Problems solved by technology

[0005] In this cryostat, the refrigerant in the refrigerant container must be kept at an extremely low temperature. However, the internal superconducting coil must be connected to the external power supply through a current wire, and heat intrusion from the current wire connecting the inside and outside cannot be avoided.

Abstract

A cooling container includes a coolant container (20) for accommodating an object to be cooled (90) and a liquid coolant (60) in the inside, a lid member (30) capable of closing the upper opening of the coolant container, a cooling means (40) hung from and supported by the lid member and having a cooling section at the lower end, and electric current leads (91) hung from and supported by the lid member, for making electric current flow into the object to be cooled inside the coolant container. The electric current leads each have a thermal resistance section (92) having a higher thermal resistance than the surrounding portions, at a position above the liquid surface of the liquid coolant in the coolant container. Between the thermal resistance sections and the cooling section of the cooling means, a partition section (50) made from a heat insulation material is provided such that the lower end of the partition section is below the thermal resistance sections. As a result, the effect of penetrating heat can be prevented to allow the inside of the coolant container to be efficiently cooled.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a cooling container for cooling an object to be cooled by means of a liquid refrigerant in the container. Background technique [0002] Superconducting magnetic field generators used in SMES (Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage), superconducting transformers, superconducting current limiters, NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance: Nuclear Magnetic Resonance), semiconductor pull-in devices, etc. In the field of conductive magnets and the like, superconducting wires or superconducting thin films using superconductors represented by yttrium-based and bismuth-based superconductors are used. To superconduct these superconducting wires, they must be cooled to extremely low temperatures. [0003] Usually, a superconducting wire is stored in a state of a superconducting coil in a vacuum-insulated cooling container called a cryostat for cooling. [0004] A conventional cryostat includes: a cryogen container for accommodating a s...
