The magnet system (1) is characterized by control means (4) for reading-in and controlling which read-in data of a storage medium (7) associated with the superconducting magnet (3) into a power supply (2) and which control the charging of the superconducting magnet coil (3) by the power supply (2) using the read-in data. The magnet system (1) facilitates a fully automatic, safe and rapid charging of a superconducting magnet coil (3) and guarantees better reproduceability and an optimal charging process.

Abstract: The invention concerns a vibration-damping mount (1) for vibration-sensitive equipment and apparatus. The vibration-damping mount (1) has a damping device (10), a supporting structure (20) connected thereto, shock absorption elements (30), and height adapters (40). The vibration-damping mount (1) can be divided, and can be erected without changing the position of the unit being held.

Abstract: The invention provides a cryostat whose components are detachably connected to each other. Each of the tanks (1, 7) is equipped with only one radial pipe (15 or 16) arranged at the end of the tank (1, 7). Each of the inner components (3, 7) is provided, at its end neighboring the pipe (15), with a detachable cover (5, 9), and provided with a recess (31, 71) into which the pipe (15) can be introduced from the end of the component. The jacket (11) is divided in a plane neighboring the pipes (15, 16). The shorter section (45) comprises a recess for the pipes (15, 16) passing through the jacket, and a connection for a tower (19) enclosing the pipes. This makes it possible to do without any welded connections between those sections of the concentrically arranged components which pass through each other.

Abstract: The components of cryostats are interconnected by means of tension members which are frequently made from a fiber glass reinforced plastic material. Such members, which exhibit a rectangular cross-section and bores for receiving the mounting bolts have shown to be not fully reliable because they tend to break easily in the areas of the bores. Consequently, loop-like tension members have been frequently used; but their production is expensive and connected with considerable production tolerances. The invention proposes to use a tension member which is cut out from a plastic sheet material reinforced by a fiber glass weave, and which comprises an elongated portion (21) with parallel edges, followed on both ends by enlarged areas (22) with bores (25) for the mounting bolts. The transition between the central area (21) and the enlarged areas (22) is formed by a transition portion (23) with arc-shaped edges (24).
