Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a frame used in a conduction-cooled superconducting magnet, in particular to an integral frame for a multi-coil magnet structure, and a superconducting magnet assembly formed thereby, belonging to the technical field of superconducting magnets. Background Art
[0002] Superconducting magnet technology uses superconductors to make coils at ultra-low temperatures (liquid helium temperature, 4K, -269.15℃) with no wire resistance and therefore no electrical loss. It can allow ultra-high currents to pass through, thereby generating ultra-high magnetic fields, and uses ultra-high magnetic fields for some applications.
[0003] In superconducting magnet technology, there is a type of multi-coil technology that uses a common framework to wind superconducting coils, commonly used in magnetic resonance imaging. Furthermore, to break away from reliance on liquid helium refrigerants, small MRI superconducting magnets have recently transitioned from liquid helium immersion cooling to conduction cooling, a technology that is becoming increasingly mature.
[0004] At present, in the field of single-solenoid coils, the overall exoskeleton can be conveniently used to simplify the cooling mass structure; however, if the overall exoskeleton is used for multi-solenoid coils, the cooling mass structure will become more complicated, which is not conducive to reducing the weight of the cooling mass and improving the cooling efficiency.
[0005] Multi-solenoid coil technology often utilizes an integral internal skeleton structure. To achieve the most uniform temperature distribution possible, the skeleton must be constructed of high-thermal-conductivity metal materials, commonly copper, brass, aluminum, and aluminum alloys. On the one hand, the shrinkage of these materials is greater than that of the superconducting coil itself, making uniform compression of the coil skeleton and avoiding increased magnetic field inhomogeneity due to superconducting coil deformation a major design challenge. On the other hand, in addition to the robustness of the cold mass suspension support structure required for transportation and installation, the high stability of the magnetic field further necessitates a high preload to increase the overall stiffness of the suspension support structure. This, however, presents a conflict with the "soft" mechanical properties of the skeleton material.
[0006] Therefore, there is currently no suitable multi-coil integral inner skeleton engineering application solution, and further research and design are necessary. Summary of the Invention

[0074] The specific embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0075] The present invention mainly improves the multi-solenoid coil conduction cooling superconducting magnet assembly. First, the structure of the multi-coil overall inner frame is improved. The structure is as follows: Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, the multi-coil integral inner skeleton 1 is integrally forged and processed from high thermal conductivity metal materials. The high thermal conductivity metal materials include T2 copper, T3 copper, H65~H80 brass, or aluminum-magnesium alloy, etc., which have high thermal conductivity but low hardness.
[0076] The multi-coil integral inner skeleton 1 serves as a winding skeleton for the superconducting coil conductor. The inner wall is a cylindrical cavity used as a magnetic field channel. A number of flange plates are provided on the outside to separate the winding grooves 10 for the coil conductor. The flange plates are symmetrically distributed from the outside to the inside, and include an end flange 11, a first spacing flange 12, a second spacing flange 13, and a third spacing flange 14. Among them, the first spacing flange 12, the second spacing flange 13, and the third spacing flange 14 serve as spacing flanges, and the number of the first spacing flange 12, the second spacing flange 13, and the third spacing flange 14 can be adjusted according to specific circumstances, and the flange thickness can also be adjusted according to requirements. In the embodiment of the multi-coil integral inner skeleton 1 of the present invention, the cavity between the end flanges 11 on both sides is divided into 6 winding grooves 10 by the spacing flanges.
[0077] Coil lead lead grooves 15 are provided on the flange plate (end flange 11, spacer flange), i.e., on both side walls of the winding groove 10. Preferably, the coil lead lead grooves 15 extend from the bottom of the winding groove 10 to the top of the groove. When the conductor of the superconducting coil is wound in the winding groove 10, the wire ends and taps are embedded in the coil lead lead grooves 15 and led out from the winding groove 10. The conventional method at present is to glue an insulating plate of extra thickness to the flange plate, and then cut grooves in the insulating plate to lead out the wire ends. The present invention directly opens the coil lead lead grooves 15 on the metal body of the flange plate, which can fully ensure that the surface of the inner skeleton formed by fine processing, i.e., the winding groove 10, which serves as the basis for winding the coil, has higher dimensional accuracy, thereby obtaining a superconducting coil with higher dimensional accuracy, thereby ensuring that the magnetic field non-uniformity is as close to the calculated value as possible.
[0078] The flange plate (end flange 11 and spacer flange), i.e., the side walls and end faces of the winding groove 10, also feature mounting recesses for the quench-trigger heater assembly, namely, heater mounting recesses 16. These recesses are located at different angles from the coil lead-out recess 15, allowing the lead-out point of the wire to be offset from the installation location of the quench-trigger heater assembly. In this embodiment of the present invention, two sets of heater mounting recesses 16 are provided along the entire perimeter of the flange plate, each set containing two heater mounting recesses 16, for mounting the quench-trigger heater assembly and serving as backup mounting recesses. These recesses 16 form recesses 161 within the flange plate's vertical surface, while recesses 162 are formed on the flange plate's outer surface.
[0079] A fixing through hole 17 for mounting the supporting structure is provided on the end flange 11, and preferably one of the spacer flanges (shown in the figure as the first spacer flange 12 adjacent to the end flange 11); the fixing through hole 17 passes through the radial direction of the flange plate, extending from the outer surface to the inner tube wall of the multi-coil integral inner skeleton 1; in particular, the fixing through hole 17 is provided with a countersunk hole 171 on the inner tube wall of the multi-coil integral inner skeleton 1.
[0080] The spacing flange of the multi-coil integral endoskeleton 1 also features mounting screw holes 18 for attaching components such as the terminal block and lower support plate to the endoskeleton. Unlike the through-holes 17 at each end, which penetrate both ends, these mounting screw holes 18 are blind holes located only on the outer surface of the spacing flange and do not penetrate the inner wall of the multi-coil integral endoskeleton 1.
[0081] The outer surface of the multi-coil integral inner frame 1 is machined to form several mounting surfaces 19. Specifically, four evenly spaced mounting surfaces are provided as support structure mounting surfaces 191 for mounting support structure components. Furthermore, depending on design requirements, a terminal block mounting surface 192 may be provided for mounting a terminal block for connecting the coil wire ends and taps, and a quench protection diode assembly mounting surface 193 may be provided for mounting a quench protection diode assembly for connecting the quench-triggered heater assembly. Specifically, eight areas are evenly spaced along the outer surface of the multi-coil integral inner frame 1. Four evenly spaced areas are provided as symmetrical support structure mounting surfaces 191. Of the remaining four evenly spaced areas, two opposing areas are provided for accommodating heater mounting slots 16, and the remaining two opposing areas are provided for accommodating terminal block mounting surfaces 192 and quench protection diode assembly mounting surfaces 193, respectively.
[0082] The multi-coil integral inner frame 1 of the present invention preferably also includes an insulating layer on its outer surface, preferably sprayed with insulating varnish with a thickness of 50 to 100 μm, to provide basic ground insulation for the superconducting coils and protective circuitry. The insulating layer should be positioned away from the mounting plane 19 to prevent degradation of thermal conductivity at the interface between the terminal block or support plate and the inner frame.
[0083] The multi-coil integral inner frame 1 of the present invention is integrally forged, then machined into a specific structure, and finally sprayed with insulating paint to be used as a finished product.
[0084] When the multi-coil integral inner frame 1 of the present invention is used, it is first set up on a winding machine, and according to the settings, a wire is wound in each winding slot 10 to form a superconducting coil 2. Figure 5 As shown; the outer surface of the wound superconducting coil 2 is substantially flush with the bottom of the embedding groove 161, and then the outer surface of the superconducting coil 2 is provided with a coil outer layer insulation 21. Then, a quench trigger heater assembly is installed against the outer surface of the coil outer layer insulation 21, and the quench heater assembly includes a quench heater 3 as shown Figure 4As shown, the entire structure is made of a U-shaped stainless steel sheet with a thickness of 0.3 mm to 0.6 mm. When energized, it can generate heat to heat the superconducting coil and accelerate the quenching of the coil. The bottom plate 31 of the quench heater 3 is arc-shaped and fits the cylindrical outer surface of the coil outer insulation 21. The vertical plates 32 on both sides of the quench heater 3 are embedded in the heater mounting groove 16, close to the vertical surface of the embedding groove 161. The upper parts of the vertical plates 32 on both sides of the quench heater 3 protrude into the said recess 162. The upper inner sides of the vertical plates 32 on both sides of the quench heater 3 are provided with a wiring copper busbar 33, which is preferably fixed to the inner side of the vertical plate 32 by brazing. The vertical plates 32 and the wiring copper busbar 33 are provided with connection holes 34 for electrical connection. The connection holes 34 are located in the recess 162, thereby reducing the overall external dimensions. A plurality of insulators 35 are also provided on the outer side of the quench heater 3 for insulating the quench heater 3 from the ground. After the quench trigger heater assembly is in place, the structural reinforcement layer 4 is wound in the "U"-shaped groove of the quench heater 3. At this point, the winding process is completed, the assembly can be removed, and the external structure can be installed to further form the superconducting magnet assembly.
[0085] like Figure 6 、 Figure 7 As shown, relevant support plates are installed on the installation plane 19. The relevant support plates include four cold end support bases 5, one wiring board 6, and one lower support plate 7:
[0086] (1) Install the cold end support seat 5 on the four support structure installation planes 191.
[0087] The main body of the cold end support base 5 is a flat plate. The material used for the main plate of the cold end support base 5 is the same as the primary metal used for the coil integral inner frame 1, but it uses a hard alloy of the corresponding metal. That is, when the coil integral inner frame 1 is made of copper or brass, the main plate of the cold end support base 5 is made of hard brass. When the coil integral inner frame 1 is made of aluminum-magnesium alloy, the main plate of the cold end support base 5 is made of hard aluminum alloy. The use of hard alloy for the main plate of the cold end support base 5 provides greater structural strength; however, at the same time, the same primary metal as the coil integral inner frame 1 ensures that the cold shrinkage of the two is as consistent as possible.
[0088] Both ends of the main plate of the cold end support seat 5 are respectively provided with lifting ears 51, and a lifting hole 52 is provided in the lifting ear 51; by inserting a lifting rod into the lifting hole 52 of the lifting ear 51, a total of 8 lifting rods are arranged along the axis in four directions of the circumference of the multi-coil integral inner skeleton 1, so as to suspend, support and fix the multi-coil integral inner skeleton 1 and its superconducting coils and other components thereon.
[0089] The cold end support base 5 is provided with a plurality of fixing holes 53 on its plate, corresponding to the fixing through-holes 17. Specifically, four fixing holes 53 are provided at each end of the cold end support base 5, surrounding the lifting lugs 51 and providing sufficient structural support. During installation, a stainless steel screw is inserted from the inside into the fixing through-holes 17, the screw head sinking into the countersunk hole 171, and the screw shaft extending through the fixing holes 53. The screw is then secured with a gasket and nut. Alternatively, a stainless steel screw can be inserted from the cold end support base 5 into the multi-coil integral inner frame 1, and the nut installed in the countersunk hole 171. However, in this case, the length of the stainless steel screw must be carefully calculated, and the depth of the countersunk hole 171 must be appropriately deepened to ensure that both the screw head and the nut are fully within the countersunk hole 171 and do not protrude from the inner cylindrical area of the multi-coil integral inner frame 1. The threaded connection of the stainless steel screw and stainless steel nut provides significantly greater structural strength than that achieved with high thermal conductivity materials such as copper and aluminum, thereby enhancing the suspension support and fixing strength of the entire superconducting magnet assembly.
[0090] The cold-end support base 5 is provided with a plurality of connecting mounting holes 54, which correspond to mounting screw holes 18 on the exterior of the multi-coil integral endoskeleton 1. These holes are connected by screws, thereby increasing the contact surface between the cold-end support base 5 and the exterior surface of the multi-coil integral endoskeleton 1 and improving the efficiency of cooling transfer. Specifically, each flange plate is provided with fixing holes 17 or mounting screw holes 18, which connect to the cold-end support base 5. While providing structural strength, the cold-end support base 5 also conducts heat and cooling from the exterior of the multi-coil integral endoskeleton 1, enhancing heat and cooling transfer between the flange plates.
[0091] Furthermore, a high thermal conductivity soft metal foil, such as pure indium, high indium alloy, etc., is provided between the cold end support base 5 and the multi-coil integral inner skeleton 1 to enhance heat conduction / cold conduction.
[0092] (2) Install the terminal block 6 on the terminal block installation plane 192.
[0093] The terminal block 6 is preferably made of pure aluminum or pure copper, and the main metal composition is the same as the metal composition of the multi-coil integral inner skeleton 1; the terminal block 6 is also provided with insulating terminals, etc., for connecting the lead-out wire ends or taps of the superconducting coils.
[0094] At the same time, the terminal board 6 is also provided with a mounting portion for installing a high thermal conductivity connector, which is ultimately connected to the cold head of the refrigerator, that is, it is used as a low thermal resistance heat conduction channel between the cold mass and the cold head of the refrigerator; therefore, the terminal board 6 is provided with a mounting hole, which is connected to each flange plate to achieve cooling.
[0095] The high thermal conductivity soft metal foil is also provided between the terminal block 6 and the multi-coil integral inner frame 1 .
[0096] (3) Install the lower support plate 7 on the quench protection diode assembly mounting plane 193.
[0097] The lower support plate is made of pure aluminum or pure copper, and the main metal composition is the same as the metal composition of the multi-coil integral inner skeleton 1; the lower support plate is used to fix the quench protection diode assembly; at the same time, the lower support plate is connected to each flange plate to further enhance the heat conduction between the flanges.
[0098] The high thermal conductivity soft metal foil is also provided between the lower support plate 7 and the multi-coil integral inner frame 1.
[0099] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been specifically described above, but the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments. Those skilled in the art may make various equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. These equivalent modifications or substitutions are all included in the scope defined by the claims of this application.
