9. A system with DC-side unloading function, characterized in that, It includes a control module, a generator, and a wind power converter with DC-side unloading function as described in any one of claims 1-8.

10. A method for unloading the system according to claim 9, characterized in that, include: The control module determines whether the system is under maintenance, whether the system has experienced a complete failure, and whether the wind power converter itself has a fault. If the system is under maintenance, or if the system experiences a complete failure, or if the wind power converter itself has a fault, the chopper circuit will be activated to unload the load. If the system is not under maintenance and there is no overall system failure, and the wind power converter itself is not faulty, then the system is determined to be in a non-fault shutdown state. When the system is in a non-fault shutdown state, it is determined whether the circuit breaker is in the open state. If the circuit breaker is in the open state, the load is unloaded through the second-stage discharge circuit; if the circuit breaker is in the closed state, it is determined whether the DC side voltage obtained by the voltmeter is greater than or equal to 80% of the DC side reference voltage. If the obtained DC-side voltage is greater than or equal to 80% of the DC-side reference voltage, then determine whether a start-up command and a grid-side start-up command have been received; if the obtained DC-side voltage is less than 80% of the DC-side reference voltage, then perform pre-charging. If a start command and a grid-side start command are received, the grid-side AC circuit and the grid-side fully controlled device circuit will be started first, and then the machine-side AC circuit and the machine-side fully controlled device circuit will be started. Conversely, if no power-on command and network-side startup command are received, a new determination will be made.
