[0042] The present embodiment designs a cyclone dust collector 5 to reduce the speed of the inert gas with dust entering the first inlet 103 by changing the diameter of the tube cavity of the cyclone dust collector 5, thereby achieving preliminary dust removal. The inert gas after preliminary dust removal enters the dust removal chamber 101. The gas in the dust removal chamber 101 flows from the dust removal chamber 101 through the air inlet pipe 3 and enters the air inlet 202 of the fan under the action of the fan assembly 2. After entering the air inlet 202, the gas flows out of the first outlet 104 through the air outlet 201 through the air outlet pipe 4 under the action of the fan assembly 2. After the dust collector for circulating and purifying the inert gas and maintaining its concentration is repaired or maintained, the oxygen content in the dust removal chamber 101 for inert gas dust removal in the dust collector for circulating and purifying the inert gas and maintaining its concentration increases.

Compared with the air pipe connection of the prior conventional technology, the connection points are reduced, the possibility of gas leakage is reduced, and maintenance is facilitated.

[0053] Furthermore, the cooling box 11 is a water cooling box. In this embodiment, the cooling box 11 is designed as a water cooling box, which has a simple structure and is easy to maintain.

[0054] Further, the gas introduced into the accumulator 1501 is an inert gas. In this embodiment, the gas introduced into the accumulator 1501 is an inert gas to avoid the change of the inert gas concentration of the dust collector used for circulating and purifying the inert gas and maintaining its concentration due to the gas ejected by the blowing assembly 15.
