An exhaust oven for heat treating and simultaneously evacuating cathode ray tubes includes a tunnel structure with a through passageway and temperature control apparatus for providing regulated heating and/or cooling of the atmosphere in one or more longitudinal zones of the passageway. The oven also includes apparatus for conveying the tubes along the passageway and exhaust ducts operatively connected to the necks of the tubes during conveyance to evacuate gases therefrom. Baffles within at least one of the zones of the passageway circulate the atmosphere about the exteriro of the tubes. The baffles include at least one inlet directing a flow of atmosphere to impinge onto the face of the screen panel of each tube and one or more outlets in adjacent spaced relationship to side edges of said panel and/or to the neck of the tube for exit of the flow of atmosphere from the baffles. |
