Abstract: A low-profile track system includes low-profile joiner components or devices that releasably couple and electrically connect track segments together. In one example, the joiner device includes a protruding portion configured to fit within corresponding cavity of a receptacle at the end of a track segment. To maintain a low profile, the joiner device can include joiner contacts that exert an outward lateral force that engages with corresponding receptacle contacts disposed in the cavity of the receptacle. The joiner device further includes a secondary or complimentary fastener or connector associated with the protruding portion that releasably engages a corresponding fastener disposed in the cavity of the receptacle, where the complimentary fastener and exerts a force in a direction orthogonal to the outward lateral force.

Abstract: A track lighting device includes a clamp assembly having a dual engagement mechanism for coupling to a track. For example, the clamp assembly includes a collar rotatable about a collar axis, and a cam follower having a cam-pin received by a first groove of a cam. The cam also includes a second groove and a first engagement member. The first groove translates a rotational movement of the collar and the cam follower into a linear movement along the collar axis to releasably couple the first engagement member to the track. The clamp assembly also includes a latch assembly having a second engagement member and a latch-pin in communication with the second groove of the cam. At least a portion of the latch assembly pivots about a latch axis based on movement of the latch-pin relative to the second groove to couple the second engagement member to the track.
