[0025] Example 1:

[0026] This embodiment provides a furnace body structure for a pit-type furnace, specifically as follows: Figures 1-4As shown, the furnace includes a furnace body 101 and a cooling fan 107. The furnace body 101 is equipped with a muffle tank 109, an insulation layer 110, a furnace cover 105, and a heating unit 114. The insulation layer 110 is a rigid fiber module. The furnace cover 105 is used to seal the muffle tank 109. The furnace body 101 has an air inlet at the bottom and an air outlet at the top. The cooling fan 107 pumps air into the furnace body 101 from the air inlet and then discharges it from the air outlet. The furnace is characterized by: an air inlet pipe 113 installed at the air inlet, the air inlet pipe 113 being L-shaped, and a valve body 104 installed on the air inlet pipe 113, the other end of which is connected to the output end of the cooling fan 107; a valve body 104 is also installed at the air outlet.

[0027] It also includes an adjustment mechanism that allows the air inlet pipe 113 to rotate on the valve body 104, that is, it allows one end of the air inlet pipe 113 in the furnace body 101 to change from pointing towards the muffle tank 109 to facing away from the muffle tank 109.

[0028] During operation, the workpiece is placed in the muffle tank 109, and then the muffle tank 109 is sealed with the furnace lid 105, and all valves 104 are in a closed state. At this time, the heating unit 114 starts heating, and the heat is transferred to the workpiece inside the muffle tank 109. At the same time, the insulation layer 110 can insulate the heat and prevent heat loss. After the workpiece is heat-treated, all valves 104 are opened and the cooling fan 107 is started. At this time, the cooling fan 107 draws outside air into the furnace body 101 through the air inlet pipe 113. The air inlet pipe 113 blows the air upward and then discharges it from the air outlet. Heat exchange occurs through the air flow, thereby cooling the furnace body and the muffle tank 109. After repeated use, due to the influence of airflow and temperature, the insulation layer 110 will have debris falling to the bottom of the furnace body 101. At this time, the air inlet pipe 113 is rotated by the adjustment mechanism so that one end of the air inlet pipe 113 inside the furnace body 101 is facing down. At this time, the cooling fan 107 is reversed so that the air inlet pipe 113 is facing down and the debris accumulated at the bottom of the furnace body 101 is discharged.

[0029] This setting ensures that a large amount of insulation layer 110 debris will not accumulate at the bottom of the furnace body 101, and no manual cleaning is required from staff. The entire cleaning process is efficient and highly clean, reducing the difficulty of furnace maintenance.

[0030] Example 2:

[0031] This embodiment further defines the adjustment mechanism based on the above embodiments, specifically as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the adjustment mechanism includes an adjustment cylinder 115, a rack 116 is installed at the output end of the adjustment cylinder 115, and a gear 117 is installed on the air intake pipe 113, with the rack 116 meshing with the gear 117.

[0032] By adjusting the cylinder 115 to push the rack 116, the rack 116 drives the gear 117 to rotate, so that the air inlet pipe 113 rotates synchronously. The maximum rotation angle of the air inlet pipe 113 is 180°, that is, one end of the air inlet pipe 113 in the furnace body 101 can only blow air upward or suck air downward.

[0033] The other parts of this embodiment are the same as those in the above embodiments, and will not be described again.

[0034] Example 3:

[0035] This embodiment further expands the valve body 104 based on the above embodiment, specifically as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the valve body 104 includes a valve shell, a cylinder bracket 119, and an adjustment knob 118. The cylinder bracket 119 is mounted on the valve shell, and the adjustment knob 118 is used to adjust the flow rate of the valve body 104. A valve cylinder 111 is hinged to the cylinder bracket 119, and the valve cylinder 111 is hinged to the adjustment knob 118.

[0036] By activating the valve cylinder 111, the adjustment knob 118 is rotated by the extension and retraction of the valve cylinder 111, thereby adjusting the flow rate of the valve body 104. The valve cylinder 111 replaces manual adjustment, reducing the frequency of personnel climbing and lowering potential risks. Moreover, the adjustment using the valve cylinder 111 is more precise and convenient.

[0037] The other parts of this embodiment are the same as those in the above embodiments, and will not be described again.

[0038] Example 4:

[0039] This embodiment further extends the above embodiment, specifically as follows: Figure 3 As shown, a dispersion baffle 112 is installed on the furnace body 101. The dispersion baffle 112 is in the shape of an inverted cone and is used to disperse the air blown out from the air inlet pipe 113.

[0040] By setting up a dispersion baffle 112 to disperse the air blown out from the air inlet pipe 113, the air inlet pipe 113 is prevented from continuously blowing air onto the same position at the bottom of the muffle tank 109, which would cause the local area of ​​the muffle tank 109 to cool down too quickly, thereby improving the uniformity of heat dissipation.

[0041] The other parts of this embodiment are the same as those in the above embodiments, and will not be described again.

[0042] Example 5:

[0043] This embodiment further extends the above embodiment, specifically as follows: Figure 1As shown, a reinforcing frame 102 is sleeved on the furnace body 101, a base 106 is installed on the reinforcing frame 102, and multiple mounting holes 108 are opened on the reinforcing frame 102.

[0044] The base 106 supports the reinforcing frame 102, which reinforces the furnace body 101 and improves the overall strength of the furnace body. At the same time, the mounting holes 108 facilitate the subsequent installation of other auxiliary tools on the reinforcing frame 102, improving the ease of installation.

[0045] The other parts of this embodiment are the same as those in the above embodiments, and will not be described again.

[0046] Example 6:

[0047] This embodiment further extends the above embodiment, specifically as follows: Figure 1 As shown, a protective ladder 103 is installed on the reinforcing frame 102.

[0048] By installing the protective ladder 103, the staff can be protected during the climbing process, preventing them from falling.

[0049] The other parts of this embodiment are the same as those in the above embodiments, and will not be described again.

[0050] Example 7:

[0051] This embodiment further extends the above embodiment, wherein the number of air outlets is at least two. The number of air inlets is usually one, but in order to ensure that the air pumped into the furnace body 101 can be completely discharged and to ensure the air pressure balance of the furnace body 101, the number of air outlets is usually more than the number of air inlets.

[0052] The other parts of this embodiment are the same as those in the above embodiments, and will not be described again.
