[0025] A DC-DC voltage regulator module 4 is designed to be added to the hardware architecture of the hybrid system. The fuel cell module 1 and the lithium battery module 2 are connected in parallel, and the outputs of the two are output to the load output module via the DC-DC voltage regulator module 4. The original mode is the "series" mode of the fuel cell and the lithium battery, which is improved to the "parallel" mode of the fuel cell module 1 and the lithium battery module 2. The lithium battery module 2 is no longer the "load" at the output end of the fuel cell module 1, and the lithium battery module 2 can participate in the output of the hybrid system to the load 8; the control management module 3 is connected to the DC-DC voltage regulator module 4, and the DC-DC voltage regulator module 4 can communicate with the control management module 3, receive the control signal sent by the control management module 3 in real time, and adjust and manage the output of the fuel cell module 1 and the lithium battery module 2 to stably control the output characteristics of the fuel cell module 1, thereby avoiding the situation where the output voltage of the fuel cell module 1 is quickly pulled down and the fuel cell module 1 is disconnected, so that the hybrid system can operate stably.

[0026] The dual-power hybrid device is designed with multiple voltage acquisition unit modules and current acquisition unit modules to optimize the control strategy according to the voltage data and current data of each channel. Figure 1 As shown, the load output module includes a shunt 5, which is connected in series with the DC-DC voltage regulator module 4 to monitor the voltage and current at the output end of the DC-DC voltage regulator module 4. The control management module 3 is connected to the shunt 5 to control the output characteristics of the fuel cell module 1 according to the monitored voltage and current. The output characteristics of the fuel cell module 1 include current, voltage and power.

The lithium battery module 2 participates in the output of the hybrid system to the load 8, and bears part of the pressure of the fuel cell output to the load 8. Furthermore, the bidirectional charging and discharging module 7 includes a charging circuit and a discharging circuit.

The output end of the discharge circuit is connected to the input end of the DC-DC direct current voltage regulator module 4, so that the lithium battery module 2 provides power to the load 8. The charging circuit and the discharging circuit both include diodes, and the lithium battery module includes an air switch and an aviation connector ( Figure 1 When the fuel cell module 1 outputs to the load 8, the lithium battery module 2 can be slowly charged, thereby providing energy guarantee for the subsequent output of the lithium battery module 2 to the load 8.
