A front mounting ring 13 is slidably connected to the interior of the electric heating element 3. The interior of the front mounting ring 13 defines multiple carbon powder tube insertion slots 15, and multiple graphite rod insertion slots 16. A carbon powder tube 17 is fixedly connected to the carbon powder tube insertion slots 15. The end of the carbon powder tube 17, away from the front mounting ring 13, is fixedly connected to a rear mounting ring 18. A graphite threaded seat 20 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rear mounting ring 18. A graphite rod 21 is threadedly connected to the interior of the graphite threaded seat 20. An inner slot 22 is defined inside the rear mounting ring 18, and the inner heating element 4 is slidably connected to the interior of the inner slot 22. The interior of the heating furnace 1 is equipped with three sleeves. The outermost sleeve 2 is filled with the material to be heated. The middle sleeve 3 is the electric heating element 3, and its interior is used to accommodate the heating device and heat transfer medium. The innermost portion is the inner heating cylinder 4, which is filled with the material to be heated. Before installing the device, the carbon powder tube 17 and graphite rod 21 can be assembled between the front mounting ring 13 and the rear mounting ring 18. The carbon powder tube insertion slot 15 in the front mounting ring 13 is designed to receive the carbon powder tube 17, connecting the front and rear mounting rings 13 and 18. The carbon powder tube insertion slot 15 also allows the addition of heating medium, carbon powder, to the interior of the carbon powder tube 17. The graphite threaded seat 20 is internally threaded, while the rear end of the graphite rod 21 has external threads. The graphite rod 21 is inserted into the graphite rod insertion slot 16 and rotated to install it within the threaded seat 20. Supplying electricity to the graphite rod 21 generates heat, heating the carbon powder surrounding it. Once assembled, the entire device, between the front mounting ring 13 and the rear mounting ring 18, is inserted into the inner heating cylinder 4 inside the electric heating cylinder 3. Finally, add carbon powder to the inside of the carbon powder tube 17, let the carbon powder fill the inside of the electric heating tube 3 and wrap the graphite rod 21, and energize the graphite rod 21 to heat the carbon powder, so that the inner and outer walls of the electric heating tube 3 are heated, and then heat the materials inside the outer heating tube 2 and the inner heating tube 4.

[0032] Reference Figure 3 The rear end surface of the carbon powder tube 17 is provided with a carbon powder discharge groove 19. The carbon powder added to the carbon powder tube 17 can be discharged through the carbon powder discharge groove 19 and filled in the interior of the electric heating tube 3 and the surface of the graphite rod, thereby increasing the contact area between the material and the graphite rod and protecting the graphite rod.

[0033] Reference Figure 1-4The front end of the front mounting ring 13 is fixedly connected to a threaded connection seat 14, and the front end of the inner heating tube 4 is fixedly connected to a threaded mounting seat 5.

A groove 25 is formed inside the front top cover 23 and on the surface of the threaded connection seat 14. When the front top cover 23 is placed on the front end of the heating furnace 1, the front electrode holder 24 can contact the front end of the graphite rod 21. The groove 25 is used to accommodate the threaded connection seat 14.

[0036] Reference Figure 4 A rear electrode holder 28 is mounted on the rear end of the heating furnace 1, near the rear mounting ring 18. A second feeding trough 27 is mounted on the rear end of the heating furnace 1, near the outer heat cylinder 2. A first feeding trough 26 is mounted on the rear end of the heating furnace 1, near the inner heat cylinder 4. The rear electrode holder 28 is used to contact the rear end of the graphite rod 21. The heating material in the outer heat cylinder 2 and the heating material in the inner heat cylinder 4 can be easily added and discharged through the second feeding trough 27 and the first feeding trough 26.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 The surface of the heating furnace 1 is rotatably connected to a limit ring 7, and the bottom end of the limit ring 7 is fixedly connected to a support base 12. The heating furnace 1 as a whole can rotate inside the limit ring 7. Two front and rear limit rings 7 are installed on the surface of the heating furnace 1. The support base 12 is used to support the limit rings 7, making the heating furnace 1 more stable during rotation.

[0038] Reference Figure 2The surface of the heating furnace 1 is fixedly connected to a first meshing gear 8, the lower end of the first meshing gear 8 is meshedly connected to a second meshing gear 9, the interior of the second meshing gear 9 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 10, and a motor 11 is installed on the top of the rotating shaft 10. When the motor 11 is started, it can drive the rotating shaft 10 to rotate, and then drive the second meshing gear 9 and the first meshing gear 8 to rotate through the rotating shaft 10. When the material inside the heating furnace 1 is heated, the first meshing gear 8 can be used to drive the heating furnace 1 to rotate, rotating the material inside the heating furnace 1, so that the material is heated evenly and the heating efficiency is improved.

[0039] The implementation principle of an embodiment of a graphite rod electric heating furnace of the present application is as follows: three layers of sleeves are installed inside the heating furnace 1, and the outermost layer is the outer heat cylinder 2, the interior of which is filled with the material to be heated. The middle layer is the electric heating cylinder 3, the interior of which is used to install the heating device and the heat transfer medium. The innermost layer is the inner heat cylinder 4, the interior of which is used to fill the material to be heated. Before the device is installed, the carbon powder tube 17 and the graphite rod 21 can be assembled between the front mounting ring 13 and the rear mounting ring 18. The carbon powder tube plug-in groove 15 opened in the front mounting ring 13 is used to plug in the carbon powder tube 17. The carbon powder tube 17 can connect the front mounting ring 13 and the rear mounting ring 18 together. At the same time, the heating medium carbon powder can be added to the interior of the carbon powder tube 17 through the carbon powder tube plug-in groove 15. After the assembly is completed, the entire device between the front mounting ring 13 and the rear mounting ring 18 is inserted into the surface of the inner heat cylinder 4 inside the electric heating cylinder 3.

[0040] Finally, add carbon powder to the inside of the carbon powder tube 17, let the carbon powder fill the inside of the electric heating tube 3 and wrap the graphite rod 21, and energize the graphite rod 21 to heat the carbon powder, so that the inner and outer walls of the electric heating tube 3 are heated, thereby heating the materials inside the outer heating tube 2 and the inner heating tube 4. When the motor 11 is started, it can drive the shaft 10 to rotate, and then drive the second gear 9 and the first gear 8 to rotate through the shaft 10. When the internal material of the heating furnace 1 is heated, the first gear 8 can be used to drive the heating furnace 1 to rotate, and the material inside the heating furnace 1 can be rotated to allow the material to be heated evenly, thereby improving the heating efficiency. This device can make full use of waste heat during heating, protect the heating device when in use, and at the same time use the heating medium to increase the contact area. Rotating the heating furnace allows the material to be heated evenly, thereby improving the heating efficiency.
