A mountable track 20 (e.g. for attachment to a ceiling) for supporting and providing electrical power to a medical device mounting apparatus 28 comprises a carriage 26 which is moveable along the track 20 and an electrical power cable which connects an electrical power source and the carriage 26. The cable passes from the power source, along an inside surface of the track 20 and loops back before connecting to the carriage 26. The electrical power cables may be carried within a chain-link casing as part of an energy chain 30. The track 20 may comprise two parallel track members 22 with a partial housing provided for the carriage 26 to physically prevent it coming away from the track 20 due to its physical size. The carriage 26 may have wheels allowing it to move freely along the track 20 along partially enclosed channels provided by the track 20 while the cable may also pass along the inside surface of such a channel. The track 20 may comprise a second carriage and a second electrical power cable passing from an energy source along another inside surface of the track 20 before looping back and connecting with the second carriage. |
