Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of superconducting magnets, in particular to a magnet state monitoring and alarm device for a superconducting magnetic resonance imaging instrument. Background Art

[0002] A superconducting magnet refers to an electromagnet whose coil is made of a type II superconductor with a high transition temperature and a particularly high critical magnetic field at low temperature. Its main characteristics are that there is no electrical loss caused by wire resistance, and no magnetic loss caused by the existence of an iron core. Superconductors have three basic characteristics: zero resistance, Meissner effect, and Josephson effect. Critical temperature, critical magnetic field, and critical current are three important parameters of superconductors. If any of the temperature, magnetic field, and current exceeds the critical value, the superconducting magnet will undergo a phase change and become a normal conductor. This process is called quenching.

[0003] During the operation of a superconducting magnetic resonance imager, it is necessary to monitor the operating state of a superconducting magnet inside the superconducting magnetic resonance imager to prevent the superconducting magnet from being in a quenched state. Based on the prior art, when monitoring the operating state of the superconducting magnet, it is impossible to monitor various positions of the superconducting magnetic resonance imager in real time, and it is impossible to know in time whether the superconducting magnet is in a quenched state, which has low practicality.
