They use salt spray corrosion to test the reliability of the tested samples. Salt spray refers to a diffuse system composed of tiny salt droplets in the atmosphere. It is one of the three types of artificial environmental protection. Many companies need to simulate the destructive effects of the ocean climate on their products, so salt spray test chambers have become popular. Salt spray test chambers are divided into neutral salt spray and acidic salt spray. The difference between them lies in the standards they meet and the test methods.

[0035] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the purpose of this setting is that the setting of the control component 7 can monitor the liquid level of the liquid storage tank 5 in real time, and intervene in time when the liquid level is too low, and then quickly add the internal solution. At the same time, with the cooperation of the concentration sensor 65, the concentration of the solution inside the liquid storage tank 5 can be monitored in real time.

[0036] Example 2:
[0037] See also Figure 1-5 , this embodiment provides a technical solution based on the first embodiment: the mixing assembly 6 includes a servo motor 61, the servo motor 61 is fixedly connected to the top wall of the liquid storage tank 5, a transmission rod 62 is rotatably installed in the middle of the inner wall of the liquid storage tank 5 through a bearing seat, the power shaft of the servo motor 61 passes through the liquid storage tank 5 and is fixedly connected to the top of the transmission rod 62 through a bearing, a plurality of stirring rods 63 are evenly fixedly installed on the outer wall of the transmission rod 62, a plurality of stirring blades 64 are evenly fixedly installed on the outer wall of the stirring rod 63, a concentration sensor 65 is installed on the inner bottom wall of the liquid storage tank 5, a placement rack 11 is fixedly installed in the middle of the inner wall of the test box 3, a transparent observation cover 10 is hingedly installed on the top wall of the test box 3, a cover plate 9 is hingedly installed on the top wall of the control box 4, a controller 8 is installed on the front wall of the control box 4, and support legs 2 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the bottom wall of the workbench 1;

The transparent observation cover 10 can observe the test conditions inside the test box 3.
[0039] Meanwhile, the contents not described in detail in this specification belong to the prior art known to those skilled in the art.
[0040] During operation, first connect the servo motor 61, concentration sensor 65, liquid pump 71, water control solenoid valve 1 73, salt solution control solenoid valve 2 74, low liquid level meter 78, and high liquid level meter 79 through the external power supply and controller 8. When starting work, first open the transparent observation cover 10 and place the product to be tested on the top of the rack 11, then close the transparent observation cover 10. The liquid storage tank 5 is mainly used to store salt solution inside the pressure tank. The salt solution inside is transported to the atomizing nozzle 77 through the connecting pipe 76 through the liquid storage tank 5 and the salt mist is sprayed until it fills the test box 3 and contacts the product to be tested placed on the top of the rack 11. When the liquid level inside the liquid storage tank 5 drops below the low liquid level meter 78, the low liquid level meter 78 senses the drop in liquid level and controls the liquid pump 71 to start working through the controller 8, and controls the water control solenoid valve 1 73 and the salt solution control solenoid valve 2 74 to open, and controls the three-way pipe 72 to open. Salt solution and water are drawn from the outside, injected into the interior of the mixing assembly 6 after passing through the liquid outlet pipe 75, and then the servo motor 61 is started to drive the transmission rod 62 to rotate. When the transmission rod 62 rotates, it drives the stirring rod 63 and the stirring blade 64 to mix and stir the solution inside the liquid storage tank 5 evenly, and senses the change of the solution concentration through the liquid storage tank 5. If the concentration is low, the controller 8 controls the water control solenoid valve 1 73 to close and draw the salt solution into the liquid storage tank 5 through the right pipe of the tee pipe 72. If the concentration is high, the controller 8 controls the salt solution control solenoid valve 2 74 to close and then draw water into the liquid storage tank 5 through the left pipe of the tee pipe 72. During this period, the mixing assembly 6 is always in the working state in the liquid storage tank 5, and the liquid storage tank 5 stops delivering the solution to the connecting pipe 76. When the solution inside the liquid storage tank 5 reaches the high liquid level sensor 79, the controller 8 controls the liquid pump 71 to stop working.
