ABSTRACT:
An improved track lighting system wherein a plurality of lamps are mechanically connected to a flexible track by metal connectors which also serve as the electrical connection for the lamps. The connectors include a stem which mounts along a central groove in the flexible track and have resiliently opposed arcuate members to releasably mount a conical or cylindrical end of the lamp. The electrical connection is achieved by a leg member which extends from the top of one of the arcuate members to the side of the track, where a foot member contacts an electric wire disposed within the side of the track. Each side of the track has a wire extending longitudinally along its length. When alternating connectors contact the two wires, an electric current can be generated through the lamp. The connectors can be selectively located anywhere along the track to place the lamp in a desire position, and the connectors are easily removed and replaced in the central groove. A junction box is located at the end of the track to provide the electrical load to the wires and protect the connections.
