Furthermore, if terms such as "first" or "second" appear in the description of this utility model, they are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0020] In the description of the embodiments of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0021] As shown in the attached figure, the present invention includes a tank body 5 and a heating device. The tank body 5 is divided into upper and lower parts by a perforated partition 6. A drain pipe and a water inlet pipe are respectively provided on the lower part of the tank body 5. The heating device includes a central heating pipe 7 coaxially installed in the tank body 5 and a set of outer heating pipes 8 arranged in a ring around the central heating pipe 7. The set of outer heating pipes 8 are respectively connected to the central heating pipe 7 through two sets of connecting pipes 9.

[0022] The molten wax or wax blocks are stored in the wax storage tank 1 and are easily transported and filled after melting. A perforated partition 6 separates the wax blocks at the top, preventing the upper wax blocks from sinking to the bottom after melting. Water is filled into the tank body 5 located below the perforated partition 6, with the water level not exceeding two-thirds of the lower part of the tank body 5. The heating device heats both the water and wax simultaneously, causing the molten wax to float on the water surface. The drain pipe is located above the water level, draining the molten wax without carrying water out. The central heating pipe 7, the outer heating pipe 8, and the connecting pipe 9 form a three-dimensional heating system that can simultaneously heat the upper and lower layers of molten wax within the entire tank body 5, improving melting efficiency. Furthermore, since there is no stirring device, the water and molten wax do not flow in the molten state, allowing impurities to settle at the bottom for easy separation.

[0023] Furthermore, a drain pipe is provided at the bottom of the tank 5, and one end of the bottom of the central heating pipe 7 passes through the perforated partition 6 and extends to the outside of the tank 5. When the machine is stopped, the drain pipe can be opened to drain the water and sediment in the tank 5, and water can be refilled at the same time to maintain the water level in the tank 5.

[0024] Furthermore, a throttling plate 10 is provided in the central heating pipe 7 located between the upper and lower sets of connecting pipes 9. Both the upper and lower ends of the outer heating pipe 8 are closed, and one bottom end of the outer heating pipe 8 is connected to the central heating pipe 7 through the return pipe 12.

[0025] The throttling plate 10 reduces the diameter of the central heating pipe 7, blocking the steam entering the central heating pipe 7. As a result, the steam is dispersed from the lower connecting pipe 9 into the outer heating pipes 8, and then enters the upper part of the central heating pipe 7 through the upper connecting pipe 9. This allows the steam to flow in the central heating pipe 7, the outer heating pipes 8, and the connecting pipe 9, resulting in uniform heating. The condensate in the upper part flows back through the holes of the throttling plate 10. Preferably, the opening diameter of the throttling plate 10 is no more than 10 mm. When the condensate flows back, it can reduce or block the holes of the throttling plate 10, allowing more steam to disperse into the lower connecting pipe 9 and reducing energy consumption.

[0026] The diameter of the return pipe 12 is smaller than that of the central heating pipe 7 and the outer heating pipe 8. It is mainly used for the condensate from each outer heating pipe 8 to return to the central heating pipe 7.

[0027] Preferably, there are 6 outer heating tubes 8, the connecting pipes 9 between two outer heating tubes 8 located in opposite directions are at the same height, and the connecting pipes 9 on two adjacent outer heating tubes 8 are staggered in height.

[0028] That is, the connecting pipe 9 between the two opposite outer heating pipes 8 is connected to form a straight pipe, so that the steam can be evenly distributed into the two opposite outer heating pipes 8. The straight pipes are not at the same height, so they can heat wax blocks at different heights.

[0029] Furthermore, a layered rack 14 is provided inside the tank body 5 located between the upper and lower sets of connecting pipes 9, and a set of perforated plates 15 are arranged in a ring on the layered rack 14.

[0030] The layered rack 14 and the perforated plate 15 are used to divide the wax block into upper and lower layers. The molten wax in the upper layer can flow down and quickly cover the wax block below, thereby improving the overall melting efficiency of the wax block.

[0031] In the first connection method, the perforated plate 15 is hinged to the layered frame 14. Each perforated plate 15 can be opened, facilitating access for inspection and replacement by personnel.

[0032] The second connection method for the perforated plate 15 is that the perforated plate 15 can be detachably installed on the layered rack 14. The perforated plate 15 is movable and can be directly removed.

[0033] The layered rack 14 is provided with a perforated plate mounting slot, and the perforated plate 15 is movably placed in the perforated plate mounting slot.
