[0033] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0034] The existing storage of important items is often undertaken by multiple staff members, and the storage is scattered, making inventory and management difficult. In addition, the commonly used regular manual inventory method cannot monitor the presence of items in the cabinet in real time, and cannot effectively ensure the safety of the storage of important items. In this regard, an embodiment of the present invention provides a safe. Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a safe provided by an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the safe includes a cabinet body 1, an identity recognition module 3 and an RFID monitoring module 4; wherein, a plurality of lockers 2 are arranged in the cabinet body 1, and a door switch 22 is arranged at the connection between the cabinet door 21 of each locker 2 and the body of each locker 2; the identity recognition module 3 is used to obtain the identity information of the user; the door switch 22 is used to control the switch of the cabinet door 21 based on the identity information; each locker 2 is used to store items carrying RFID tags, and the RFID monitoring module 4 is used to obtain the tag data of each RFID tag.

[0035] Specifically, a plurality of lockers 2 are arranged in the cabinet 1, and each locker 2 can be used to store items. For any locker 2, a door switch 22 is arranged at the connection between the door 21 of the locker 2 and the locker 2 body, and the door switch 22 is used to realize the opening or locking of the locker door 21. By arranging a plurality of lockers 2 that can be opened and locked independently in the cabinet 1, the items that originally required multiple staff members to keep and store separately can all be placed in one safe, and items of different types or different permissions can still be stored in different lockers 2 in the same safe, which not only realizes the centralized storage of items, reduces the difficulty of unified inventory of items, but also eliminates the possibility of staff members with different permissions contacting items that are not within their personal permissions, thereby improving the safety of item storage. It should be noted that the number of lockers 2 in the cabinet 1 and the location of the lockers 2 can be set according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present invention does not specifically limit this.

[0036] The identity recognition module 3 can be arranged on the surface of the cabinet 1 for the convenience of the user to operate, and can also be arranged at any position outside the cabinet 1. A safe can include only one identity recognition module 3, and the identity information of the user obtained by the identity recognition module 3 can be used to control the door switch 22 on each locker 2 in the cabinet 1; a safe can also include multiple identity recognition modules 3, for example, an identity recognition module 3 is installed on the surface of the door 21 of each locker 2, and the identity information of the user obtained by the identity recognition module 3 is only used to control the door switch 22 on the installed locker 2. Here, the identity recognition module 3 can be a face recognition device, a fingerprint recognition device, a voiceprint recognition device, or a device with identity information acquisition function such as a password recognition device or a password recognition device. The identity recognition module 3 can obtain the identity information of the user through face recognition, fingerprint recognition, voiceprint recognition, password login or password matching, etc. The identity information can be the name, position, opening authority, etc. of the user, and the embodiment of the present invention does not specifically limit this. After knowing the identity information of the user, the door switch 22 can directly control the opening or locking of the corresponding locker door 21 based on the identity information, or can receive the switch instruction generated by the identity recognition module 3 or other modules with processing functions based on the identity information, and control the opening or locking of the corresponding locker door 21 based on the switch instruction. For example, the cabinet 1 is provided with lockers A, B, and C, and the identity recognition module 3 is a face recognition device. The identity recognition module 3 learns through face recognition that the opening authority of the current user's identity information is locker A, and then controls the door switch 22 set on locker A to open, so that the current user can open locker A. For another example, the cabinet 1 is provided with lockers E, F, and G and identity recognition modules E, F, and G, and each locker corresponds to an identity recognition module. After the current user inputs the identity information through the identity recognition module E, the identity recognition module E sends the identity information to the door switch set on the locker E, and the door switch matches the identity information with the pre-set identity information that has the right to open the door switch. If the match is successful, it will be opened; if the match is not successful, it will remain locked.

[0037] The RFID monitoring module 4 is a device for contactless automatic identification of items carrying RFID tags based on RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology. The safe can include one or more RFID monitoring modules 4. The number and layout of the RFID monitoring modules 4 need to be determined according to the size of the cabinet 1 and the distribution of the lockers 2 in the cabinet 1. The RFID monitoring module 4 can be arranged inside the cabinet 1, or outside the cabinet 1 when the cabinet 1 is made of non-metallic material. The embodiment of the present invention does not specifically limit this.

[0038] In order to monitor the presence of items in the cabinet in real time, it is necessary to ensure that the working area of ​​the RFID monitoring module 4 can cover each locker 2 in the cabinet body 1 that stores items that need to be monitored, and to attach RFID tags to the items that need to be monitored. The RFID tag stores tag data, which is used to reflect the relevant information of the item, such as the name of the item, the type of item, etc. The RFID monitoring module 4 sends a radio frequency signal in real time. When the RFID tag is in the working area of ​​the RFID monitoring module 4, an induced current is generated, and the tag data is sent out through the built-in transmitting antenna of the RFID tag. After receiving the carrier signal sent by the RFID tag, the RFID monitoring module 4 extracts the tag data from the carrier signal. Therefore, the presence of the items to be monitored can be determined according to the tag data obtained by the RFID monitoring module 4, that is, whether the item is currently stored in the locker can be determined by whether the tag data of the RFID tag carried by any item is obtained. By monitoring the presence of any item, abnormal events such as illegal removal of items from the safe, overdue items after being lent, etc. can be discovered in time, effectively ensuring the safety of item storage.

[0039] The confidentiality cabinet provided by the embodiment of the present invention realizes the centralized storage of items by setting up multiple independent lockers in the cabinet body and controlling the cabinet door opening and closing by the identity information of the user, thereby reducing the difficulty of unified inventory of items and eliminating the possibility of staff with different permissions contacting items that are not within their personal permissions, thereby improving the safety of item storage. In addition, by setting up an RFID monitoring module and installing RFID tags on the items, the tedious and complicated operation process of manual inventory is avoided, and real-time monitoring of the item's location is realized.

[0040] Based on the above embodiment, the RFID monitoring module in the safe includes an RFID reader and several RFID antennas; any RFID antenna is connected to the RFID reader and the RFID tag respectively, receives the tag data transmitted by the RFID tag, and sends the tag data to the RFID reader.

[0041] Specifically, the RFID reader is also called an RFID reader, which is used to receive tag data and perform on-site monitoring of items. The RFID antenna is used to receive the radio frequency signal emitted by the RFID reader and amplify and transmit the radio frequency signal, so that RFID tags deployed in a larger area can receive the radio frequency signal, generate an induced current, and carry the tag data on the radio frequency signal as a carrier signal to send it out. The RFID antenna is also used to receive the carrier signal sent by the RFID tag and forward the carrier signal to the RFID reader. It should be noted that there can be one or more RFID antennas, and the layout of the RFID reader and RFID antenna needs to be determined according to the distribution location of the lockers.

[0042] In the embodiment of the present invention, by setting up an RFID antenna, the working range of the RFID reader is effectively expanded. While ensuring that each locker in the safe is within the coverage range of the radio frequency signal, the number of RFID readers in the safe is reduced, the cost of on-site status monitoring is reduced, and the problem of tag data scrambling or missing caused by multiple RFID readers reading the tag data of an RFID tag at the same time is avoided.

[0043] Based on any of the above embodiments, in the safe, the RFID reader is arranged at the center of the distribution matrix formed by all the lockers.

[0044] Specifically, in order to ensure that the working range of the RFID monitoring module can completely cover each locker, so that the items carrying RFID tags stored in each locker can be monitored in real time, the RFID reader is set at the center of the distribution matrix formed by all lockers. Here, the distribution matrix formed by all lockers is a matrix formed by the position of each locker in the cabinet. The RFID reader is set at the center of the distribution matrix formed by all lockers, that is, the RFID reader is set at the center of the setting position of each locker in the cabinet, so that the working range of the RFID reader can cover as many lockers as possible, thereby reducing the number of RFID antennas to be set.

[0045] For example, Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of a safe provided by another embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the cabinet 1 is divided into three parts, wherein the middle part 11 of the cabinet 1 is located in the middle position of the cabinet 1 in the horizontal direction, and the left and right sides of the middle part 11 are the two side parts 12 of the cabinet 1 respectively. The lockers 2 in the safe are evenly arranged on the two side parts 12 of the cabinet 1, and the RFID reader 41 is arranged on the middle part 11 of the cabinet 1, so that the working range of the RFID reader 41 can cover as many lockers 2 as possible. On this basis, RFID antennas are mounted on the backs of the two side parts 12 of the cabinet 1 to further expand the working range of the RFID reader 41, ensuring that the items carrying RFID tags in each locker 2 can be monitored in place.

[0046] Based on any of the above embodiments, the safe also includes a control module, which is respectively connected to the identity recognition module, the RFID monitoring module and each cabinet door switch; the control module is used to control the cabinet door switch based on identity information, and is also used to monitor the presence of each item based on tag data.

[0047] Specifically, the control module and the identity recognition module, the RFID monitoring module and each cabinet door switch may be interconnected via a wireless network or connected via a signal transmission line, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0048] After obtaining the user's identity information, the identity recognition module sends the identity information to the control module. The control module can determine whether the door switch of each locker is open based on the received identity information, and send a control signal to the door switch that needs to be opened. After receiving the control signal sent by the control module to instruct to open, any door switch opens the door. Here, the control module can match the received identity information with the preset personnel identity information to determine whether the current user has the authority to open the locker. It can also compare the received identity information, such as the user's level, with the preset opening permissions of different levels to determine whether the user has the authority to open the locker, and which lockers the user has the authority to open. The embodiment of the present invention does not specifically limit this.

[0049] In addition, after the RFID monitoring module obtains the tag data of the items with RFID tags stored in each locker, it sends all the tag data to the control module. After receiving all the tag data, the control module obtains the information of the items with RFID tags currently stored in each locker, thereby determining the presence of each item. The RFID monitoring module obtains the tag data in real time and sends the tag data to the control module. The control module also updates the presence of each item based on the tag data received in real time, thereby realizing the monitoring of the presence of the items.

[0050] The safe provided by the embodiment of the present invention controls the door opening and closing based on the identity information of the user by setting a control module, thereby eliminating the possibility that staff with different permissions can access items that are not within their personal permissions, thereby improving the safety of item storage. In addition, real-time monitoring of the item's location is achieved, avoiding the tedious and complicated operation process of manual inventory.

[0051] Based on any of the above embodiments, the safe also includes a communication module; the communication module is used to realize the connection between the control module and the identity recognition module, the RFID monitoring module and each cabinet door switch. Here, the communication module can be a wireless routing device and a WIFI communication module, or a Zigbee module or a Bluetooth module, which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0052] Based on any of the above embodiments, the safe further includes a selection module, which is connected to the control module; the selection module is used to obtain the user's target locker and / or target item.

[0053] Specifically, the selection module can be a device with input function such as a keyboard, a touch screen, etc., and the user can input the target locker and / or the target item through the selection module. Among them, the target locker is the locker that the user wants to open, and the target item is the item stored in the locker that the user wants to obtain. After obtaining the target locker and / or the target item, the selection module sends the target locker and / or the target item to the control module. After receiving the target locker and / or the target item, the control module can determine whether the user has the authority to open the target locker and / or the locker where the target item is located based on the user's identity information, thereby controlling the cabinet door switch of the target locker and / or the locker where the target item is located.

[0054] In the safe provided in the embodiment of the present invention, a selection module is set to obtain the user's needs, and the association between the user's identity information and each door switch is directly narrowed down to the association between the user's identity information and the door switch of the target locker and / or the locker where the target item is located, thereby avoiding the security problem caused by blindly opening the locker that the user has the opening authority but does not need to be opened by the user.

[0055] Based on any of the above embodiments, Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the internal structure of a locker provided in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, a detachable partition 24 is provided in the locker, and the partition 24 and the locker body 23 are made of non-metallic material.

[0056] Specifically, a plurality of partitions 24 may be provided in the locker, and each partition 24 may be detachably installed inside the locker body 23. For example, by providing a card slot inside the locker body 23, the partition 24 is push-pull installed in the locker body 23, or by providing an elastic element at the edge of the partition 24, the partition 24 is installed in the locker body 23 through the interaction force between the elastic element and the locker body 23. By installing the partition 24 in the locker, it is possible to effectively avoid conflicts in RFID signal reading caused by the close distance between the objects 5 carrying RFID tags, thereby affecting the monitoring effect of the presence status.

[0057] In addition, in order to prevent metal materials from shielding radio frequency signals and affecting the transmission of tag data, in the embodiment of the present invention, the locker body and the partition are both made of non-metallic materials, such as acrylic, plastic, etc.

[0058] Based on any of the above embodiments, Figure 4 The front view of the safe provided by the embodiment of the present invention is as follows Figure 4As shown, the middle part 11 of the safe is a control console, including a display module 6 and an identity recognition module 3, and the upper part is a monitoring video device 7. The left and right sides 12 of the middle part 11 are respectively provided with 9 lockers 2. A maintenance channel 8 is provided between each row of lockers 2 to facilitate maintenance and replacement of equipment in the safe, such as the partitions, door switches, RFID monitoring modules, etc. of the lockers when they fail. Among them, the display module 6 can be used to display the information of the items stored in each locker, and can also be used to display the operation instructions of the safe. The monitoring video device 7 is used to shoot the actions of the user so as to trace back when the items in the cabinet are lost. The safe is 1.9 meters high as a whole, each locker 2 is 0.6 meters wide, and the middle part 11 is 0.6 meters wide. It should be noted that the size of the safe and the locker 2 can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0059] refer to Figure 3 The internal structure of the locker 2 is shown, and the interior of the locker 2 can be divided by a partition 24. The upper part of the locker 2 is 0.4 meters high and is used to place files, which are stored separately through the vertically installed partition 24; the lower part of the locker 2 is 0.2 meters high and is used to place notebooks, mobile storage media, adapters, etc. Among them, the documents, notebooks, mobile storage media and other items 5 that need to be monitored in place are attached with RFID tags. Figure 5 A side view of a locker provided in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, a partition board 24 parallel to the back side is installed 0.1 meters away from the back side of the locker 2, i.e., the side opposite to the door 21, so as to separate a part of the space of the locker 2 for placing the RFID antenna 42.

[0060] In addition, the safe also includes an RFID reader and a control module. The RFID reader is arranged in the middle part 11 of the cabinet. Furthermore, the RFID reader can be arranged in the locker 2 of the middle part 11, or in the drawer of the bottom layer of the middle part 11. A switch is arranged between the drawer and the cabinet, and the switch needs to be turned on through identity recognition such as face recognition or password recognition, so that maintenance personnel can open the drawer to set, take and repair the RFID reader. The RFID reader reads the tag data of the items 5 carrying RFID tags in each locker 2 through the RFID antenna 42 at a set frequency, and transmits it to the control module through the network. The control module obtains the information of the items 5 carrying RFID tags currently stored in each locker 2 through all the received tag data, thereby determining the presence of each item 5.

[0061] In addition, the user can also input identity information such as fingerprint information and password information through the identity recognition module 3, and then the identity recognition module 3 sends the identity information to the control module. The control module can determine whether the door switch 22 of each locker 2 is open based on the received identity information, and send a control signal to the door switch 22 that needs to be opened. The control module can also record the opening and closing time of the door 21 of each locker 2, and the corresponding identity information.

[0062] The safe provided in the embodiment of the present invention realizes the centralized storage of items by arranging a plurality of independent lockers in the cabinet body and controlling the cabinet door opening and closing by the identity information of the user, thereby reducing the difficulty of unified inventory of items and eliminating the possibility of staff with different permissions contacting items that are not within their personal permissions, thereby improving the security of item storage.

[0063] In addition, by setting up RFID readers and installing RFID tags on items, the tedious and complicated operation process of manual inventory is avoided, and the real-time monitoring of the item's status is realized. In addition, by setting up RFID antennas, the working range of RFID readers is effectively expanded. While ensuring that each locker in the safe is within the coverage of the radio frequency signal, the number of RFID readers in the safe is reduced, the cost of monitoring the status of the items is reduced, and the problem of tag data being read or missed due to multiple RFID readers reading the tag data of an RFID tag at the same time is avoided.

[0064] Furthermore, by setting up a control module, the user's identity information controls the cabinet door opening and closing, eliminating the possibility of staff with different permissions touching items that are not within their personal permissions, and improving the safety of item storage. In addition, real-time monitoring of the item's location is achieved, avoiding the tedious and complicated operation process of manual inventory.

[0065] Finally, by installing partitions in the lockers, it is possible to effectively avoid conflicts in RFID signal reading caused by the close distance between items carrying RFID tags, which would affect the monitoring effect of the on-site situation.

[0066] Based on any of the above embodiments, Figure 6 A flow chart of a control method based on a safe provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, the control method includes:

[0067] Step 610, based on the user's identity information obtained by the identity recognition module, control the door switch of each locker in the safe.

[0068] Specifically, the identity recognition module can be a face recognition device, a fingerprint recognition device, a voiceprint recognition device, or a password recognition device or a password recognition device and other devices with identity information acquisition functions. The identity recognition module can obtain the user's identity information through face recognition, fingerprint recognition, voiceprint recognition, password login or password matching. The identity information can be the user's name, position, activation permissions, etc., and the embodiments of the present invention do not specifically limit this.

[0069] After obtaining the identity information acquired by the identity recognition module, it is possible to determine whether the door switch of each locker is open based on the identity information, and send a control signal to the door switch that needs to be opened. After receiving the control signal indicating opening, any door switch opens the door. Here, the pre-set personnel identity information can be matched with the received identity information to determine whether the current user has the authority to open the locker. The received identity information, such as the user's level, can also be compared with the preset opening permissions of different levels to determine whether the user has the authority to open the locker, and which lockers the user has the authority to open. The embodiment of the present invention does not specifically limit this.

[0070] And / or, step 620, based on the tag data of the items carrying the RFID tags stored in each locker acquired by the RFID monitoring module, the presence status of each item is monitored in real time.

[0071] Specifically, the RFID monitoring module is a device that automatically and contactlessly identifies items carrying RFID tags based on RFID technology. In order to monitor the presence of items in the cabinet in real time, it is necessary to ensure that the working area of ​​the RFID monitoring module can cover every locker in the cabinet that stores items that need to be monitored for presence, and to attach RFID tags to the items that need to be monitored for presence. The RFID tag stores tag data, which is used to reflect relevant information about the item, such as the name of the item, the type of item, etc. When the RFID tag is in the working area of ​​the RFID monitoring module, an induced current is generated, and the tag data is sent out through the built-in transmitting antenna of the RFID tag. After receiving the carrier signal sent by the RFID tag, the RFID monitoring module extracts the tag data from the carrier signal.

[0072] After obtaining the tag data of the items with RFID tags stored in each locker acquired by the RFID monitoring module, the information of the items with RFID tags currently stored in each locker can be obtained based on all the tag data, so as to determine the presence status of each item and realize the presence status monitoring of the items.

[0073] It should be noted that the control method provided in the embodiment of the present invention can execute step 610 alone, can execute step 620 alone, or can execute step 610 and step 620. The embodiment of the present invention does not specifically limit the execution order of step 610 and step 620. Step 610 is executed after the user inputs the identity information through the identity recognition device, and step 620 can update the presence status of each item according to the frequency of the RFID monitoring module obtaining the tag data. Step 620 can be executed in real time or according to a preset update frequency.

[0074] The control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention controls the cabinet door switch based on the user's identity information, thereby eliminating the possibility that staff with different permissions can access items that are not within their personal permissions, thereby improving the safety of item storage. In addition, real-time monitoring of the item's location is achieved, avoiding the cumbersome and complicated operation process of manual inventory.

[0075] Based on any of the above embodiments, in the control method, step 610 specifically includes:

[0076] Step 611, based on the identity information of the user obtained by the identity recognition module, obtain the user's opening authority.

[0077] Here, the opening authority specifically indicates the lockers that the user can open and / or the items that the user can obtain. For example, the user's opening authority can be obtained by matching the received identity information with the preset personal identity information, or the received identity information, such as the user's level, with the preset opening authorities of different levels, so as to know which lockers the user has the authority to open.

[0078] Step 612, based on the opening authority and the target locker and / or target item of the user obtained by the selection module, control the door switch of the target locker.

[0079] Specifically, the selection module can be a device with input function such as a keyboard, a touch screen, etc., and the user can input the target locker and / or the target item through the selection module. The target locker is the locker that the user wants to open, and the target item is the item stored in the locker that the user wants to obtain.

[0080] After obtaining the target locker and / or target item acquired by the selection module, the target locker and / or target item are compared with the user's opening authority to determine whether the user has the authority to open the target locker and / or the locker where the target item is located, thereby controlling the door switch of the target locker and / or the locker where the target item is located.

[0081] For example, if the user is a second-level manager through the identity recognition module, according to the pre-set correspondence between personnel level and opening authority, it is known that the user's opening authority as a second-level manager is locker A, locker C and locker F. Assuming that the user's target locker is known through the selection module, and the user has the authority to open the target locker, the door switch of locker A is controlled to open; assuming that the user's target locker is known through the selection module, and the user does not have the authority to open the target locker, the control signal for instructing to open is not sent to locker B, so that the door switch of locker B remains locked.

[0082] The control method provided in the embodiment of the present invention obtains the user's needs and directly narrows the association between the user's identity information and each door switch to the association between the user's identity information and the door switch of the target locker and / or the locker where the target item is located, thereby avoiding the security problem caused by blindly opening the locker that the user has the opening authority but does not need to be opened by the user.

[0083] Based on any of the above embodiments, in the control method, after step 620, it also includes: if the presence status of any item changes from being present to being absent, obtaining the user's lending authority for the item; if the lending authority is to allow lending, recording the lending information of the item; if the lending authority is not to allow lending, issuing an alarm message; the alarm message includes at least one of the item information, the most recent presence time and the associated identity information of the item.

[0084] Specifically, after the door switch of any locker is controlled to be turned on, the user may take out items from the locker. When the presence status of any item changes from being present to being absent, that is, the item has been taken out of the locker, it is necessary to obtain the lending authority of the item for the user who used the locker during this period. Here, the lending authority for the item is pre-set and is used to indicate whether the user has the right to take out and borrow the item from the locker.

[0085] If the user's lending authority for the item is allowed to lend, that is, the user has the right to take out and borrow the item from the locker, then the lending information of the item is recorded. The lending information may be the time when the user took out the item, the user's identity information, and the pre-set latest return time, etc., which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present invention. If the user's lending authority for the item is not allowed to lend, that is, the user has no right to take out and borrow the item from the locker, then the above behavior is confirmed to be abnormal behavior and an alarm message is issued. Here, the alarm message may include the item information of the item, such as the name of the item, the confidentiality level, etc., and may also include the most recent time the item was in place, that is, the time when the item was taken out illegally, and may also include associated identity information, that is, the identity information of the user who opened the locker where the item is located, etc., which is not specifically limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0086] The control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention can effectively improve the security of the items stored in the safe by judging the user's lending authority, timely discovering abnormal behavior and issuing an alarm. At the same time, the alarm information is directly associated with the user's identity information, which helps to quickly locate suspicious persons and retrieve lost items in time.

[0087] Based on any of the above embodiments, in the control method, after step 620, it also includes: if the presence status of any item continues to be absent for a period exceeding the preset loan time, an alarm message is issued; the alarm message includes at least one of the item information, the most recent presence time and the associated identity information of the item.

[0088] Specifically, the time during which the presence of any item continues to be absent is the time when the item is loaned out. The preset loan time is the maximum length of time that the item can be loaned out, which is preset. If the presence of any item continues to be absent for a period exceeding the preset loan time, that is, the item is overdue, an alarm message is issued. Here, the alarm message may include item information of the item, such as the name of the item, the confidentiality level, etc., and may also include the most recent presence time of the item, that is, the time when the item was illegally taken out, and may also include associated identity information, that is, the identity information of the user who opened the locker where the item is located, etc., and the embodiments of the present invention do not specifically limit this.
