CA 2626002

Kilns for processing ceramics and methods for using such kilns are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a kiln includes an inner body configured to hold one or more ceramic workpieces for processing. The kiln can also include an outer body at least partially surrounding the inner body and spaced apart from the inner body to define an airflow passageway therebetween. The airflow passageway includes an inlet proximate to an upper portion of the outer body and an outlet proximate to a lower portion of the outer body. The kiln can further include an air mover positioned to move air through the airflow passageway from the inlet toward the outlet. In several embodiments, the kiln can additionally include a lid assembly pivotably coupled to the outer body and configured to sealably close against at least the inner body.

L'invention concerne des fours de traitement de céramiques et des procédés d'utilisation de tels fours. Dans un mode de réalisation, un four comporte un corps interne configuré pour contenir une ou plusieurs pièces à usiner céramiques à des fins de traitement. Le four peut également comprendre un corps externe entourant au moins partiellement le corps interne et espacé du corps interne pour définir un passage d'écoulement d'air entre ceux-ci. Le passage d'écoulement d'air contient une entrée proche d'une portion supérieure du corps externe et une sortie proche d'une portion inférieure du corps externe. Le four peut également comporter un agitateur d'air positionné de manière faire passer l'air à travers le passage d'écoulement d'air de l'entrée vers la sortie. Dans plusieurs modes de réalisation, le four peut également comprendre un ensemble de couvercle couplé de façon pivotante au corps externe pour constituer une fermeture étanche contre au moins le corps interne.
