[0030] This utility model discloses a kiln replacement chamber exhaust pressure maintaining device, according to the attached... Figure 1-2 As shown, it includes a replacement chamber 1 and an exhaust pressure holding unit 2. The exhaust pressure holding unit 2 is connected to the outside of the replacement chamber 1. The replacement chamber 1 is provided with a working area 13, and a connection port 133 is opened on the outside of the working area 13. The exhaust pressure holding unit 2 includes a stainless steel cover plate 21 and a pneumatic butterfly valve 22. The stainless steel cover plate 21 is located directly above the connection port 133 and is used to close the connection port 133. An air outlet 212 is provided on the top of the stainless steel cover plate 21. The pneumatic butterfly valve 22 is sleeved on the outside of the air outlet 212.

[0031] This kiln replacement chamber exhaust and pressure-maintaining device effectively prevents air from entering the furnace, stabilizes the internal atmosphere, and reduces the risk of oxygen content fluctuations. It also enables pressure regulation during the furnace entry and exit processes, reducing furnace pressure fluctuations and protecting the material reaction process. The gas replacement flow rate can be adjusted via manual valve 23, allowing for flexible system operation and adaptation to different working conditions. This improves the consistency of material reaction, reduces scrap rate, and increases yield. The modification structure is simple, low-cost, and easy to implement, possessing wide applicability and promotional value.

[0032] According to the appendix Figure 1-2 As shown, the replacement chamber 1 is further provided with a front end 11 and a rear end 12. The front end 11 and the rear end 12 are located on the front and rear sides of the working area 13. The top of the rear end 12 is connected to the kiln exhaust pipe 121, and the rear end 12 is used to connect to the kiln.

[0033] According to the appendix Figure 1-2 As shown, a front gate chamber 131 is further provided on the front side of the working area 13, and a first gate 1311 is provided inside the front gate chamber 131. A rear gate chamber 132 is connected to the rear side of the working area 13, and a second gate 1321 is provided inside the rear gate chamber 132.

[0034] According to the appendix Figure 1-2 As shown, specifically disclosed, the first gate 1311 is used to seal and isolate the front end 11 and the working area 13, and the second gate 1321 is used to seal and isolate the rear end 12 and the working area 13.

[0035] According to the appendix Figure 1-3 As shown, a fixing bolt 211 is inserted into the stainless steel cover plate 21.

[0038] Working principle: During operation, the pneumatic butterfly valve 22 is linked with the control system of the first gate 1311 and the second gate 1321. When the sagger enters the furnace, the first gate 1311 rises. After the sagger enters the working area 13, the first gate 1311 closes. After the first gate 1311 is fully closed, the pneumatic component 221 drives the pneumatic butterfly valve 22 to open, starting gas replacement. The replacement air volume is adjusted by the manual valve 23. When the main furnace meets the sagger entry conditions, the pneumatic butterfly valve 22 closes the moment the second gate 1321 rises, maintaining stable pressure inside the furnace.
