Device for firing ceramic for dental prostheses
View Patent ↗A heating muffle for a muffle kiln for the production of a dental ceramic product containing titanium, which comprises a hollow unit, which is provided with at least one opening for the uptake of the ceramic product and has completely heatable inner walls, an which can form together with a pedestal a firing chamber in which the ceramic product is heated by the inner walls, wherein the hollow unit comprises at least one spirally bent tube containing a heat conductor for a uniform heat transfer to the product and in order to avoid temperature gradients.
1. A heating muffle for a muffle kiln for the production of a dental ceramic product containing titanium, which comprises a hollow unit, which is provided for the uptake of the ceramic product with at least one opening ( 11 ) and has completely heatable inner walls, and which can form together with a pedestal a firing chamber in which the ceramic product is heated by the inner walls, is hereby characterized in that the hollow unit comprises at least one spirally bent tube ( 16 ) containing a heat conductor ( 18 ) for a uniform heat transfer to the product and in order to avoid temperature gradients.
2. The heating muffle according to claim 1 , further characterized in that the opening ( 11 ) of the hollow unit is aligned toward the bottom in the operating position and can act together with a pedestal to form the firing chamber after taking up the ceramic product.
3. The heating muffle according to claim 1 or 2 , further characterized in that the hollow unit is comprised of a cylinder sealed on one end with a cylinder cover ( 12 ; 12 ′).
4. The heating muffle according to claim 3 , further characterized in that the cylinder cover is flat ( 12 ) or arched ( 12 ′).
5. The heating muffle according to one of claims 1 or 2 , further characterized in that the hollow unit is essentially hemispherically shaped or essentially spherically shaped.
