    摘要: A supported superconducting magnet includes a superconducting magnet arranged within an outer vacuum container and a support structure bearing the weight of the superconducting magnet against a support surface. The support structure includes a tubular suspension element located between the magnet and the support surface, the tubular suspension element retaining the magnet in a fixed relative position with reference to the outer vacuum container by means of complementary interface surfaces arranged to transmit the weight of the superconducting magnet to the support structure. The tubular suspension element is arranged about a generally vertical axis, and supports a solenoidal magnet structure which is arranged about a generally horizontal axis.

    摘要: A method for controlling egress of gas from a cryogen vessel (12) housing a superconducting magnet (10). A controller (30) receives data indicative of gas pressure within the cryogen vessel; a controlled valve (40) controls the egress of cryogen gas from the cryogen vessel (12); and data is made available to the controller, indicating a state of the magnet. Egress of cryogen gas from the cryogen vessel is controlled by operation of the controlled valve (40) by the controller (30) in response to the available data indicating a state of the magnet.

    摘要: In a magnet system for MRI imaging comprising a superconducting magnet (10) mounted within a cryogen vessel (12), apparatus is provided for controlling egress of cryogen gas from the cryogen vessel. The apparatus comprises a controlled valve (42) linking the interior of the cryogen vessel to a gas exit path; and a controller (30) arranged to control the valve. The valve is arranged such that a gas pressure in the cryogen vessel exceeding a gas pressure in the gas exit path acts on the valve to open the valve and allow venting of cryogen gas. The valve is also arranged such that a gas pressure in the cryogen vessel inferior to a gas pressure in the gas exit path acts on the valve to urge it closed, so restricting flow of gas into the cryogen vessel.
