[0027] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art. It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is used to help understand the present invention, but does not constitute a limitation of the present invention. In addition, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0028] Embodiment 1
[0029] The docking station is mainly used to connect to terminal devices and external electronic devices (such as keyboards, monitors, scanners, etc.) through the connection ports provided on it. Figure 1As shown, the expansion base 1 in this embodiment includes a housing 2, an identity recognition module 3, a data exchange module 4 and a control module 5. Among them, the housing 2 is provided with a plurality of openings, and the openings are used for a plurality of connection ports 6 to be exposed one by one from the openings, and each connection port 6 is used for connection with a connector, and the connector is specifically a connector on an external electronic device. The identity recognition module 3 is used to obtain the identity recognition information of the user. The data exchange module 4 is arranged in the housing 2, and the data exchange module 4 and the identity recognition module 3 are electrically connected to receive the identity recognition information. The control module 5 is used to control the data exchange module 4 to transmit the identity recognition information outward and receive the corresponding confirmation information, and change the available status of the plurality of connection ports 6 according to the confirmation information. Changing the available status of the connection port 6 specifically refers to providing or interrupting the power supply. Further, changing the available status of the connection port 6 can also refer to switching from a state of maintaining power supply to power the identity recognition module so that identity authentication can be performed while not allowing the user to obtain data, to a state of allowing the user to obtain data.
[0030] Specifically, the external electronic device can be a computer, audio and video, storage and control device, including: a computer, a drive, a player, a camera, a speaker, a microphone, a sensor, a keyboard, a mouse, a dispatcher, a charger, etc.
[0031] In this embodiment, the identity recognition module 3 is arranged on the housing 2. The identity recognition module 3 includes any one of a fingerprint reading device, a near field communication (NFC) recognition device, a radio frequency identification (RFID) device and a face collection device. The identity recognition module 3 is used to collect one or more of user fingerprint information, user work number information and user face information. The housing 2 is provided with a touch screen, a card reading area or a camera. For example, the identity recognition module 3 may only include a fingerprint reading device, and after the user inputs the fingerprint through the touch screen, the identity recognition module 3 collects the user's fingerprint information (i.e., identity recognition information). Preferably, the identity recognition module 3 may include multiple devices to achieve double or multiple verifications, further improving the security of the expansion base 1. For example, the identity recognition module 3 includes a fingerprint reading device and an NFC recognition device, and the user needs to input the fingerprint at the same time and swipe the corresponding user ID card in the card reading area.
[0032] The data exchange module 4 has a first input terminal and a first output terminal, the first input terminal is electrically connected to the identity recognition module 3 to receive identity recognition information, and the first output terminal is used to send the identity recognition information to an external data comparison device. The control module 5 is arranged in the housing 2, and the control module 5 is electrically connected to multiple connection ports 6, the identity recognition module 3 and the data exchange module 4 respectively. The control module 5 may include a controller, and the controller may be an MCU chip, and the MCU chip has the function of changing the available status of multiple connection ports according to confirmation information. Specifically, the control module 5 has a second input terminal and multiple second output terminals, and the second input terminal is used to be electrically connected to an external data comparison device to receive confirmation information. It should be noted that how the control module 5 changes the available status of multiple connection ports according to confirmation information is a conventional means in the art and is not the main point of the invention of this application.
[0033] The connection port 6 specifically includes any one or more of a USB port, a DP port, an HDMI port, and a DC-IN port. The expansion base 1 is electrically connected to an external data comparison device 9 via a cable, WIFI, or Bluetooth. The external data comparison device 9 is used to receive the identity information sent by the data exchange module 4 and return confirmation information to the data exchange module 4.
[0034] Furthermore, the management portal can remotely control the expansion base 1, and an additional administrator identification module can be set for the management portal. The administrator identification module is similar to the above-mentioned identity identification module 3 and is used for biometric verification. After the verification is passed, the administrator can remotely control the expansion base 1, restrict or allow the current user to use the expansion base, perform remote firmware updates, re-power the expansion base 1, record the process of using the expansion base 1 or ending the use of the expansion base 1 through screen menu adjustment, provide a reservation function for the expansion base 1, and perform equipment health checks regularly. Furthermore, the management portal can summarize and batch manage multiple expansion bases that have been registered or are in use, and for some corporate application scenarios, enable the expansion base to have functions that adapt to corporate operations.
[0035] This embodiment also includes a safety control system 10, such as Figure 2 The security control system 10 includes the above-mentioned expansion base 1, an external data comparison device 9 electrically connected to the expansion base 1, and one or more external electronic devices 8 electrically connected to the expansion base 1. The external electronic device 8 has a connector for connecting to the connecting part 6, and the external data comparison device 9 stores a user authority database, which pre-stores user fingerprint information, user work number information, user face information, etc.
[0036] The following is a detailed introduction to the data flow transmission process in the expansion base 1 in this embodiment:
[0037] Taking the example that the identity recognition module 3 includes both a fingerprint reader and an NFC device, after the user inputs a fingerprint on the touch screen and swipes the work badge in the card reading area, the identity recognition module 3 obtains the identity recognition information (user fingerprint information and user work number information) respectively, and transmits the identity recognition information to the external data comparison device 9 through the data exchange module 4. The external data comparison device 9 compares the received identity recognition information with the information pre-stored in the user authority database. If the user fingerprint information is consistent with the information stored in the user authority database, and the user work number information is also consistent with the information stored in the user authority database, the external data comparison device 9 returns a confirmation message to the data exchange module 4 (the confirmation message is that the comparison is passed), and at this time the control module 5 controls the corresponding connection port 6 to be in an available state.
[0038] Embodiment 2
[0039] The second embodiment is basically the same as the first embodiment, except that: Figure 3 As shown, the expansion base 1 in this embodiment also includes a safety seat 7 independent of the housing 2, and the identity recognition module is arranged on the safety seat 7. The safety seat 7 and the housing 2 are detachably connected, so the user can freely choose the type of the identity recognition module 3. For example, the user can connect the safety seat 7 with a touch screen to the housing 2, or the safety seat 7 with a card reading area to the housing 2, thereby further improving the diversity of identity recognition. Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 A safety control system 10 includes the expansion base 1 in this embodiment, and the details are not repeated here.
[0040] In summary, the expansion base and the safety control system in this embodiment have at least the following advantages:
[0041] 1. The identity recognition module is set to collect the identity recognition information of the user, and the identity recognition information is transmitted outward through the data exchange module. After the confirmation information is returned to the control module after confirmation and comparison, the control module controls the available status of multiple connection ports. If the confirmation and comparison fail, the connection port is controlled to be disconnected and the connection fails; if the comparison passes, the connection port is controlled to be connected, thereby restricting the use authority of the expansion base. Users who do not have the use authority of the expansion base cannot connect the expansion base to the external electronic device, thereby improving the use safety of the expansion base;
[0042] 2. The identity recognition module may have one verification device or may be provided with multiple verification methods to further enhance the security of the expansion base;
[0043] 3. The identity recognition module can be set on the shell or on a safety seat independent of the shell, which further enhances the diversity of identity recognition and meets the various needs of users.
