A bottom base 4 is disposed under the kiln body 1, and the bottom base 4 and the kiln body 1 are rotatably connected.

[0031] As a specific embodiment, at least two wheel belts 14 are disposed in the kiln body 1 in the embodiment. Two supporting rollers 41 are symmetrically disposed on the bottom base 4 for supporting the kiln body 1, and the supporting rollers 41 are respectively located below the wheel belts 14. The wheel belts 14 are respectively pressed against the supporting rollers 41.

[0032] A feeding port 21 is disposed on the kiln tail cover 2, and the feeding port 21 communicates with the kiln body 1 through a guide tube 22, and the guide tube extends to the inside of the kiln body 1 by penetrating the kiln tail cover 2. A discharge port 31 is disposed on the lower end of the kiln head cover 3.

[0033] As shown in FIG. 4, first refractory bricks 11 and second refractory bricks 12 are disposed at intervals in the kiln body 1, and the first refractory bricks 11 and the second refractory bricks 12 together form a tooth-shaped structure.

[0034] A drive device for driving the kiln body 1 to rotate is disposed between the bottom base 4 and the kiln body 1. As shown in FIG. 1, the drive device includes a motor 53, a reducer 54, a driving gear 51, and a driving gear ring 52. The output shaft of the motor 53 is connected to the input shaft of the reducer 54, the output shaft of the reducer 54 is connected to the driving gear 51, and the driving gear ring 52 meshed with the driving gear 51 is disposed on the kiln body 1. Preferably, the drive gear ring 52 is disposed in the middle of the kiln body 1.

[0035] As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3, and FIG. 6, a first fuel supply pipe 7 is disposed on the kiln body 1, and the first fuel supply pipe 7 includes a supply segment 71, a connecting segment 72, and a rotating segment 73. The supply segment 71 is fixedly disposed on the outer side wall of the kiln body 1. The wheel belt 14 and the driving gear ring 52 are both provided with through holes allowing the supply segment 71 to pass therethrough. The rotating segment 73 is disposed in the kiln tail cover 2 and disposed coaxially with the kiln body 1, and the rotating segment 73 passes through the kiln tail cover 2 to the left and extends to the outside of the kiln tail cover 2. The connecting segment 72 is disposed inside the kiln body 1 and located on one side of the guide tube 22. One end of the connecting segment 72 is connected to the end portion of the rotating segment 73, and another end of the connecting segment 72 passes through the side wall of the kiln body 1 and is connected to the end portion of the supply segment 71. Preferably, the connecting segment 72 is disposed in a radial direction.

[0036] The rotating segment 73 of the first fuel supply pipe 7 is connected to the fuel supply source 8 through a rotatory joint 9. The structure of the rotatory joint 9 is the prior art, which is not iterated herein.

[0037] As shown in FIG. 1, multiple groups of combustion components 6 are disposed on the outer side wall of the kiln body 1 in the axial direction. As a specific implementation, four groups of combustion components 6 are disposed on the outer side wall of the kiln body 1 in the embodiment. A fuel inlet of each of the combustion components 6 is connected to the supply segment 71 of the first fuel supply pipe 7 through a branch pipe 62. The nozzle of each of the combustion components 6 passes through the side wall of the kiln body 1 and extends to the inside of the kiln body 1.

[0038] Meanwhile, the branch pipe 62 can be a hose or a hard pipe.

[0039] As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 5, each of the combustion components 6 includes a burner 61 fixedly disposed on the kiln body 1, the fuel inlet of the burner 61 of each of the combustion components 6 is connected to the supply segment 71 of the first fuel supply pipe 7 through the branch pipe 62, and a valve 64 for controlling the fuel flow is disposed on the branch pipe 62. The air inlet of the burner 61 is connected to a fan 63.

[0040] Herein, the combustion component 6 can also be an integrated combustor. However, as a preferable implementation, the combustion component 6 in the embodiment adopts a combined structure mainly because the combustion component 6 rotates with the kiln body 1 during operation. Therefore, it is better that the combustion component 6 has a small volume. If an integrated combustor is used, the radius of gyration is large, and the size of other components needs to be proportionally adjusted according to the size of the combustor, such as an increased height of the bottom base 4 and the like, and this may increase the structural size of the overall equipment.

[0041] Furthermore, to prevent the material in the kiln body 1 from blocking the burner 61 during operation and to ensure the normal operation of the burner, as shown in FIG. 5, the burner brick 13 disposed on the side wall of the kiln body 1 is higher than the inner wall of the kiln body 1. Meanwhile, the burner brick 13 and the configuration belong to the prior art and are also used in conventional kilns, which are not iterated herein.

Embodiment Two

[0042] As shown in FIG. 7, the rotating segment 73 is disposed in the kiln head cover 3 and disposed coaxially with the kiln body 1, and the right end of the rotating segment 73 passes through the kiln head cover 3 and extends to the outside of the kiln head cover 3.

[0043] Furthermore, during operation, in the kiln body 1, the temperature at the feeding end is lower than the temperature at the discharge end, and when the rotating segment 73 is disposed in the kiln head cover 3, if the connecting segment 72 is still disposed in the kiln body 1, there is a safety hazard in a high temperature environment. To prevent this, as shown in FIG. 7, the connecting segment 72 is disposed in the kiln head cover 3, one end of the connecting segment 72 is connected to the end portion of the rotating segment 73, another end of the connecting segment 72 is connected to the end portion of the supply segment 71, and the end portion of the supply segment 71 extends into the kiln head cover 3. Preferably, the connecting segment 72 is arranged in a radial direction. The rest of the structure is the same as that in embodiment one.
