The positioning column 17 is inserted into the inside of the docking groove 16, and the lower end of the guide plate 1503 is inserted into the inside of the fixed seat 1504. The setting of the docking groove 16 and the positioning column 17 can facilitate the docking and positioning between the base 14 and the fixed seat 1504.

[0038] Working principle: When the height of the vacuum furnace needs to be adjusted to facilitate pipe docking, the support frame 1502 is pushed by starting the hydraulic cylinder 1501 to lift the furnace body 13, and the guide plate 1503 thereof will move upward. When it moves to a certain position, the cylinder 1505 is started to insert the positioning block 1506 into the positioning hole 1507 on the guide plate 1503, so as to support and fix the support frame 1502.
