The detailed description of the embodiments and the accompanying drawings are used to illustrate the principles of this disclosure by way of example, but should not be used to limit the scope of this disclosure. This disclosure can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.

[0030] These embodiments are provided to make the disclosure thorough and complete, and to fully express the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement of components and steps, material composition, numerical expressions, and values ​​set forth in these embodiments should be interpreted as exemplary only and not as limiting.

[0031] It should be noted that, in the description of this disclosure, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more; the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating orientation or positional relationship, are only for the convenience of describing this disclosure and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this disclosure. When the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship may also change accordingly.

[0032] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and similar terms used in this disclosure do not indicate any order, quantity, or importance, but are merely used to distinguish different parts. "Vertical" is not strictly vertical, but within the permissible margin of error. "Parallel" is not strictly parallel, but within the permissible margin of error. Terms such as "including" or "contains" mean that the element preceding the word encompasses the element listed after the word, and do not exclude the possibility of encompassing other elements as well.

[0033] It should also be noted that, in the description of this disclosure, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installed," "connected," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly.

[0034] All terms used in this disclosure have the same meaning as understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains, unless otherwise specifically defined. It should also be understood that terms defined in general dictionaries should be interpreted as having meanings consistent with their meanings in the context of the relevant art, and not as idealized or highly formalized, unless expressly defined herein.

[0035] Techniques, methods, and equipment known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, they should be considered part of the specification.

[0036] Electronic devices can be unfolded and folded by rotating between different components, thereby improving their portability while maintaining their display area.

[0037] Electrical signals are transmitted between the relatively rotating bodies via connecting lines. During the unfolding and folding of electronic devices, the connecting lines are prone to excessive bending, which may lead to breakage or poor contact. To address this, existing technologies have added a spring-type winding mechanism to enable winding and unwinding of the lines.

[0038] However, the spring-loaded winding mechanism occupies additional internal space in the electronic device, thus affecting the arrangement of other structures within the device.

[0039] This disclosure relates to an electronic device, which may include a first body, a second body, and a connecting wire. The second body is rotatably connected to the first body to change the angle between them. The second body may have a first functional component with a first function, which performs the first function when powered on. The two ends of the connecting wire can be connected to the first and second bodies respectively to enable data exchange between them. The connecting wire may have an elastic bending section to support the rotation of the second and first bodies. During the relative rotation of the first and second bodies, the elastic bending section can undergo elastic deformation along a preset elastic deformation path under the constraint of the first functional component. Here, the elastic bending section of the connecting wire is elastic and can cooperate with the first functional component to undergo a preset deformation, allowing the first functional component to form a take-up mechanism. In this way, the first functional component in the electronic device can be reused to form a take-up mechanism, reducing the space occupied by the take-up mechanism within the electronic device and allowing for a more rational arrangement of other structures.

[0040] This disclosure provides an electronic device 100, see [link to previous document]. Figures 1 to 9 The electronic device 100 may include: a first body 10, a second body 20, and a connecting line 30. The second body 20 may be rotatably connected to the first body 10, and the second body 20 may be provided with a first functional component 40 having a first function, which can be realized by consuming electrical energy. The first end 301 of the connecting line 30 may be connected to the first body 10, and the second end 302 may be connected to the second body 20. There may be an elastically bent section 303 with a bent shape between the first end 301 and the second end 302 of the connecting line 30. The first functional component 40 can limit the elastic deformation path of the elastically bent section 303 during the relative rotation of the first body 10 and the second body 20.

[0041] The first body 10 can be a display terminal with a display area, such as: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first body 10 can be a display end of a laptop computer with a display screen 101, and the display screen 101 has a display area; or, for example, the first body 10 can be a display end of a camera with a display screen; but this application is not limited to this, that is, those skilled in the art can adjust or set it according to specific needs.

[0042] The second body 20 is rotatably connected to the first body 10 to adjust the angle between the first body 10 and the second body 20 (e.g., 0 degrees, 60 degrees, 90 degrees, 120 degrees, etc.) and to place the electronic device 100 in different states (e.g., first state, second state, etc.). The second body 20 may be provided with a first functional component 40, which can perform a corresponding first function when powered by any of the first body 10, the second body 20, or an external power source. For example, the first functional component 40 may be a motherboard, which can be connected to electronic devices such as the central processing unit, memory card, graphics card, and sound card in the electronic device 100, and can exchange data with the electronic devices via a bus when powered on; or, for example, the first functional component 40 may be a power management board, which can be connected to the electronic devices in the electronic device 100 to control the current supply to the electronic devices; however, this application is not limited to these, that is, those skilled in the art can adjust or set it according to specific needs.

[0043] The connecting line 30 has two ends along its length, which can be a first end 301 and a second end 302. The first end 301 can be connected to the first body 10, and the second end 302 can be connected to the second body 20, so that the first body 10 and the second body 20 can transmit data to each other through the connecting line 30. The connecting wire 30 may have an elastically bent section 303 made of a bendable material between its first end 301 and second end 302. For example, the connecting wire 30 may be a flexible printed circuit (FPC), a flexible flat cable (FFC), a flexible die-cut circuit (FDC), an insulated laminated flexible flexible busbar, a liquid metal wire, a carbon nanotube wire, a graphene wire, a braided wire, a spiral wound wire, a flexible coaxial cable, a silicone wire, a polyurethane insulated wire, or a Teflon insulated wire. The elastic bending segment 303 may include materials such as polyimide or polyester film. The setting of the elastic bending segment 303 can support the rotation between the first body 10 and the second body 20, and the elastic bending segment 303 can deform along the surface of the first functional member 40, so that its deformation trajectory is guided and constrained by the first functional member 40.

[0044] In one example, electronic device 100 can be a laptop computer, see [link to example]. Figure 1 and Figure 2The first body 10 can be the display end of a laptop computer with a display screen 101, and the second body 20 can be the system end of a laptop computer with an input keyboard and a touch area. The two ends of the connecting cable 30 can be connected to the first body 10 and the second body 20 respectively to realize data transmission between the first body 10 and the second body 20. The first end 301 and the second end 302 of the connecting cable 30 can have an elastic bending segment 303 in a bent shape. The elastic bending segment 303 is elastic and can deform with the rotation of the first body 10 and the second body 20, thereby supporting the rotation between the first body 10 and the second body 20. The second body 20 can be provided with a first functional component 40 with a first function. The first function can be realized by consuming electrical energy. During the relative rotation of the first body 10 and the second body 20, the elastic bending segment 303 can deform along the surface of the first functional component 40 (the second surface 401 of the motherboard in the following text), so that the first functional component 40 can limit and guide the elastic deformation path of the elastic bending segment 303.

[0045] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an electronic device 100 (first state) provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an electronic device 100 (second state) provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure, and Figure 2 The dashed line in the diagram represents the position of the elastic bending segment 303 corresponding to the first state. See here for more details. Figure 1 In the first state, where the angle between the first body 10 and the second body 20 can be approximated as zero, the elastic bending segment 303 can be bent, and the portion near the second end 302 can adhere to the surface of the first functional component 40; see also Figure 2In the second state, the first body 10 and the second body 20 are at an angle greater than zero. At this state, the elastic bending segment 303 can still maintain a bent shape, and its local area near the second end 302 can still adhere to the surface of the first functional component 40. During the transition from the first state to the second state, as the first body 10 rotates forward relative to the second body 20, the portion of the elastic bending segment 303 near the second end 302 can move along the first functional component 40. The elastic bending segment 303 deforms and accumulates elastic potential energy, while the contact area between the elastic bending segment 303 and the first functional component 40 gradually decreases. Conversely, during the transition from the second state to the first state, as the first body 10 rotates in the opposite direction relative to the second body 20, the portion of the elastic bending segment 303 near the second end 302 can move along the first functional component 40. The accumulated elastic potential energy of the elastic bending segment 303 is released, allowing the elastic bending segment 303 to recover its deformation, and the contact area between the elastic bending segment 303 and the first functional component 40 gradually increases. Thus, the first functional component 40 can serve as a functional component of the electronic device 100, and also as a guide and limiting structure for the deformation path of the elastic bending segment 303, effectively constraining the deformation trajectory of the elastic bending segment 303 and improving the stability and durability of the connecting line 30 during repeated bending.

[0046] In this embodiment, the electronic device 100 may include: a first body 10, a second body 20, and a connecting line 30. The first body 10 can be rotatably connected to the second body 20. The two ends of the connecting line 30 can be connected to the first body 10 and the second body 20 respectively, so as to realize data and / or power transmission between the first body 10 and the second body 20. The two ends of the connecting line 30 may have an elastic bending section 303 with a bending shape. The elastic bending section 303 has elastic deformation capability and can adapt to the relative rotation between the first body 10 and the second body 20. At the same time, the second body 20 may be provided with a first functional component 40 (such as a motherboard or other functional components) with a first function. While realizing its original function, the first functional component 40 can be reused by the connecting line 30 as a deformation path limiting structure for the elastic bending section 303. In this way, the first functional component 40 can also serve as a wire take-up guide structure, which can effectively reduce the occupation of the internal space of the electronic device 100 by the additional wire take-up mechanism, which is conducive to optimizing the internal layout of the electronic device 100 and reserving more installation space for other functional modules.

[0047] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5The electronic device 100 may include: a first state and a second state; in the first state, the first body 10 and the second body 20 may have a first angle, and the elastic bending segment 303 may have a first elastic potential energy; in the second state, the first body 10 and the second body 20 may have a second angle greater than the first angle, and the elastic bending segment 303 may have a second elastic potential energy, which may be greater than the first elastic potential energy. During the transition from the second state to the first state, the elastic bending segment 303 may convert from the second elastic potential energy to the first elastic potential energy to drive the elastic bending segment 303 to reset.

[0048] The relative rotation of the first body 10 and the second body 20 allows the electronic device 100 to switch between a first state and a second state. The first state can be characterized by a small opening angle between the two bodies, while the second state can be characterized by a large opening angle between the two bodies. During the switch from the first state to the second state, as the angle between the two bodies increases, the elastic bending segment 303 can undergo controllable bending under the guidance of the first functional component 40 and the constraint of the deformation path, gradually accumulating elastic potential energy. During the return from the second state to the first state, the accumulated elastic potential energy is released, which can push the elastic bending segment 303 to spring back and reset.

[0049] In this embodiment, the elastic bending section 303 can realize signal and / or power transmission functions, and can also serve as energy storage and rebound drive functions, so that the connecting line 30 can be wound up more smoothly.

[0050] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The target structure 50 of the second body 20 may have a first surface 501, and the first functional component 40 may have a second surface 401. The first surface 501 may be opposite to the second surface 401. The two ends of the elastic bending segment 303 may respectively abut against the first surface 501 and the second surface 401, and there may be a bend between the two ends of the elastic bending segment 303. During the rotation of the first body 10 relative to the second body 20, the first functional component 40 may restrict the movement of the elastic bending segment 303 along the second surface 401.

[0051] In one example, the second body 20 can be the system end of a laptop computer, the target structure 50 can be an input device 60 with multiple buttons, the surface of the input device 60 facing away from the multiple pressing surfaces of the multiple buttons can be a first surface 501, the first functional member 40 can be disposed in the system end and opposite to the input device 60, and the surface of the first functional member 40 opposite to the first surface 501 can be a second surface 401, and a channel can be formed between the first surface 501 and the second surface 401; the two ends of the elastic bending segment 303 are bent to have a bend, and the two ends of the elastic bending segment 303 can respectively abut against the first surface 501 and the second surface 401; thus, during the rotation of the first body 10 relative to the second body 20, the elastic bending segment 303 can move along the second surface 401 of the first functional member 40, so as to realize that the first functional member 40 restricts and guides the deformation process of the elastic bending segment 303.

[0052] In another example, the second body 20 can be the system terminal of a laptop computer, and the target structure 50 can be a shell 201 with the system terminal. The inner surface of the shell 201 can be a first surface 501. The first functional component 40 can be disposed inside the system terminal and opposite to the inner surface of the shell 201. The surface of the first functional component 40 opposite to the first surface 501 can be a second surface 401, and a channel can be formed between the first surface 501 and the second surface 401. The two ends of the elastic bending segment 303 are bent to have a bend, and the two ends of the elastic bending segment 303 can respectively abut against the first surface 501 and the second surface 401. In this way, during the rotation of the first body 10 relative to the second body 20, the elastic bending segment 303 can move along the second surface 401 of the first functional component 40 to realize the restriction and guidance of the deformation process of the elastic bending segment 303 by the first functional component 40.

[0053] In this embodiment, the target structure 50 on the second body 20 can cooperate with the first functional component 40 to form a space for accommodating and deforming the elastic bending segment 303. The two ends of the elastic bending segment 303 can respectively abut against the two opposing surfaces of the target structure 50 and the first functional component 40. During the rotation of the first body 10 and the second body 20, the elastic bending segment 303 can move along the surface of the first functional component 40, so as to restrict and guide the deformation process of the elastic bending segment 303 by the first functional component 40.

[0054] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first functional component 40 can be a motherboard, on which a through hole 402 can be formed; the second end 302 can pass through the through hole 402, and the second end 302 can be attached to the side of the motherboard facing away from the second surface 401, and can be electrically connected to the motherboard.

[0055] The motherboard installed in the electronic device 100 can be connected to electronic devices such as a central processing unit, memory card, graphics card, and sound card. When powered on, it can exchange data with electronic devices via a bus. It can have a via 402. The second end 302 of the connecting cable 30 can pass through the via 402 from the side of the motherboard relative to the target structure 50 and pass through the surface of the motherboard facing away from the target structure 50. It can then be attached to the surface of the motherboard facing away from the target structure 50 and electrically connected to the motherboard.

[0056] In this embodiment, the motherboard can exchange data with electronic devices in the electronic device 100 via a bus, and can also serve as a take-up mechanism for the connecting line 30. The second end 302 of the connecting line 30 can pass through the via 402 on the motherboard and be attached to the surface of the motherboard facing away from the target structure 50. The attachment setting can make the connection between the connecting line 30 and the motherboard more stable and the signal more stable.

[0057] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 5 The second body 20 may be provided with a second functional component 70 having a second function. The second functional component 70 may be located at the edge of the second surface 401, extending toward the first surface 501, and may form a through hole 701 between it and the first surface 501. The second functional component 70 may be opposite to the elastic bending section 303. The first end 301 may pass through the through hole 701 and abut against the second functional component 70, so that the second functional component 70 generates a third function. The third function of the second functional component 70 is used to guide the movement of the elastic bending section 303 during the relative rotation of the first body 10 and the second body 20.

[0058] The second function of the second functional component 70 can be a signal transmission and reception function, a ventilation function, etc. The angle between the second functional component 70 and the second surface 401 can be an acute angle, a right angle, or an obtuse angle, and there can be a gap between the second functional component 70 and the first surface 501 so that a through hole 701 for the first end 301 of the connecting line 30 can be formed between the target structure 50 and the second functional component 70, and the connecting line 30 passing through the through hole 701 can abut against the second functional component 70 so that the second functional component 70 can generate a new function (such as a third function). This new function allows the second functional component 70 to guide the movement of the elastic bending segment 303 during the relative rotation of the first body 10 and the second body 20.

[0059] In this embodiment, a second functional component 70 may be provided on the second body 20. The second functional component 70 may have a second function, and may generate a third function different from the second function when the connecting line 30 is provided. The third function of the second functional component 70 may guide the movement of the elastic bending segment 303. Here, by reusing the setting of the second functional component 70, the number of parts on the second body 20 can be reduced, so that other functional devices can be arranged reasonably.

[0060] In some embodiments, the second functional component 70 may be provided with a transceiver module, and the second function is signal transceiver function; or, the second functional component 70 may be provided with a ventilation structure, and the second function is ventilation function.

[0061] In other words, the second functional component 70 can be an antenna structure with a transceiver module to support signal transmission between the electronic device 100 and other devices; the second functional component 70 can also be a ventilation structure with ventilation settings to dissipate heat from the second body 20.

[0062] Here, the second functional component 70 may be provided with one or more first openings. When multiple first openings are provided, the second functional component 70 may be mesh-like, and the first openings may form a ventilation structure. Alternatively, a second opening may be provided, and a rotatable fan blade may be provided inside the second opening, so that the second opening and the fan blade form a ventilation structure. Alternatively, the second functional component 70 may form part of the outer shell 201 of the second body 20, and the thickness of the second functional component 70 may be less than the thickness of the remaining area of ​​the outer shell 201, so that the second functional component 70 forms a ventilation structure.

[0063] In some embodiments, see Figures 4 to 7 The elastic bending segment 303 can be teardrop-shaped; the second body 20 can also include a target member 202, at least part of which can be located inside the elastic bending segment 303, and the target member 202 can be pressed by the inner surface of the elastic bending segment 303 when the first body 10 and the second body 20 are in a fitted state.

[0064] The second body 20 may have a protrusion 203. The portion of the elastically bent segment 303 connected to the first end 301 may abut against the protrusion 203, so that the elastically bent segment 303 is teardrop-shaped. When the elastically bent segment 303 abuts against the protrusion 203, the portion of the elastically bent segment 303 near the first end 301 and corresponding to the protrusion 203 may protrude in the direction of the elastically bent segment 303 connecting to the second end 302, so that the elastically bent segment 303 can be shaped like a teardrop. Figures 4 to 7 The teardrop shape is used. Here, the protrusion 203 can be a smooth and arc-shaped protrusion to reduce the probability of scratches being left on the connecting line 30 due to friction between the connecting line 30 and the protrusion 203 during deformation.

[0065] The target component 202 can be rod-shaped, with one end connected to the inner wall of the second body 20 and the other end extending into the interior of the elastic bending section 303, so as to be located within the water droplet of the elastic bending section 303; when the first body 10 and the second body 20 are in a fitted state (e.g., the angle between the first body 10 and the second body 20 is zero or close to zero and can be regarded as zero), the inner surface of the elastic bending section 303 presses against the target component 202, so that the position of the elastic bending section 303 corresponding to the target component 202 can be tightened to have a position similar to... Figure 6 The tension indicated by the arrow shown can allow the connecting line 30 to have more elastic potential energy when the first body 10 and the second body 20 are in a fitted state, thereby causing the first body 10 and the second body 20 to rotate relative to each other, increasing the angle between them (e.g., from...). Figure 4 Towards Figure 5 During the switching process, more elastic potential energy is released in the connecting line 30, enabling the connecting line 30 to quickly respond to the rotation of the first body 10 and the second body 20.

[0066] In this embodiment, the second body 20 may be provided with a protrusion 203; the portion of the elastic bending segment 303 connected to the first end 301 may abut against the protrusion 203, so that the elastic bending segment 303 is teardrop-shaped. Then, during the process of the first body 10 and the second body 20 rotating relative to each other to reduce the angle between them, the external tension of the teardrop-shaped elastic bending segment 303 (such as...) Figure 6 The force (in the direction of the arrow in the image) can be gradually increased to accumulate more elastic potential energy. As the first body 10 and the second body 20 rotate relative to each other to increase the angle between them, more elastic potential energy is released, enabling the connecting line 30 to respond quickly to the rotation of the first body 10 and the second body 20.

[0067] In some embodiments, see Figure 8 The connecting line 30 may include a signal layer 304, a ground layer 305, and a protective layer 306. The two ends of the signal layer 304 may be connected to the first body 10 and the second body 20 respectively. The two ends of the ground layer 305 may be connected to the first body 10 and the second body 20 respectively, and may cover one side of the signal layer 304. The protective layer 306 may be bonded to the surface of the ground layer 305 facing away from the signal layer 304, and the protective layer 306 may be disconnected at the position corresponding to the elastic bending section 303 to expose the ground layer 305.

[0068] See one example. Figure 8The connecting wire 30 may include a first repeated friction protective layer 307, an electromagnetic shielding layer 308, a surface protective layer 309, a first adhesive layer 310, a signal layer 304, a structural spacer layer 311, a grounding layer 305, a second adhesive layer 312, and a protective layer 306 stacked in sequence. The protective layer 306 can be disconnected at the position corresponding to the elastic bending section 303 to expose the grounding layer 305. At the same time, the second adhesive layer 312 can be set as a second repeated friction protective layer 313 at the position corresponding to the elastic bending section 303 to protect the exposed part of the grounding layer 305. Here, the first repeated friction protective layer 307 can abut against the first surface 501 and the second surface 401 respectively, so as to reduce the damage caused by mechanical wear, scratching and repeated bending during the sliding of the connecting line 30 on the first surface 501 and the second surface 401; the electromagnetic shielding layer 308 is used to shield the influence of external electromagnetic interference (EMI) on the signal transmission process of the signal layer 304, and at the same time, it can reduce the probability of internal signal radiation causing interference; the surface protective layer 309 can be bonded to one side of the signal layer 304 through the first adhesive layer 310 to protect the signal layer 304; the signal layer 304 is used to transmit electrical signals (such as data signals, power signals, etc.); the structural spacer layer 311 can be located between the signal layer 304 and the ground layer 305 to maintain a fixed distance between the signal layer 304 and the ground layer 305, reducing the occurrence of short circuits; the ground layer 305 can provide a reference ground potential for the circuit; the protective layer 306 can be located on one side of the ground layer 305 to protect the ground layer 305 and maintain its integrity.

[0069] In this embodiment, the two ends of the signal layer 304 can be connected to the first body 10 and the second body 20 respectively, so as to realize data transmission (such as image data) between the first body 10 and the second body 20; the ground layer 305 covers one side of the signal layer 304, and its two ends can be connected to the first body 10 and the second body 20 respectively, so as to form a complete signal loop, reduce signal reflection, crosstalk, noise, etc., and the ground layer 305 can be a complete layer of grid copper GND structure, and the size of different grids can be the same, so as to make the connection line 30 more flexural; the protective layer 306 can be bonded to the surface of the ground layer 305 facing away from the signal layer 304 to protect the ground layer 305 and keep it intact. At the same time, the protective layer 306 can be broken at the position corresponding to the elastic bending section 303 to expose the ground layer 305, so as to reduce the thickness of the elastic bending section 303 and improve the bending ability of the elastic bending section 303.

[0070] In some embodiments, see Figure 9The electronic device 100 may further include an elastic structure 80, which may be disposed on the elastic bending section 303, and the elastic structure 80 is used to increase the elastic potential energy of the elastic bending section 303.

[0071] The elastic structure 80 can be disposed on the outside of the elastic bending section 303, or as follows: Figure 9 The elastic structure 80 is set inside the elastic bending section 303 as shown; the elastic structure 80 can be a layer structure, a mesh structure, or a strip structure, etc.

[0072] See one example. Figure 9 The connecting line 30 may include a signal layer 304, a ground layer 305 and a protective layer 306 stacked together. The portion of the protective layer 306 corresponding to the elastic bending section 303 can be disconnected to expose the ground layer 305. The disconnected portion may be provided with an elastic structure 80, and the thickness of the elastic structure 80 may be less than the thickness of the protective layer 306. In this way, the thinner elastic bending section 303 is easier to bend. At the same time, the provision of the elastic structure 80 can increase the elastic potential energy of the elastic bending section 303, so that the elastic bending section 303 is easier to reset.

[0073] In this embodiment, the provision of the elastic structure 80 makes the elastic bending segment 303 easier to bend and increases the elastic potential energy of the elastic bending segment 303, making the elastic bending segment 303 easier to reset.

[0074] In some embodiments, the elastic structure 80 may include at least one of the following: an elastic rubber layer, a foam layer, or a polyester film layer.

[0075] In other words, the elastic structure 80 can be an elastic rubber layer, a foam layer, a polyester film layer, or a combination of stacked elastic rubber layers and foam layers, or a combination of stacked elastic rubber layers and polyester film layers, or a combination of stacked foam layers and polyester film layers.

[0076] In this embodiment, the elastic structure 80 can have a variety of different configurations to choose from.
