It belongs to the technical field of metallurgical equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the prior art, in order to ensure the sealing of the furnace opening during the operation of the production line, three sealing structures, i.e. a press plate type sealing, a press roller type sealing or a rotary roller type sealing, are generally provided at the furnace opening of the heat treatment production line equipment (particularly the equipment of the continuous strip bright annealing production line) to avoid the entry of air into the interior of the furnace. In the press plate type sealing or the press roller type sealing structure, a layer of soft felt is required to be provided on the contact surface of the workpiece. Since sliding friction occurs between the workpiece and the soft felt, the following problems exist: (1) scratches are easily caused on the workpiece; (2) the soft felt is easily deformed during the rotation of the rotary roller, causing a gap between the end surface of the sealing roller and the two side arches and air leakage; and (3) the end surface of the sealing roller is easily worn.

The elastic gasket 4 extrudes the dynamic wear-resistant sheet 3 and the static wear-resistant sheet 2 through its elastic force, so that the dynamic wear-resistant sheet 3 and the static wear-resistant sheet 2 and the static wear-resistant sheet 2 and the furnace mouth frame 1 are permanently attached. The static wear-resistant sheet 2 and the dynamic wear-resistant sheet 3 are made of self-lubricating wear-resistant materials, and the friction coefficient is very small, and the two are in relative rotation, while the static wear-resistant sheet 2 and the furnace mouth frame 1 are in a static state, so that the end surface of the sealing roller is wear-free.
