ABSTRACT:
A kiln for ceramic products has a firing chamber including sidewalls with opposed slots. A transport device for transporting the ceramic products through the firing chamber in a transport direction is provided. The transport device includes rods for supporting the ceramic products. The rods extend perpendicularly to the transport direction and penetrate the opposed slots. The transport device includes a rail system and holders movably guided on the rail system. The rods have a first and second ends supported by a first and second sets of holders and a second set of holders. The first and second sets of holders are respectively detachably connected to one another. The holders within the opposed slots are arranged directly adjacent to one another to tightly seal the slots. The firing chamber has an upstream end and a downstream end in the transport direction. The holders, with the rods supported thereon, are detached from one another at the downstream end and are transported back to the upstream end at a transport velocity greater than the transport velocity in the firing chamber. They are reconnected to the holders present at the upstream end for transport through the firing chamber.
