Abstract
A stove includes a stage, a stove, a housing, and an exhaust pipe is disclosed. Wherein, the stove is disposed on the stage and includes a chamber made of metal and a thermal insulation structure. The chamber includes a cavity, an entry, and an air outlet. The thermal insulation structure covers an exterior of the chamber. The housing is disposed outside of the stove and joined to the stage. An isolation space is formed between the housing and the stove. The exhaust pipe passes through the housing and communicates with the air outlet and the exterior of the housing. The heat source is adapted to heat the cavity. Whereby, a compact size kiln is realized.
