Abstract
An inductive heating apparatus includes two or more inductors (2, 3) connected to a single high-frequency generator (1). With such a heating apparatus, for example, the two supports (9, 10) in a cathode ray tube can be heated simultaneously. In order to have the heating of each support proceed properly, the heating operations of the individual supports (9, 10) should be effected independently. Independent interruption of the electromagnetic power transfer from the inductors (2, 3) to the supports (9, 10) is preferably effected by axially moving away from the workpiece (4) a coil core (6, 8) inside the associated induction coil (5, 7). This is advantageous in that the case of low-ohmic inductors no large currents and in the case of high-ohmic inductors no large voltages need to be switched. In addition, the induction coils, which in the case of low-ohmic inductors (2, 3) often consist of an internally cooled tubular conductor, can then be rigidly mounted.
