ENERGY CONSUMING DEVICE AND ASSEMBLY
First Claim
1. An energy consuming device, comprising:
- a housing with lower surface, an aperture in the lower surface, at least one magnetic mount and a first and second terminal aperture;
a first and second terminal respectively position in the first and second terminal aperture so that a portion of the first and second terminal extend below the lower surface;
an energy consuming module positioned in the aperture and electrically coupled to the first and second terminal;
a thermal bridge mounted on one side of the energy consuming module, the thermal bridge extending below the lower surface;
a magnet positioned in the magnetic mount; and
a cover mounted to the housing, the cover extending over the magnet so as to occlude the magnet.

Abstract
An energy consumption device includes a housing that supports a first and second terminal. An energy consuming module, which may include a light emitting diode array, is supported by the housing and is thermally coupled to a thermal bridge that extends below a lower surface of the housing. A cover can be positioned so as to secure the energy consuming module between the cover and the housing. A plurality of magnets can be configured to secure the energy consumption device to a rail that supports powered contacts so that the first and second terminals engage the powered contacts and the thermal bridge is pressed against the rail.

9. An energy consumption system, comprising:
-
a rail have a base and two walls that extend above the base a first distance, the base supporting two power contacts spaced apart in a parallel configuration, the power contacts electrically isolated from the rail and extending above the base a second distance, the first distance being at least five times the second distance; and an energy consumption device mounted on the rail, the energy consumption device having a thermal bridge configured to engage the base between the two power contacts and having at least one magnet that urges the energy consumption device toward the rail such that the thermal bridge is under a compressive force. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
