[0002] Secure energy routers are a new type of energy management device that enhances security protection mechanisms on the basis of traditional energy routers. Their core functions include efficient energy dispatch, multi-form power conversion, and proactive protection of system security. They are mainly used in power systems, smart grids, and distributed energy networks. Secure energy routers can achieve interconnection between local area networks and wide area networks. Their functions inherit and expand the core characteristics of traditional routers and energy routers, while ensuring the reliability of the interconnection process by strengthening security mechanisms.

[0003] As a key device in the energy internet, the secure energy router not only supports the internal scheduling of local energy networks such as building microgrids, but also interconnects with large power grids and distributed energy sites (such as wind farms and photovoltaic power stations) through wide area interfaces, realizing cross-regional coordination of energy production and consumption. In actual operation, existing secure energy routers often require the use of interface converters to expand their interfaces to facilitate connection with other devices. The conversion method is not only more troublesome to operate, but also the multi-segment connection can easily lead to a decrease in the stability of the line connection. Especially when used outdoors, the conversion method can also pose certain safety hazards due to the influence of the weather. Summary of the Invention

Any embodiment or design described as "exemplary" in the present invention should not be construed as being more preferred or advantageous than other embodiments or designs. Specifically, the use of the word "exemplary" is intended to present the concept in a concrete manner. Furthermore, in embodiments of the present invention, the meaning expressed by "and / or" can be both, or either one.

[0026] To make the technical problems, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, a detailed description will be given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0027] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of a secure energy router based on the energy internet, provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, it includes an energy router body 3 and a multi-port connector 1. The tail end of the multi-port connector 1 is electrically connected to the energy router body 3. A power interface 4 is provided on the side of the energy router body 3. The energy router body 3 is electrically connected to the power cord through the power interface 4.

[0028] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a split structure of a multi-port connector and its connected components according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2As shown, the multi-port connector 1 is provided with multiple connection ports, including an input port 6 and at least one output port 5. The number of output ports 5 can be set as needed. For example, if two output ports 5 are provided on each side of the multi-port connector 1, then ten output ports 5 can be provided simultaneously.

[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the multi-port connector 1 has at least one output port 5 on its side along its length, and an input port 6 on its head. The output port 5 and the input port 6 are electrically connected to corresponding interfaces on the built-in circuit board of the multi-port connector 1 via ribbon cables.

[0030] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of a multi-port connector and its connected components according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 As shown, the head of the multi-port connector 1 is provided with a rotating opening and closing component 7, which blocks multiple connection ports when closed.

[0031] Specifically, the output port 5 corresponds to the geometric center position of the rotating opening and closing component 7.

[0032] The tail of the multi-port connector 1 is surrounded by a folding protective component 8, which, when folded, blocks all the output ports 5 of the multi-port connector 1.

[0033] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the back structure of a multi-port connector and its connected components according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 As shown, the multi-port connector 1 has a connection terminal 2 at its tail, and the multi-port connector 1 is electrically connected to the energy router body 3 through the connection terminal 2.

[0034] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of a rotating opening and closing assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5 As shown, the rotary opening and closing assembly 7 surrounds the outer end of the head of the multi-port connector 1; the rotary opening and closing assembly 7 includes a hollow ring-shaped movable inner ring 701 and a fixed outer ring 704, a handle 702 is fixedly installed on the front side of the movable inner ring 701, and limit grooves 703 are arrayed on the ring body of the movable inner ring 701.

[0035] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the geometric center of the hollow ring structure in the active inner ring 701 corresponds to the input port 6 of the head of the multi-port connector 1.

[0036] The fixed outer ring 704 has a concave cross-section, and the movable inner ring 701 is rotatably installed inside the concave structure of the fixed outer ring 704; the inner wall of the concave structure of the fixed outer ring 704 is fixed with a series of limit posts 705, and the limit posts 705 are slidably engaged with the corresponding limit grooves 703 on the movable inner ring 701.

[0037] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, a front pin 706 is fixed to the front end of the inner wall of the movable inner ring 701, and a connecting rod 707 is rotatably connected to the front pin 706; the rotary opening and closing assembly 7 also includes a valve disc 708, and the end of the connecting rod 707 away from the front pin 706 is rotatably connected to the valve disc 708, and the valve disc 708 is rotatably engaged with the outer edge of the head of the multi-port connector 1 through a pin.

[0038] Specifically, the multi-port connector 1 is inserted into the pre-reserved connection base on the energy router body 3 to achieve electrical connection. In use, the movable inner ring 701 is rotated by the handle 702. The movable inner ring 701 slides on the limiting post 705 on the inner wall of the recess of the fixed outer ring 704 through the limiting groove 703 on it. The front pin 706 at the front end of the inner wall of the movable inner ring 701 pulls the valve disc 708 through the connecting rod 707, so that the valve disc 708 rotates and unfolds at the outer edge of the head of the multi-port connector 1, exposing the input port 6 of the head of the multi-port connector 1. Then, the broadband interface is connected to the input port 6 of the multi-port connector 1, and the network signal is received by introducing the broadband signal into the energy router body 3.

[0039] This invention protects the input port 6 of the multi-port connector 1 by concealing it within a valve disc 708 and controlling the opening of the valve disc 708 via a rotating opening and closing assembly 7. This prevents external dust and impurities from entering the input port 6 and affecting the stability of the data connection. By integrating the input port 6 and the output port 5 into the head and middle of the multi-port connector 1 respectively, and by arranging multiple output ports 5 along the extension direction of the multi-port connector 1, the number of interfaces is expanded. This not only meets the multi-interface requirements of the energy router body 3, but also allows the multi-port connector 1 to connect multiple devices simultaneously by expanding the number of interfaces, improving applicability and facilitating wire insertion.

[0040] Figure 6 This is a structural schematic diagram of a folding protective assembly provided according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 6 As shown, the folding protective assembly 8 includes an end plate 801 and a connecting rib 802. The end plate 801 is fixedly installed on the outer edge of the tail of the multi-port connector 1, and the end plate 801 is fixed to the fixed outer ring 704 through the connecting rib 802.

[0041] Cover plates 803 are rotatably mounted on both sides of end plate 801. Cover plates 803 are crescent-shaped and cover the output port 5 of multi-port connector 1.

[0042] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the end plates 803 on both sides of the end plate 801 are provided with folding grooves 804, and a signal antenna 805 is rotatably installed inside the folding grooves 804 through a damping shaft.

[0043] The folding protective assembly 8 also includes a rocker arm 806 and a rear pin 807. The rocker arm 806 is rotatably connected to the central pin of the cover plate 803. The end of the rocker arm 806 away from the cover plate 803 is rotatably connected to the rear pin 807. The rear pin 807 is symmetrically fixed to the rear end of the inner wall of the movable inner ring 701.

[0044] Specifically, while the inner ring 701 rotates to open the valve 708, the rear pin 807 at the rear end of the inner wall of the inner ring 701 pulls the middle pin of the cover plate 803 through the rocker arm 806, so that the cover plate 803 rotates and unfolds on both sides of the end plate 801. The orientation of the signal antenna 805 in the folding groove 804 at the end of the cover plate 803 is adjusted to improve the coverage of the wireless network and enhance the signal stability.

[0045] In this embodiment of the invention, the cover plate 803 adopts a crescent-shaped structure, which can cover the output ports 5 arranged in the middle of the multi-port connector 1 for protection when not in use, and unfold simultaneously to expose the output ports 5 arranged in the middle of the multi-port connector 1 when in use, so that users can connect the multiple output ports 5 on the multi-port connector 1 to multiple devices in sequence through network cables to complete signal transmission. In addition, the signal antenna 805 itself is also housed in the cover plate 803 to avoid the risk of the signal antenna 805 being easily damaged during movement and transportation.

[0046] Furthermore, through the linkage design of the rotating opening and closing component 7 and the folding protective component 8, the present invention can achieve the linkage of unfolding the valve disc 708 and exposing the head input port 6 of the multi-port connector 1, and unfolding the cover plate 803 and exposing the middle output port 5 of the multi-port connector 1 by simply rotating the movable inner ring 701 with the handle 702. The structure is compact, small in size, convenient to operate and highly applicable.

[0047] This invention also provides a secure networking method for secure energy routers based on the energy internet. The secure energy routers are connected to the energy internet, and the router feedback control module of each secure energy router connected to the energy internet is connected to the main control unit through a communication device. The main control unit is connected to an execution unit, and the execution unit is connected to the router feedback control module through the communication device. The communication channel of the communication device is coupled to the power line of the communication device via a wired or wireless connection.

[0048] Preferably, the safe energy router is also equipped with temperature and humidity sensors. The temperature and humidity sensors are used to collect temperature and humidity information and transmit it to the main control unit through a communication device. The main control unit combines the voltage, power, temperature and humidity information of the safe energy router to determine the operating status of the safe energy router, and determines the instruction to be executed based on the operating status. The instruction to be executed is then transmitted to the router feedback control module for execution through the execution unit and the communication device.

[0049] Preferably, the secure energy router has a threshold input unit for obtaining a preset threshold range; wherein, the preset threshold range includes a preset voltage threshold range and a preset power threshold range;

[0050] The router feedback control module determines whether the voltage and power are within the preset threshold range. If not, the router feedback control module shuts down the safe energy router.

[0051] The specific safe operation is as follows:

[0052] First, the safe energy routers are connected to the energy internet and each safe energy router is numbered. Based on the normal operation simulation of the energy internet and the location of the energy routers, the safe thresholds of voltage and power for each safe energy router are estimated and input into the corresponding energy router feedback control module. Then, all router feedback control modules are connected to the main control unit and execution unit through a wireless communication device to complete the safe connection.

[0053] During operation, if the voltage or power of a certain energy router exceeds the set safety threshold, the router feedback control module will shut down the energy router and transmit the information to the main control unit. The main control unit will then issue a maintenance instruction to assign a safety officer, who will then carry out maintenance.

[0054] If the voltage or power is within the safe range, the voltage and power information of all energy routers will be transmitted to the main control unit through the router feedback control module. The main control unit will compare the voltage and power information of all safe energy routers horizontally. If, during the horizontal comparison, the voltage or power of a certain safe energy router does not exceed the threshold, but exceeds the median of the safety threshold by a large margin compared to other safe energy routers, it is considered a possible fault, and a safety officer will be assigned to repair it and shut down this energy router.

[0055] As described above, the embodiments of the present invention provide a secure energy router based on the energy internet and its secure networking method, which has the following technical effects compared with the prior art:

[0056] (1) The present invention designs a multi-port connector and is equipped with a rotating opening and closing component and a folding protective component, which can not only ensure that the multi-port connector can be easily connected to the interface, but also protect the multi-port connector from the influence of weather outdoors.

[0057] (2) The secure networking method of the present invention achieves the most basic security protection through the threshold of the energy router itself, and can also determine the operating status of the energy router by combining the main control unit with temperature and humidity information to achieve further security protection.

[0058] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope of the claims.
