a first magnetic attraction piece, wherein the first magnetic attraction piece is used for magnetically connecting with the adapter; and

a fastener holder, wherein the fastener holder is used for engaging with the adapter,

wherein the adapter comprises a housing, and first fasteners and an operating part arranged on the housing, wherein the first fasteners are configured to engage with the fastener holder, and the operating part is configured to be cooperated with the first fasteners, wherein the first fasteners are connected with a top plate of the housing through a first spring piece, the operating part is connected with a side plate of the housing through a second spring piece, a surface of the first fasteners that engaged with the operating part is an inclined surface, and a surface of the first fasteners opposite to the side plate is an inclined surface.

2 . The track according to claim 1 , further comprising a power supply conductive terminal and/or a signal conductive terminal arranged in the frame and partially exposed in the accommodating space, and wherein the power supply conductive terminal and/or the signal conductive terminal extend/extends along a length direction of the track, and the power supply conductive terminal and the signal conductive terminal are used for electrically connecting with the adapter.

3 . The track according to claim 2 , further comprising an insulation protection part embedded in a sidewall of the frame, and wherein the insulation protection part extends along the length direction of the track, and the power supply conductive terminal and/or the signal conductive terminal are/is embedded in the insulation protection part.

4 . The track according to claim 2 , wherein the frame comprises a top wall and two sidewalls perpendicular to the top wall, the first magnetic attraction piece is embedded in the top wall adjacent to the installation portion, and the power supply conductive terminals and/or signal conductive terminals are located on the two sidewalls.

5 . An adapter, used for electrically connecting with a power supply device or a power consumption device and coupled in a track, wherein the track comprises,

in a height direction, a side with an installation portion, and another side with a frame, and wherein the frame encloses to form an accommodating space with an opening direction that is away from the installation portion, the installation portion is used to connect with an installation foundation, and the accommodating space is used for accommodating the adapter;

a first magnetic attraction piece, wherein the first magnetic attraction piece is used for magnetically connecting with the adapter; and

a fastener holder, wherein the fastener holder is used for engaging with the adapter, and

wherein the adapter realizes that the power supply device or the power consumption device obtains electricity from the track, and the adapter further comprises a housing, and first fasteners and an operating part arranged on the housing, wherein the first fasteners are configured to engage with the fastener holder, and the operating part is configured to be cooperated with the first fasteners, wherein the first fasteners are connected with a top plate of the housing through a first spring piece, the operating part is connected with a side plate of the housing through a second spring piece, a surface of the first fasteners that engaged with the operating part is an inclined surface, and a surface of the first fasteners opposite to the side plate is an inclined surface.

6 . The adapter according to claim 5 , wherein two sides of the adapter are provided with power supply spring pieces and/or signal spring pieces, and the track is provided with power supply conductive terminals and/or signal conductive terminals which are arranged in the frame and partially exposed in the accommodating space, and the power supply conductive terminals and/or signal conductive terminals both extend along a length direction of the track, the power supply spring pieces are configured to be in contact with the power supply conductive terminals, and the signal spring pieces are configured to be in contact with the signal conductive terminals.

7 . The adapter according to claim 5 , wherein the operating part is used for driving the first fasteners to switch between an extended state and an retracted state,

in a case that the first fasteners are in the extended state, the first fasteners are engaged with the fastener holder, and in a case that the first fasteners are in the retracted state, the first fasteners are separate from the fastener holder.

8 . The adapter according to claim 7 , wherein the side plate of the housing is provided with an opening, and in a case that the first fasteners are in the extended state, the first fasteners extend out of the opening, and in a case that the first fasteners is in the retracted state, the first fastener retract into the opening.

9 . The adapter according to claim 8 , wherein

in a case that the operating part moves in a first direction, the operating part drives the first fasteners to move in a direction towards the top plate, and the side plate presses the first fasteners to retract into the opening, and

in a case that the operating part moves in a second direction, the first spring piece drives the first fasteners to move in a direction away from the top plate, and the first spring piece drives the first fasteners to extend out of the opening, and the second direction is opposite to the first direction.

10 . The adapter according to claim 9 , wherein the side plate is provided with a baffle plate, and the baffle plate is cooperated with the first fasteners, and the baffle plate is used for preventing the first fasteners from moving in the first direction in the case that the operating part moves in the first direction.

11 . The adapter according to claim 5 , further comprising a second fastener, wherein the second fastener is engaged with the fastener holder and is a spring fastener, and is capable of being separated from the fastener holder when an external force on the second fastener reaches a preset threshold, and

wherein the adapter further comprises a first end and a second end, the first end and the second end are arranged oppositely, the first fasteners are arranged at the first end, and the second fastener is arranged at the second end.

12 . A track light, comprising an adapter which is adapted to a track, wherein:
