier.
[0098] In this embodiment of the application, similar to the dustproof strip 30, the material of the elastic pad 50 may also include any one of silicone, natural rubber, sponge, and EPDM rubber.
[0099] Silicone, natural rubber, sponge, and EPDM rubber are all materials with good elasticity, which allows the elastic pad 50 to have good elasticity. This results in better support for the grounding plug 41 provided by the elastic pad 50. When the adapter 201 is plugged into the power rail 100 and electrically connected to the grounding plug 41, the elastic pad 50 provides greater pressure to the grounding plug 41, ensuring a more reliable electrical connection between the adapter 201 and the grounding plug 41.
[0100] In a preferred embodiment, the material of the elastic pad 50 can be the same as the material of the dustproof strip 30. This way, when manufacturing the integrated dustproof strip 30, elastic pad 50, and main body 20, only the two materials need to be added to the extruder. This makes the extruder structure relatively simple and cost-effective, thereby reducing the initial investment in producing the electric track 100.
[0101] Of course, the material of the elastic pad 50 and the dustproof strip 30 can be different. In this case, if the dustproof strip 30, the elastic pad 50, and the main body 20 are to be manufactured as a single unit, a more complex and energy-intensive extruder is required. This application does not specifically limit the choice of materials for the elastic pad 50 and the dustproof strip 30.
[0102] In this embodiment, the dustproof strip 30 and the main body 20 are integrally formed, which increases the connection strength between the dustproof strip 30 and the main body 20, reducing the possibility of the dustproof strip 30 easily detaching from the power rail 100. Furthermore, since the dustproof strip 30 and the main body 20 are integrally formed, they can be generated simultaneously and reliably connected in a single manufacturing process, avoiding the need for additional connecting or snap-fit structures to fix the dustproof strip 30. This reduces the potential for increased material costs due to additional connecting or snap-fit structures, and also reduces the increased labor and time costs associated with assembling the dustproof strip 30.
[0103] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely specific implementations of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
