Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lighting technology, and in particular to a track component structure and track light. Background Technology

[0002] Track lights, as a lighting device that combines lighting function and decorative effect, are widely used in various scenarios such as commercial venues, residential environments and public areas due to their advantages such as flexible installation and adjustable lighting angle.

[0003] Conventional track lights mainly consist of two parts: the track structure and the light body structure. The track structure includes the track body, which has a track groove. The light body structure includes the light body and the light holder, which can be fitted and installed in the track groove.

[0004] Currently, the mainstream track bodies on the market are made of aluminum profiles and plastic profiles, respectively. For aluminum profile track bodies, aluminum itself has good thermal conductivity and structural stability, which can well meet the requirements of track lights. However, the raw material price of aluminum profiles is relatively high, and the processing of aluminum profiles requires multiple processes such as extrusion, cutting, and surface treatment, which further increases the production cost of the track body. This results in a higher overall price for track lights using this material, which is not conducive to the market promotion of the product, especially in the low-to-mid-range lighting market where it is less competitive. As for plastic track bodies, although the raw material price of plastic is lower than that of aluminum profiles, its own material characteristics determine that its structural rigidity and load-bearing capacity are poor. In order to ensure that the track body can bear the weight of the light body during use and avoid problems such as deformation and breakage, and to meet the overall structural rigidity requirements of the track light, existing plastic track bodies usually adopt a multi-layer composite structure design, requiring at least two or more layers of plastic for reinforcement. In some scenarios, it is also necessary to add reinforcing ribs and other structures inside the plastic layers. This multi-layered plastic structure design not only increases the amount of plastic raw materials used, but also extends the mold development cycle and production processing time. As a result, the actual production cost of the plastic track body has not been significantly reduced. In some complex structural designs, its cost is even close to or exceeds that of some simple aluminum profile track bodies.

[0005] To address this, we developed a new technical solution. Utility Model Content
