Abstract
A kiln has a bottom opening for loading the objects to be fired into the firing chamber. The door for closing the firing chamber provides the hearth of the kiln and supports the objects to be fired. A parallel linkage mechanism maintains the door in a horizontal orientation as it is moved from the closed position wherein the objects to be fired are in the kiln, to the open position wherein the objects are supported in front of the kiln.
