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.
