In this embodiment, the heating device includes multiple independently controlled heating tubes 11, and the position of the heating tubes 11 is lower than the position of the upper end of the support base 10. A guide device is also provided at the bottom of the furnace body 1. The guide device is an air duct provided at the bottom of the furnace body 1.
