The inlet regulating assembly comprises a main inlet valve, an inlet regulating body, an inlet flange and a plurality of regulating valves. The inlet regulating body is mounted on the inlet flange. An inlet cavity in communication with the main inlet valve is disposed within the inlet regulating body. Exhaust holes corresponding to the regulating valves individually are provided in the inlet flange from inside to outside. The exhaust holes is spaced uniformly and arranged in column. The exhaust holes and the inlet cavity are communicated via a buffering and pressure equalizing cavity. A regulating member of the regulating valves extends into the buffering and pressure equalizing cavity, and can be away from or close to an inlet end of the exhaust holes. The beneficial effects of the present invention are that the buffering and pressure equalizing cavity of the inlet regulating assembly allows gas to be buffered and pressure to be equalized; the regulating valves can regulate and control an amount of inlet gas entering into the exhaust holes and a flow rate of the inlet gas; and the inlet regulating assembly and the gas flow distribution regulating apparatus have good adaptability. In addition, the inlet regulating assembly provides a closed channel for the inlet process gas to avoid leakage.
