What 𤰶 means
It is an old form of the Chinese character 申. The Chinese dictionary Yupian records 𤰶 as an old form of 申. In Chinese, 申 can mean “extend” or “state”; it also names the ninth sign in the traditional twelve-sign cycle used to mark years and hours.
Unicode keeps this code for round-trip conversion with Taiwan’s CNS 11643 character standard. Use it for legacy text exchange; ordinary Chinese writing uses 申.

1Why does 𤰶 turn into 𤰶?
Normalization—a software process that merges equivalent encodings—can do that: it rewrites 𤰶 as 𤰶. Unicode defines 𤰶︀, with an invisible selector, to preserve the distinction through normalization; the displayed form still depends on font support.
