The method or positional relationship shown is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the indicated device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as affecting the present utility model. New type of restriction.

As shown in FIG. 1 , in one embodiment, the present application provides an energy gateway with a multi-meter centralized reading function, as shown in FIG. 1 , including a management core 11 , an authentication device 12 , an uplink communication device 13 and an information collection device device 14 .

The management core 11 establishes an information transmission channel with the consumption meter through the information collection device 14, and then obtains the consumption meter data of the consumption meter. The consumption meter may include an electricity meter, a water meter and a gas meter. Long Range Radio (LoRa), long range radio has the advantages of low power consumption, strong penetration and high communication reliability, and can collect data efficiently and stably.

The management core 11 is also connected to multiple energy suppliers through the uplink communication module, and the energy suppliers can obtain the meter data in the management core 11 through the uplink communication channel. The uplink communication module includes at least two communication channels, and each communication channel realizes The physical layer is independent, and the damage of any one communication channel will not affect the normal use of other communication channels. In one embodiment, two communication channels may be set, and the two communication channels adopt different communication modes, for example, one communication channel adopts an Ethernet communication mode, and the other adopts an optical fiber communication mode. With this setting, when the communication mode of one communication channel fails, it can be switched to another communication channel, so that the communication remains stable.

The management core 11 is electrically connected with an authentication device 12, and the authentication device 12 is used to authenticate the energy supplier accessing the management core 11. The authentication device 12 processes different usage meter data and sets a data identifier for it. , and send the processed meter data to the management core, and different energy suppliers will obtain data access rights in advance; the management core sends the meter data with the data identifier to each energy supplier, and only the energy supply The meter data that matches the data identifier can only be obtained when the access authority of the supplier matches the data identifier. Therefore, each energy supplier can directly obtain the relevant meter data through the energy gateway, and it is not easy for the data to be leaked to other companies. In other optional embodiments, the authentication device 12 can support authentication operations of multiple energy suppliers at the same time, and supports at least three energy suppliers to set and access the data of the authentication device 12 through different authentication rights.

As shown in FIG. 2 , in other embodiments, the energy gateway further includes a communication chip 15 . The communication chip 15 may be a 2G/3G/4G/5G communication chip.
