[0011] Preferably, the exhaust assembly includes a mounting plate fixedly connected to the upper outer side of the shell, an air pump is fixedly provided on the mounting plate, an air inlet of the air pump is fixedly connected to a connecting hose, and the other end of the connecting hose is fixedly connected to the exhaust pipe.
[0012] Preferably, the connecting shell is connected to a water pump via a fixed pipe and a water pipe, a liquid level sensor is provided inside the annular plate, and a sealing valve is provided inside the exhaust pipe.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present invention has the following advantages: (1) The base mechanism is provided with an outer shell, an inner shell, a cooling component and an exhaust component. The deionized water stored in the annular plate is used to seal the liquid so that the liquid level always submerges the joint between the inner shell and the base. The liquid forms the first physical barrier. Its fluidity can compensate for the microscopic unevenness of the contact surface, achieving dynamic sealing and effectively blocking the leakage of the protective gas in the furnace and the infiltration of external air. During the insulation stage, the system will close the drain short pipe valve and start the air pump to actively evacuate the gas and water vapor in the cavity between the outer shell and the inner shell to form a low vacuum environment. Vacuum is an excellent thermal insulation layer, which further reduces heat loss. However, its key role here is that it constitutes the second "negative pressure seal". In addition, the liquid level sensor integrated in the annular plate realizes the monitoring of the sealing liquid level, ensuring that the liquid level is always in a safe range, preventing the seal from failing due to too low a liquid level and also avoiding overflow due to too high a liquid level. (2) When the traditional bell-type annealing furnace is running at high temperature, the temperature of the outer wall of the furnace shell is extremely high, and a large amount of heat is lost to the workshop in the form of radiation and convection. This not only causes huge energy waste, but also leads to a poor production environment. Especially in summer, the high temperature in the workshop is unbearable, which seriously affects the health and work efficiency of workers. The present invention introduces deionized water into the cavity between the outer shell and the inner shell. The water pump pumps out the deionized water in the annular plate, and after cooling through the plate heat exchanger, it is pumped to the fixed ring on the top of the inner shell through the drainage elbow. The deionized water then flows evenly along the high-temperature outer wall of the inner shell through the drainage hole. In this process, the deionized water is forced to flow through convection and high-efficiency heat conduction. Actively and in large quantities absorbs the heat dissipated from the inner shell, greatly reducing the overall temperature of the outer shell. After the deionized water that has absorbed the heat flows back to the annular plate, it is not directly discarded, but is immediately sent to the plate heat exchanger for cooling, thus forming a closed, continuous active cooling cycle of heat extraction and transfer. This process effectively collects the waste heat that would otherwise be lost to the environment and discharges it through the heat exchanger, greatly reducing the heat loss from the furnace body to the environment, saving the energy consumption required for heating, reducing production costs, solving the problem of "thermal pollution" in the workshop, and preventing the workshop temperature from being too high due to heat diffusion, affecting the health of workers.

[0022] The inner and outer sides of the outer shell 21 and the outer side of the inner shell 23 are coated with an anti-corrosion coating.
[0023] The cooling component 25 includes a water pump 251 fixedly arranged above the shell 21, and the liquid outlet of the water pump 251 is connected to a drainage elbow 252, the other end of the drainage elbow 252 passes through the through hole 212, and the drainage elbow 252 is fixedly connected to the shell 21 through the through hole 212, and the liquid inlet of the shell 21 is connected to a connecting pipe 255, and the other end of the connecting pipe 255 is connected to a plate heat exchanger 253, and the plate heat exchanger 253 is fixedly arranged on the outside of the shell 21 through a mounting plate, and a water pumping pipe 254 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the plate heat exchanger 253.

[0025] The connecting shell 14 is connected to the water pipe through a fixed pipe 141 and a liquid replenishing device. A liquid level sensor is provided inside the annular plate 13, and a sealing valve is provided in the exhaust pipe 213. The liquid replenishing device is used to replenish deionized water into the annular plate 13 to reduce scale generation.
[0026] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the material is placed on the base 11, the inner cover is covered, and then the protective mechanism 2 is covered. The inner shell 23 contacts the sealing gasket on the base 11. At this time, liquid is injected into the connecting shell 14 through the liquid replenishing device. The valve in the connecting shell 14 is opened, and the liquid enters the annular plate 13 through the connecting hole. At this time, the water pump 251 extracts the liquid in the annular plate 13 through the connecting pipe 255 and the water pumping pipe 254, and then injects it into the upper part of the outer shell 21 from the drainage elbow 252. The drainage elbow 252 injects the liquid into the upper part of the inner shell 23, and the liquid falls on the fixed The liquid flows into the ring 233 and then flows from the drainage hole 234 to the bottom of the inner shell 23. After the liquid flows down from the outside of the inner shell 23, it finally flows into the connecting ring 214 and then is discharged into the annular plate 13 from the drainage short pipe 211. Then the heating component 24 heats the inner shell. At this time, the liquid takes away the heat from the outside of the inner shell 23 when it flows down from the outside of the inner shell 23. After the heated liquid enters the annular plate 13, it will be sucked away by the pumping pipe 254 again. After passing through the plate heat exchanger 253, it is cooled by the plate heat exchanger 253 and then continues to be discharged by the drainage elbow 252. The liquid in the annular plate 13 floods the joints between the outer shell 21, the inner shell 23 and the base 11, and forms a seal on the joints between the inner shell 23 and the base 11, thereby preventing the rubber seal from aging, etc., which would cause the protective gas in the furnace to leak and the outside air to penetrate, causing the strip steel in the furnace to be oxidized or even nitrided, resulting in the quality failure of a large number of products. When the liquid flows through the outer side of the inner shell 23, part of it is evaporated, and the air pump 262 passes through the outer shell 23. The connecting hose 263 extracts steam between the outer shell 21 and the inner shell 23. When heating is completed, the valve in the drain short pipe 211 is closed, and the air pump 262 extracts gas between the inner shell 23 and the outer shell 21 through the connecting hose 263, so that a low vacuum state is formed between the inner shell 23 and the outer shell 21, preventing the heat in the furnace from being dissipated outward mainly through the furnace shell when in the heat preservation state. The liquid level sensor in the annular plate 13 monitors the liquid level in the annular plate 13 in real time to prevent the liquid level from falling below the joint between the inner shell 23 and the base 11, or the liquid from overflowing from the annular plate 13.
