[0032] In this embodiment, a heat dissipation cavity 42 is provided between the outer wall of the housing 41 and the inner wall of the jacket 2, and the mounting shell 3 and the heat dissipation cavity 42 are in communication. When the overheating prevention device is used, since the heat dissipation cavity 42 is provided between the outer wall of the housing 41 and the inner wall of the jacket 2, the heat generated by the fuel cell body 4 during operation is first conducted to the heat dissipation cavity 42 by the heat dissipation fins 32, and then the heat is conducted away by the action of the plurality of heat dissipation fans 31, thereby reducing the temperature of the fuel cell body 4 during operation;
