[0054] In order to make the technical problems solved by the present invention, the technical solutions adopted and the technical effects achieved clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only 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 those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0055] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside" and the like indicate positions or positional relationships based on the positions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance. Among them, the terms "first position" and "second position" are two different positions.

[0056] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection or a detachable connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, and it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0057] like Figures 1 to 11 As shown, this embodiment provides a clothes drying assembly, which can be applied to an electric clothes drying machine to improve the stability of clothes drying and provide a good user experience. The clothes drying assembly includes a clothes rod 1, a clothes rod 2 and a connecting assembly 3.

[0058] Among them, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 The clothes rod 2 is arranged under the clothes rod 1 in a liftable manner and can be lifted and lowered to switch between a storage position and a drying position. Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 The connecting assembly 3 includes a first guide rail 31 and a second guide rail 32 which are slidably connected in a vertical direction. The first guide rail 31 is slidably connected to the end of the clothes rod 1, and the second guide rail 32 is connected to the end of the clothes rod 2. The overlapping length of the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32 is adjustable so that the clothes rod 2 can be raised and lowered and switched between the storage position and the drying position relative to the clothes rod 1.

[0059] The clothes drying assembly provided in this embodiment is provided with the rod 2 in the storage position (such as Figure 1 When the quilt rod 2 is used to dry large items such as quilts, the quilt rod 2 is pulled downward to slide the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32 relative to each other, and the overlapping length of the two becomes shorter until the quilt rod 2 is unfolded to the drying position (as shown in FIG. Figure 3As shown). Since the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32 can only slide relative to each other in the vertical direction, the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32 can no longer swing relative to each other after the rod 2 is unfolded, thereby ensuring that the rod 2 is always in the drying position after being unfolded, preventing the rod 2 from shaking and generating noise during the drying process, and preventing the clothes being dried from falling, effectively improving the drying stability of the clothes drying machine and enhancing the user experience. When the rod 2 is retracted again, since the first guide rail 31 is slidably connected to the end of the clothes rod 1, the rod 2 can rise to fit with the clothes rod 1, reducing the space occupied by the rod 2 after being retracted, making the exterior of the clothes drying machine more neat and beautiful.

[0060] Optionally, see Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The connecting assembly 3 also includes a guide component 33, and the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32 are both slidably connected to the guide component 33. When adjusting the position of the rod 2, the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32 slide relative to the guide component 33. The guide component 33 can limit and guide the sliding direction of the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32, so that the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32 can only slide relative to each other in the vertical direction, thereby improving the lifting and lowering stability of the rod 2. At the same time, the existence of the guide component 33 can limit the swing of the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32, prevent the rod 2 from shaking after it is unfolded, and improve the stability when drying clothes. Figure 6 , exemplarily, the guide component 33 is a rectangular block structure extending in the vertical direction.

[0061] Further, see Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The first guide groove 331 and the second guide groove 332 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the guide member 33. The first guide rail 31 is movably arranged in the first guide groove 331 along the vertical direction and can slide to be received in the first guide groove 331 (such as Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the second guide rail 32 is movably arranged in the second guide groove 332 in the vertical direction. With such an arrangement, the forces on both sides of the guide component 33 can be evenly applied, further improving the lifting and lowering stability of the rod 2 during the unfolding and storage process. At the same time, when the rod 2 rises to the storage position, the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32 can overlap with the guide component 33, thereby hiding the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32, reducing the overall volume of the connecting assembly 3, saving floor space, and facilitating the thin design of the clothes drying machine. The existence of the first guide groove 331 and the second guide groove 332 can accurately guide the sliding direction of the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32, and prevent the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32 from being skewed relative to the guide component 33.

[0062] Optionally, see Fig. 9The two opposite inner side walls of the first guide groove 331 are both provided with guide grooves 3311, and the two opposite side edges of the first guide rail 31 are correspondingly inserted into the two guide grooves 3311 and slide in cooperation with the guide grooves 3311. The provision of the guide grooves 3311 can further limit the sliding direction of the first guide rail 31, prevent the first guide rail 31 from being displaced when sliding in the first guide groove 331, ensure that the first guide rail 31 can only slide in the vertical direction, and improve the stability of the rod 2 after it is unfolded to the drying position.

[0063] Optionally, see Figure 8 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The first guide rail 31 is provided with a first slide groove 313 extending in the vertical direction, and a slider 131 is provided at the end of the clothes rod 1. The slider 131 is clamped in the first slide groove 313 and slidably cooperates with the first slide groove 313 to achieve a sliding connection between the first guide rail 31 and the clothes rod 1. The cooperation between the first slide groove 313 and the slider 131 enables the first guide rail 31 to slide relative to the clothes rod 1 only in the vertical direction, ensuring that the rod 2 can rise and be stored under the clothes rod 1 in a preset direction and fit with the clothes rod 1.

[0064] Further, see Figure 6 and Figure 8 The end of the slider 131 extending out of the first slide slot 313 is detachably connected to a stopper 132, which can prevent the slider 131 from being separated from the first slide slot 313, thereby ensuring the connection stability between the first guide rail 31 and the clothes rod 1. Exemplarily, the stopper 132 is fixed to the slider 131 by fasteners such as screws, which is convenient for assembly and disassembly, and is conducive to the quick connection between the first guide rail 31 and the clothes rod 1.

[0065] Optionally, see Figure 2 and Figure 7 , the side of the first guide groove 331 facing the clothes rod 1 is in an open state, and the slider 131 can slide into the first guide groove 331 through the top of the first guide groove 331, so that the rod 2 is fitted with the clothes rod 1. That is, in the process of the rod 2 rising to the storage position, after the first guide rail 31 is slid and stored in the first guide groove 331, when the rod 2 continues to rise, the slider 131 gradually slides into the first guide groove 331 through the upper end of the first guide groove 331 until the rod 2 is fitted with the clothes rod 1. Such a configuration allows the rod 2 to fit closely with the clothes rod 1, reduces the overall thickness of the clothes drying assembly after the rod 2 is stored, and ensures that a clothes hanger can still be hung on the clothes rod 1 after the rod 2 is stored to dry clothes.

[0066] Optionally, see 6. Figure 8 and Fig. 9A first limiting portion 311 is provided at one end of the first guide rail 31, and a limiting flange 312 is provided at the other end. A limiting groove 333 connected to the first guide groove 331 is provided on the guide component 33. When the rod 2 is in the drying position, the first limiting portion 311 is clamped in the limiting groove 333, and the limiting flange 312 stops at the clothes rod 1. A supporting portion 334 is provided at the upper end of the first guide groove 331 on the guide component 33. When the rod 2 is in the storage position, the limiting flange 312 stops at the supporting portion 334. The cooperation between the first limiting portion 311 and the limiting groove 333 can prevent the first guide rail 31 from detaching from the guide component 33 after the rod 2 is unfolded to the drying position, and the cooperation between the limiting flange 312 and the supporting portion 334 can prevent the first guide rail 31 from detaching from the guide component 33 after the rod 2 is stored in the storage position, thereby ensuring the connection stability between the first guide rail 31 and the guide component 33. In addition, when the clothes rod 2 is in the drying position, the limiting flange 312 stops at the clothes rod 1, which can reduce the force between the slider 131 and the first slide groove 313, prevent the first guide rail 31 from being damaged, and improve the connection stability between the first guide rail 31 and the clothes rod 1. Figure 6 As shown, the limiting flange 312 overlaps the top surface of the slider 131 .

[0067] Exemplarily, the first limiting portion 311 is a lug protruding from the side of the first guide rail 31, and a lug is provided on each of the opposite sides of the end of the first guide rail 31. Correspondingly, two limiting grooves 333 are provided on the guide component 33 to ensure that the first guide rail 31 and the guide component 33 are firmly connected.

[0068] Further, see Figure 2 and Figure 7 The support portion 334 is a support arm disposed on one side of the opening of the first guide slot 331, and the limiting flange 312 can overlap the top of the support arm to prevent the first guide rail 31 from moving downwardly relative to the guide member 33. In this embodiment, the top of the support portion 334 is slightly lower than the top of the guide member 33, so that after the limiting flange 312 overlaps the support portion 334, the top surface of the limiting flange 312 is flush with the top surface of the guide member 33, making the exterior of the connection assembly 3 more neat.

[0069] Optionally, the clothes drying assembly further comprises a first fastener, see Figure 8 and Fig. 9The second guide rail 32 is provided with a second limiting portion 321 at one end and a mounting hole 322 at the other end. A stopper 335 is formed on the guide component 33 at the upper end of the second guide groove 332. When the rod 2 is in the drying position, the second limiting portion 321 stops at the stopper 335. The first fastener passes through the mounting hole 322 and is connected to the rod 2 to achieve the fixed connection between the second guide rail 32 and the rod 2. The cooperation between the second limiting portion 321 and the stopper 335 can prevent the second guide rail 32 from being separated from the guide component 33 after the rod 2 is unfolded to the drying position, thereby ensuring the connection stability between the second guide rail 32 and the guide component 33.

[0070] Exemplarily, the first fastener is a screw, and a threaded hole is provided at the end of the rod 2 . After the screw passes through the mounting hole 322 and is tightened in the threaded hole, the second guide rail 32 can be fixed to the end of the rod 2 .

[0071] Optionally, see Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The second guide rail 32 is provided with a second slide groove 323 extending in the vertical direction, and the guide member 33 is provided with a second fastener, which is inserted into the second slide groove 323 and can slide with the second slide groove 323. The second fastener can limit the second guide rail 32 to the guide member 33, and reduce the force between the second limiting portion 321 and the stopper 335. On the other hand, when the second guide rail 32 slides relative to the guide member 33, the second fastener slides with the second slide groove 323 to limit the sliding direction of the second guide rail 32, prevent the second guide rail 32 from moving in the second guide groove 332, and improve the sliding accuracy of the second guide rail 32.

[0072] For example, see Figure 8 The guide member 33 is provided with a first through hole 336 on the outer side of the second guide groove 332, see Fig. 9 A first connecting hole 337 opposite to the first through hole 336 is provided on the inner side of the second guide groove 332 of the guide component 33. The second fastener is a screw, which passes through the first through hole 336 and the second slide groove 323 in sequence and is screwed into the first connecting hole 337.

[0073] Further, see Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 7The connection assembly 3 further includes a protective shell 34, which is covered on the outside of the guide component 33 and defines a receiving cavity 35 between the protective shell 34 and the guide component 33, and the second guide rail 32 can be slidably received in the receiving cavity 35. The provision of the protective shell 34 can further limit the sliding direction of the second guide rail 32 on the one hand, and improve the sliding stability of the second guide rail 32 relative to the guide component 33. On the other hand, the protective shell 34 can shield the first guide rail 31, the second guide rail 32 and the guide component 33, making the exterior of the connection assembly 3 neater, and at the same time preventing the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32 from being stuck at the sliding connection position with the guide component 33, thereby improving the safety of the clothes drying machine.

[0074] Further, see Figure 8 A second through hole 341 opposite to the first through hole 336 is provided on the protective shell 34. The second fastener passes through the second through hole 341, the first through hole 336, and the second slide groove 323 in sequence and is screwed into the first connecting hole 337. This can increase the connection stability between the protective shell 34 and the guide component 33.

[0075] Optionally, see Figure 4 and Figure 6 The clothes drying assembly further includes a first stopper and a second stopper 5. One of the clothes rod 1 and the rod 2 is provided with the first stopper, and the other is provided with the second stopper 5. When the rod 2 rises to the storage position, the first stopper can be engaged with the second stopper 5 for position limiting. The engagement of the first stopper and the second stopper 5 can securely fix the rod 2 after storage, thereby ensuring the safety of the clothes drying machine.

[0076] Optionally, see Figure 4 The first stopper includes a clamping portion 41 protruding from the clothes rod 1, see Figure 6 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The second stopper 5 includes a first elastic sheet 51 and a second elastic sheet 52 arranged opposite to each other, and a clamping space 54 is defined between the first elastic sheet 51 and the second elastic sheet 52. The clamping portion 41 can be clamped into or out of the clamping space 54. Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the cross-section of the clamping portion 41 is approximately rhombus-shaped, and the entrance size of the clamping space 54 is smaller than the cross-sectional size of the clamping portion 41. During the clamping process of the clamping portion 41, the first elastic sheet 51 and the second elastic sheet 52 can be stretched apart. When the clamping portion 41 is clamped into place, the first elastic sheet 51 and the second elastic sheet 52 return to their original positions to limit the clamping portion 41 in the clamping space 54, thereby limiting the rod 2.

[0077] In another alternative embodiment, see Figure 5The clamping portion 41 of the first limiting member can also be set on the clothes rod 2, and the second limiting member 5 can be installed on the clothes rod 1, which can also achieve the clamping and limiting of the clothes rod 2 after it is stored, ensuring that the clothes rod 2 is firmly fixed.

[0078] In this embodiment, refer to Fig. 9 The first spring piece 51 and the second spring piece 52 are symmetrically arranged and bent in an S shape, and a clamping space 54 with a bell mouth is formed between the two. The bell mouth is conducive to the clamping part 41 to be smoothly clamped into the clamping space 54. The clamping part 41 is a diamond column, and an inclined guide surface is formed on the outside thereof, which plays a guiding role and is conducive to the clamping part 41 to be smoothly clamped into and out of the clamping space 54.

[0079] Continue reading Fig. 9 The second stopper 5 further includes a connecting plate 53, and the first spring piece 51 and the second spring piece 52 are respectively arranged at two ends of the connecting plate 53. In this embodiment, the first spring piece 51, the connecting plate 53 and the second spring piece 52 are integrally bent and formed, which can simplify the parts processing steps and reduce the number of parts.

[0080] Optionally, see Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The end of the clothes rod 1 is connected to the first terminal 13, and the clamping portion 51 is provided at the first terminal 13 and is integrally formed with the first terminal 13, which is convenient for processing and can reduce the number of parts. In other embodiments, the clamping portion 41 and the first terminal 13 can also be designed as a split type and assembled together later. The end of the rod 2 is connected to the second terminal 23, and the second terminal 23 is provided with a mounting groove 231, and the second stopper 5 is fixed in the mounting groove 231.

[0081] See also Fig. 9 and Fig.10 A third connecting hole 531 is provided on the connecting plate 53, a connecting beam is provided in the mounting groove 231 of the second end head 23, a third fastener 232 is provided on the connecting beam, and the third fastener 232 is passed through and connected to the third connecting hole 531 to realize the installation and fixation of the second limiting member 5 in the mounting groove 231.

[0082] Further, see Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The second end 23 is covered with a decorative shell 24. The setting of the decorative shell 24 can make the end of the rod 2 more neat and beautiful. At the same time, the decorative shell 24 can be used as a gripping part when the user pulls down the rod 2, which is convenient for the user to hold and apply force, and the operation is more labor-saving.

[0083] In this embodiment, the second guide rail 32 is connected and fixed to the second end 23, and the decorative shell 24 is connected and fixed to the second end 23. Figure 8A second connecting hole 233 (i.e., the threaded hole at the end of the rod 2) is provided at the end of the second terminal 23, and a third through hole 242 opposite to the second connecting hole 233 is provided at the end of the decorative shell 24. The first fastener passes through the third through hole 242 and the mounting hole 322 on the second guide rail 32 in sequence, and is screwed into the second connecting hole 233 to achieve the connection and fixation of the second guide rail 32, the decorative shell 24 and the second terminal 23.

[0084] Exemplarily, two mounting holes 322, two second connection holes 233 and two third through holes 242 are provided to ensure the connection stability among the second guide rail 32, the decorative shell 24 and the second end 23. Both mounting holes 322 are holes with one end open, which is convenient for inserting the first fastener.

[0085] Further, see Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The decorative shell 24 is provided with a slot 241, and the second guide rail 32 is inserted into the decorative shell 24 through the slot 241 to be connected and fixed with the second end 23 in the decorative shell 24. The decorative shell 24 is also provided with an avoidance notch 243, which is opposite to the mounting groove 231 on the second end 23, so that the second limiting member 5 can be exposed, so that the clamping portion 41 and the second limiting member 5 can be clamped and limited.

[0086] Optionally, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The clothes rod 1 includes a first main rod 11 and a first telescopic rod 12 which are slidably connected, a first guide rail 31 is slidably connected to the first telescopic rod 12, and the clothes rod 2 includes a second main rod 21 and a second telescopic rod 22 which are slidably connected, and the second guide rail 32 is connected to the second telescopic rod 22. In this embodiment, both ends of the first main rod 11 are connected to the first telescopic rod 12, and both ends of the second main rod 21 are connected to the second telescopic rod 22, so that the clothes rod 1 and the clothes rod 2 are evenly stressed after being stretched to prevent eccentric loading. At the same time, the existence of the telescopic rod can expand the drying range of the clothes rod 1 and the clothes rod 2, so that the clothes drying assembly can dry more clothes and large quilts.

[0087] After being received by the rod 2, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first end 13 is aligned with the first main rod 11, and the decorative shell 24 outside the second end 23 is aligned with the second main rod 21, so that the ends of the clothing rod 1 and the clothes rod 2 are more neat and beautiful. In addition, when the first telescopic rod 12 and the second telescopic rod 22 are pulled out or retracted, the decorative shell 24 can be used as a gripping part, which is convenient for the user to grip and pull the second telescopic rod 22.

[0088] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, when it is necessary to dry the quilt, bed sheet or quilt cover, pull the quilt rod 2 downward to disengage the clamping portion 41 of the first limiting member from the clamping space 54 of the second limiting member 5, thereby releasing the limitation of the quilt rod 2, and the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32 slide and unfold in the vertical direction relative to the guide member 33 until the quilt rod 2 drops to the drying position, and then pull out the first telescopic rod 12 and the second telescopic rod 22.

[0089] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, one set of clothes rods 1 and quilt rods 2 is provided. In other embodiments, two sets of clothes rods 1 and quilt rods 2 may be provided to further expand the drying capacity of the clothes drying machine.

[0090] Optionally, see Figure 8 and Fig.10 The first main rod 11 of the clothes rod 1 is concavely provided with a receiving groove along its extension direction, and the side of the rod 2 facing the clothes rod 1 is a convex arc surface. When the rod 2 is stored in the storage position, the convex arc surface of the rod 2 fits with the bottom of the receiving groove, so that the clothes rod 1 and the rod 2 appear to be integrated from the outside, thereby reducing the overall thickness of the clothes drying assembly after the rod 2 is stored, ensuring that it does not affect the hanging of clothes hangers on the clothes rod 1. At the same time, the space occupied by the rod 2 after being stored can be reduced, which is beneficial to the ultra-thin design of the clothes drying machine and further improves the aesthetics of the clothes drying machine.

[0091] Optionally, both the first main rod 11 and the second main rod 21 are tubular structures, and a first guide sleeve 14 is provided at one end of the first telescopic rod 12 located in the first main rod 11, and the first guide sleeve 14 is slidably matched with the inner wall of the first main rod 11, and a second guide sleeve 25 is provided at one end of the second telescopic rod 22 located in the second main rod 21, and the second guide sleeve 25 is slidably matched with the inner wall of the second main rod 21. The provision of the first guide sleeve 14 and the second guide sleeve 25 makes the telescopic movement between the first telescopic rod 12 and the first main rod 11, and between the second telescopic rod 22 and the second main rod 21 smoother, and can avoid telescopic jamming.

[0092] In this embodiment, two first guide sleeves 14 are disposed at intervals on the first telescopic rod 12 , and two second guide sleeves 25 are disposed at intervals on the second telescopic rod 22 , so as to further increase the smoothness of telescopic movement of the first telescopic rod 12 and the second telescopic rod 22 .

[0093] Further, see Fig.11, a first magnetic member 141 is provided on the first guide sleeve 14 at the end of the first telescopic rod 12, and a second magnetic member 251 is provided on the second guide sleeve 25 at the end of the second telescopic rod 22. The first magnetic member 141 can be magnetically attracted to the second magnetic member 251 so that the rod 2 fits with the clothes rod 1. When the rod 2 rises to the storage position, the first guide sleeve 14 and the second guide sleeve 25 are relative and close to each other and are located in the middle of the clothes drying assembly. Under the magnetic attraction of the first magnetic member 141 and the second magnetic member 251, the rod 2 can fit more closely under the clothes rod 1 to avoid a large gap, further reducing the overall thickness of the clothes drying assembly after storage. In addition, the cooperation of the first magnetic member 141 and the second magnetic member 251 can further improve the fixing stability of the rod 2 after storage, making the clothes drying machine safer to use.

[0094] Optionally, the first guide sleeve 14 and the second guide sleeve 25 are both provided with slots, and the first magnetic member 141 and the second magnetic member 251 are respectively engaged and located in the corresponding slots.

[0095] Optionally, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The clothes rod 1 is provided with a clothes hanging part 15, and the clothes hanging part 15 is provided with a clothes hanging groove 151, and the clothes hanging groove 151 is configured as a hook for hanging a hanger. Compared with the clothes hanging hole in the prior art, the clothes hanging groove 151 can adapt to the hooks of hangers of different specifications, and has good versatility. In addition, hanging the hanger in the clothes hanging groove 151 can reduce the probability of collision and friction between the hook and the clothes rod 1, making it convenient to hang and reducing noise.

[0096] This embodiment also provides a clothes drying machine, comprising a main machine, a traction assembly and the clothes drying assembly as described above, wherein one end of the traction assembly is connected to the main machine, and the other end is connected to the clothes drying assembly. The traction assembly may include a steel wire rope, and a winding device is provided in the main machine. By winding the steel wire rope, the height of the clothes rod 1 and the clothes rod 2 can be adjusted to facilitate users to dry or collect clothes.

[0097] Optionally, a storage slot can be provided on the housing of the main unit, and when the clothes drying assembly rises to the storage position, the connecting assembly 3 can be inserted into the storage slot as a whole to achieve a hidden effect, thereby further improving the external aesthetics of the clothes drying machine.

[0098] In the clothes drying machine using the clothes drying assembly, since the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32 can only slide relative to each other in the vertical direction, the first guide rail 31 and the second guide rail 32 can no longer swing relative to each other after the rod 2 is unfolded, so that the rod 2 can always be in the drying position after being unfolded, and the noise caused by the shaking of the rod 2 during the drying process can be prevented, and the clothes being dried can be prevented from falling, which effectively improves the drying stability of the clothes drying machine and enhances the user experience. When the rod 2 is retracted again, since the first guide rail 31 is slidably connected to the end of the clothes rod 1, the rod 2 can rise to fit with the clothes rod 1, reducing the space occupied by the rod 2 after being retracted, making the exterior of the clothes drying machine more neat and beautiful.
