Abstract: A superconducting magnet system for head imaging is disclosed which includes a cryocooler, a high-pressure helium container, a self-excitation heat pipe and a superconducting magnet. A second stage coldhead of the cryocooler is connected to the high-pressure helium container for converting the helium gas in the high-pressure helium container into liquid helium. The self-excitation heat pipe forms a closed cooling loop, and liquid helium in the high-pressure helium container flows circularly in the self-excitation heat pipe. The self-excitation heat pipe cools the superconducting magnet, wherein part of the liquid helium in the self-excitation heat pipe is converted into the helium gas due to the heat disturbance generated by the superconducting magnet, and the helium gas interacts with the liquid helium to generate liquid helium vibration.

Abstract: An open type nuclear magnetic resonance magnet system having an iron ring member. A superconducting coil and a superconducting switch form a closed-loop current circuit to generate a magnetic field. The generated magnetic field gains a magnetic flux circuit and executes magnetic field shielding through upper and lower iron yokes and a lateral iron yoke. The magnet system generates a desired magnetic field in a magnet imaging central area via the superconducting coil. To balance the extremely high electromagnetic force between the superconducting coil and the upper and lower iron yokes, an annular iron ring is mounted in a space defined by an inner perimeter wall of in a cryogenic container. The magnetic field distribution between the superconducting coil and the upper and lower iron yokes is changed via the iron ring, so that the electromagnetic interaction force therebetween is reduced.
