The material of gas chamber outer shell body 1 is preferably aluminum alloy.
[0030] In the above structure, the cross section of the antireflection glass 2 is rectangular, and the surface of the antireflection glass 2 is attached with an AR film, which is used to reduce the reflection of light and enhance the light transmission of the antireflection glass 2. The AR film pasted on the surface of the antireflection glass 2 can reduce the reflection of light, and the light transmittance can reach 95%.

[0031] In the above structure, the antireflection glass 2 is inclined, and the included angle between the antireflection glass 2 and the inner bottom surface of the gas chamber body is 82.5°.
[0032] In summary, the sealed gas chamber formed by the two pieces of anti-reflection glass 2 and the gas chamber shell 1 is sealed by the sealing glass 3 after being filled with the gas of the required concentration. During the test, the methane gas sensor 5 is not in direct contact with the methane, but transmits light through the anti-reflection glass 2 of the gas chamber. In addition, considering the reflection of light, the anti-reflection glass 2 and the bottom surface of the gas chamber shell 1 are arranged in an inclined state, and an AR film is attached to the surface of the anti-reflection glass 2 to enhance the light transmission.
[0033] Referring to Figure 1 , 2 As shown in the figure, the gas chamber shell 1 is a rectangular box, the four side walls of the gas chamber shell 1 are respectively a first side wall 13, a second side wall 14, a third side wall 15 and a fourth side wall 16, the first side wall 13 and the second side wall 14 are opposite surfaces, the third side wall 15 and the fourth side wall 16 are opposite surfaces, the first side wall 13 and the second side wall 14 are arranged as rectangular openings, the anti-reflection glass 2 is installed at the rectangular openings of the first side wall 13 and the second side wall 14, the gas inlet hole 11 is arranged on the third side wall 15, and the gas outlet hole 12 is arranged on the fourth side wall 16.

The first side wall 13 and the second side wall 14 are symmetrically arranged along the center line of the gas chamber shell 1.
[0034] In the above structure, the gas inlet hole 11 is a circular hole, the third side wall 15 where the gas inlet hole 11 is located is provided with a first rectangular mounting groove 151, and the sealing glass 3 is mounted in the first rectangular mounting groove 151.

Preferably, the gas outlet hole 12 and the gas inlet hole 11 are on the same straight line, and the diameters of the gas outlet hole 12 and the gas inlet hole 11 are both 5mm. The sealing glass 3 is bonded to the bottom surface of the first rectangular mounting groove 151 and the second rectangular mounting groove 161 by means of dispensing, and the sealing glass 3 covers the gas outlet hole 12 and the gas inlet hole 11.
[0035] In the above structure, the bottom surface of the gas chamber shell 1 is provided with an auxiliary gas inlet hole 17, the auxiliary gas inlet hole 17 is provided with a third rectangular mounting groove 171 at the position of the outer wall of the gas chamber shell 1, and the third rectangular mounting groove 171 is provided with the sealing glass 3.
[0036] In the above structure, the outer wall of the bottom of the gas chamber shell 1 is provided with a plurality of screw holes 18, and the screw holes 18 are locked to the machine table by screws.
[0037] The working principle of the gas chamber body for calibrating and testing the household methane gas sensor is as follows:
[0038] 1. Apply silicone to the outer perimeter of the outer casing 1 of the aluminum alloy outer shell. Place the anti-reflective glass 2 into the grooves on the two opposite sides of the outer casing 1. Note that the anti-reflective glass 2 should be tilted at a certain angle.
[0039] 2. The outlet 12 is connected to the vacuum pumping device, and the inlet 11 is connected to the methane standard gas cylinder. While the outlet 12 is being evacuated, the inlet 11 is simultaneously filled with methane until the concentration inside the gas chamber reaches the required theoretical value. The gas chamber will remain stable at one standard atmosphere.
[0040] 3. Apply silicone around the air inlet 11 and air outlet 12, place the sealing glass 3 into the groove of the air inlet 11 and air outlet 12, press firmly until the glue dries.
[0041] 4. For example Figure 8 As shown, the methane sensor 5 is mounted on the sensor mounting bracket 4, so that the sensor mounting bracket 4 is above the gas chamber. The light emitted by the methane sensor 5 passes through the gas chamber, the reflector, the gas chamber, and the sensor receiving end, which can simulate the sensor's condition under the corresponding methane concentration environment.
[0042] The above scheme, which forms a sealed air chamber consisting of the outer shell 1 and the anti-reflective glass 2, only requires sealing the holes of the air inlet 11 and the air outlet 12 with glass after the gas is filled in, making the assembly of the entire air chamber convenient and quick.
[0043] The sealing glass 3 is applied to the holes of the air inlet 11 and air outlet 12 by applying adhesive, which ensures the overall sealing of the air chamber and also guarantees its lifespan.
[0044] When calibrating a methane gas sensor, the original method of placing it in the gas chamber for actual contact with methane gas, which required a certain amount of time for both loading and unloading, can be changed to indirect contact with methane gas. The sensor only needs to be placed above the gas chamber, and the light emitted by the sensor travels back and forth through the glass in the gas chamber, thus simulating the sensor's condition in a methane environment.
[0045] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
