[0031] The ventilation assembly comprises: a plurality of ventilation pipes 2, a connecting pipe 3 communicating the plurality of ventilation pipes 2; the plurality of ventilation pipes 2 are arranged in a nested manner, and the ventilation pipes 2 are provided with a plurality of gas outlets;
[0032] The disturbance assembly comprises a plurality of exhaust pipes 4, and a plurality of spiral strips 5 arranged inside the exhaust pipes 4; the plurality of spiral strips 5 are fixedly attached to the inner wall of the exhaust pipes 4, and the spiral direction of the spiral strips 5 inside the exhaust pipes 4 is consistent;
[0033] The salt bath solution is carried in the salt bath tank 1, and nitrogen gas is introduced into the ventilation assembly.
[0034] The nitrogen source is introduced into the salt bath tank 1 through the ventilation assembly, specifically, the nitrogen is uniformly introduced into the ventilation pipe 2 of the ring-in-ring structure through the connecting pipe 3, and then is introduced into the exhaust pipe 4 through the gas outlet position of the ventilation pipe 2, and then is spirally disturbed by the salt bath solution under the action of the plurality of spiral strips 5 in the exhaust pipe 4, so that the gas is discharged to drive the salt bath solution to be spirally disturbed, the disturbance of the gas flow is combined with the spiral flow state of the gas flow, and more uniform gas distribution in the salt bath solution is realized, so that the problems of gas aggregation or uneven distribution in the traditional device can be avoided, and the uniform stirring of the salt bath solution is facilitated.
[0035] In the utility model, the gas guide pipe 6 is fixed outside the salt bath tank 1, the gas guide pipe 6 is communicated with the connecting pipe 3, and the gas guide pipe 6 is communicated with the external gas pump.
[0036] The nitrogen source is introduced into the ventilation assembly through the gas guide pipe 6, so that the nitrogen can stably enter the ventilation assembly, the gas flow and pressure are controlled, and then the dispersion effect and stirring efficiency of the gas are controlled;

[0038] In the utility model, the spiral directions of the spiral strips 5 in the exhaust pipes 4 on the same ventilation pipe 2 are consistent, and the spiral directions of the spiral strips 5 in the exhaust pipes 4 on adjacent ventilation pipes 2 are opposite.
[0039] When the spiral directions of the spiral strips 5 in the plurality of exhaust pipes 4 are consistent, the vortex flow is generated when the gas passes, the flow speed in the local area is increased, the mixing effect of the solution is enhanced, and the problems that the temperature is uneven or the nitrogen permeation is uneven due to insufficient stirring of the salt bath solution in some areas are avoided;

[0046] In the utility model, the plurality of gas outlets are vertically upwardly arranged, and the gas outlets are arranged concentrically with the exhaust pipes 4.
[0047] The vertically upwardly arranged gas outlets enable the nitrogen to be discharged from the exhaust pipes 4 in a vertical direction, which helps the gas to quickly rise and disperse in the salt bath solution, avoids the dead angle of the gas quickly contacting the solution after being discharged, and improves the interaction efficiency of the gas and the salt bath solution.
[0048] In the utility model, the diameter of the connecting pipe 3 is smaller than the diameter of the air pipe 2.
[0049] In the utility model, the plurality of air pipes 2 arranged in a ring-in-ring mode, the number of the exhaust pipes 4 on the air pipe 2 at the outer ring position is less than the number of the exhaust pipes 4 on the air pipe 2 at the inner ring position.
[0050] In use, the external nitrogen is uniformly introduced into the air pipes 2 arranged in a ring-in-ring mode through the connecting pipe 3, enters the exhaust pipes 4 through the gas outlet positions of the air pipes 2, and is combined with the salt bath solution in a spiral shape through the action of the plurality of spiral strips 5 in the exhaust pipes 4, so that the disturbance of the gas flow and the spiral flow state of the gas flow are combined, the gas is discharged to drive the salt bath solution to be disturbed in a spiral shape, when the directions of the spiral strips 5 in the plurality of exhaust pipes 4 are consistent, the gas generates vortex flow when passing through, and when the directions of the spiral strips 5 of the adjacent exhaust pipes 4 are opposite, the flow direction of the mixed salt bath solution and nitrogen is alternately disturbed,
