Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cold heads of magnetic resonance systems, in particular to an independent testing mechanism after a cold core is cleaned. Background Art

[0002] Single-stage refrigeration can achieve temperatures above 10K, such as 77K, which is used to liquefy nitrogen, which also plays an important role in the field of magnetic resonance. Because of its low price, it is often used to pre-cool magnets to save expensive liquid helium;

[0003] However, single-stage refrigeration cannot reduce the temperature below 10K, and two-stage refrigeration is required. The cold head of magnetic resonance is essentially a two-stage expander. The general idea of ​​refrigeration is as follows: the cold head and the helium compressor form a closed circulation system, and the two are connected by two helium tubes. The cold head drives the piston through a motor to expand the high-pressure helium in the cold head to take away the heat of the helium in the magnet (such as a 4K cold head, which turns helium into liquid helium). Then the high-pressure and low-temperature helium is turned into low-pressure and high-temperature helium, which returns to the helium compressor for another cycle.

[0004] However, the mechanical movement and friction of the helium compressor will drop dust, and the dust in the helium is filtered through the first-level cold core. After a long time, the dust accumulates, causing the refrigeration effect to weaken, and the first-level cold core needs to be disassembled for cleaning and inspection. The existing first-level cold core needs to be tested for performance after cleaning. However, the existing performance test work can only reinstall the cleaned or repaired cold core and the cold head, and then put the cold head and the cold core into the cold head test rack for unified testing. The assembly and disassembly process of the cold core and the cold head is relatively cumbersome, which reduces the detection efficiency and affects normal use. In actual implementation, there is no independent cold core test structure, which is extremely inconvenient. For this reason, the utility model proposes a structure that can independently perform performance testing on the cleaned cold core. Utility Model Content

[0022] Among them, the cold core placement tube 1, the air outlet pipe 7, and the air inlet pipe 8 are interconnected in structure design;

[0023] According to the above structure, one end of the air inlet pipe 8 can be connected to an external helium tank, so that helium can be injected through the pump body. When the performance test of the cleaned or repaired cold core needs to be performed, the cold core placement tube 1 can be opened through the tube cover 2, and the cold core to be tested can be placed inside the cold core placement tube 1 (when placed, the air inlet end of the cold core faces the air inlet pipe 8), and then the end of the cold core placement tube 1 is connected and sealed through the tube cover 2 to ensure the internal sealing and improve the quality of subsequent tests;

[0024] During the test, the helium in the external helium tank is delivered to the inside of the air inlet pipe 8 by the external delivery pump, and the helium pressure can be detected by the set pressure gauge 9.

The triangular diversion groove 3 can perform triangular diversion processing when the helium passes through the cylinder cover 2, which facilitates the gas diversion work.

[0028] In this embodiment, in order to improve the structural sealing between the cold core placement tube 1 and the tube cover 2 and avoid helium leakage, an "O"-shaped groove is opened on the inner wall of the cold core placement tube 1 close to the tube cover 2, and an O-shaped sealing ring is installed in the O-shaped groove.

[0030] During the test, the helium in the external helium tank is delivered to the inside of the air inlet pipe 8 by the external delivery pump, and the helium pressure can be detected by the set pressure gauge 9. The helium flowing through the pressure gauge 9 enters the inside of the cold core placement tube 1 through the No. 2 threaded joint 5. The helium is cooled after passing through the cold core, and then reaches the tail of the cold core placement tube 1. At this time, the temperature of the helium after the cold core is cooled can be detected by the set temperature sensor 6;

A flow meter 10 is installed on the outlet pipe 7, and the flow rate of the helium passing through can be detected by the flow meter 10, and finally discharged through the outlet pipe 7;

[0032] In this way, the above detection method is used to perform cyclic detection work at different time points, and the pressure value, temperature value and flow value measured at each time point are recorded, and the values ​​at multiple time points are collected to form a floating curve. The performance of the cold core after cleaning is evaluated according to the floating degree of the curve, so as to effectively complete the independent detection effect of the cold core performance;

[0033] The utility model provides a No. 1 threaded joint 4 and a No. 2 threaded joint 5 on the cylinder cover 2 and the cold core placement cylinder 1 respectively, and the No. 1 threaded joint 4 and the No. 2 threaded joint 5 can be threadedly connected with the air inlet pipe 10 and the air outlet pipe 7 to ensure the normal circulation of helium.
