Its probe coil is generally a single coil, located at the center of a uniform magnetic field, generally wound on the outer surface of a waveguide tube, and the functions of exciting nuclear spins and detecting nuclear precession of the coil are switched through a transmit / receive switch. The coil is both the terminal of a radio frequency signal transmitter and the signal detection starting point of a receiver. Therefore, the sensitivity of the probe determines the accuracy of the entire instrument.

One end of the heat dissipation copper tube 2 is the water inlet end, and the other end is the water outlet end. The circulating water enters from the water inlet end and is discharged from the water outlet end. And the heat dissipation copper tube 2 realizes constant temperature through the circulating water inside it, which is convenient to make the circulating flowing water realize constant temperature and improve the constant temperature effect of the constant temperature mechanism;
[0032] The probe structure includes a closed outer tube 3, a waveguide tube 4, a closed cover plate 5, an air outlet duct 6 and a radio frequency coil 10;
[0033] A closed outer tube 3 is arranged in the middle of the inner side of the iron yoke 1. A waveguide tube 4 is sleeved inside the closed outer tube 3. And one end of the closed outer tube 3 and the waveguide tube 4 is connected with a closed cover plate 5. A closed space is formed by enclosing the closed outer tube 3, the waveguide tube 4 and the closed cover plate 5. Heat insulation cotton is pasted on the outside of the closed outer tube 3, which is convenient for the arrangement of the internal components of the probe. At the same time, it avoids heat directly entering the inside of the probe structure from the closed outer tube 3. The closed cover plate 5 seals the gap between the closed outer tube 3 and the waveguide tube 4 to maintain the tightness of the internal structure of the sleeve head and improve the effect during temperature control. A temperature sensor 9 is installed on one side inside the closed outer tube 3. The temperature sensor 9 inside the closed outer tube 3 is used to receive the experimental temperature, which is convenient for quickly obtaining the temperature information inside the probe structure. A spiral radio frequency coil 10 is sleeved outside the waveguide tube 4;
[0034] An air outlet duct 6 is embedded and connected inside the closed cover plate 5. An air inlet duct 7 penetrates and connects at the side of the closed cover plate 5 where the air outlet duct 6 is located. And an electronic circuit access hole 8 is penetrated and opened inside the closed cover plate 5. The air outlet end of the air inlet duct 7 extends to the inside of the closed outer tube 3. The electronic circuit access hole 8 is used for the wire connection of the electronic circuit, which is convenient for quickly transporting the gas transported by the air inlet duct 7 to the inside of the closed outer tube 3 and at the same time convenient for the connection of the electronic circuit.
[0035] The variable temperature mechanism mainly consists of a PID temperature controller, a semiconductor refrigeration sheet, a semiconductor heat dissipation copper tube, a plastic hose, a rotary vacuum pump and a commutator;
[0036] The PID temperature controller adjusts the magnitude of the current of the semiconductor refrigeration sheet through program control means. The commutator controls the direction of the current passing through the semiconductor refrigeration sheet, so as to perform refrigeration and heating;
[0037] The plastic hose is used for conducting and transporting nitrogen gas after temperature reduction and after temperature increase. The rotary vacuum pump is used for performing air exchange and circulation treatment on the temperature-controlled air flow, so as to transport the temperature-variable nitrogen gas into the space of the probe structure.
[0038] The working principle and usage process of the present utility model: In the actual application process of the nuclear magnetic resonance semiconductor temperature-variable device, first, a heat dissipation copper tube 2 is wound around the outer side of the yoke 1, and the constant temperature is achieved by using the water circulation input in the heat dissipation copper tube 2 to ensure the constancy of the temperature outside the probe structure;
[0039] Secondly, in the process of temperature-variable control, the experimental temperature is set through the PID temperature controller, and the temperature inside the probe structure is sensed by the temperature sensor 9 inside the probe structure, so as to react to the temperature information in a timely manner. When controlling the temperature, the PID temperature controller controls the current direction of the semiconductor refrigeration sheet by means of program control of the commutator, so as to heat and cool the nitrogen gas;
[0040] After the nitrogen gas is heated or cooled by the semiconductor refrigeration sheet, the plastic hose and the rotary vacuum pump are used to transport the processed nitrogen gas. The plastic hose is connected to the intake duct 7 inside the probe structure, and the nitrogen gas for temperature control is transported into the probe structure through the plastic hose and the intake duct 7;
[0041] And after the action of the nitrogen gas ends, it is discharged from the probe structure through the outlet duct 6, which is convenient for inputting and outputting the nitrogen gas for temperature control. The temperature inside the probe structure is regulated by using the nitrogen gas, so as to realize the control loop of the coil temperature, accurately adjust the temperature inside the probe structure, so that the probe can not only perform experiments at room temperature, but also meet a relatively large range of temperature control, improve the sensitivity during the probe detection process, and thus improve the accuracy of the whole instrument.
