摘要:
The present invention provides for a cooling system for circulating a coolant to cool the patient bore. In one embodiment, that patient bore consists of two concentric cylinders separated by spacers running either longitudinally or helically. In another embodiment of the present invention, fluid may be passed either helically or longitudinally through tubes bonded to the outer diameter of the patient bore such that the parts of the bore that are exposed to the patient are directly cooled. In a third embodiment, the RF coil could form part of the patient bore, with the helical or longitudinal fluid channels surrounding the patient bore.

A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) device includes an inner gradient coil assembly proximate a patient positioning area, an outer gradient coil assembly proximate a magnet assembly, and a damping layer sandwiched between the inner and outer gradient coil assemblies.
摘要:
MRI operates by passing current through gradient coils to create a magnetic field. Creation of the magnetic field requires a relatively high current which causes a large heat build up within the MRI, especially in the patient space. The present invention provides for a hollow conductor through which a coolant can be passed directly during the application of current.

A device for use on palletized loads of containers for maintaining tension in vertical strapping comprises a rectangle (20) having outer dimensions commensurate with the dimensions of a pallet or dolly on which. containers are to be stacked in layers, each side of the rectangle comprising upper and lower leaves (21L, 22L) diverging from hinge means at the inner edge of the side, the lower leaves (22L) of all four sides being disposed in a common plane, and spring means (23) urging the outer edges of the upper and lower leaves apart. In one form of the device (20) the sides of a pair of rectangular frames (21, 22) constitute the upper and lower leaves (21L, 22L) and conical coil compression springs (23) are provided between the frames to urge them apart, tethering means (25, 27) adjacent the inner edges of the frames being such as to form the hinge means between the leaves, while tethering means (24, 26) adjacent the outer edges of the frames limit the extent to which the leaves (21L, 22L) are caused to diverge. In other forms the spring means is integral with the hinge means.
摘要:
A super conducting magnet system for magnetic resonance systems comprising at least one radiation shield. Temperature sensors, an external refrigeration system and a controller are provided for maintaining said at least one shield at a constant temperature by heating the shield and reducing the heat provided as the refrigerator system wears or by increasing the frequency of the refrigeration cycle as the system wears or both.
摘要:
A method for lining a pipe such as a sewer pipe by applying to the interior of the pipe a layer of a settable composition including a mixture of one or more organic resins with one or more inorganic filling materials, thereafter covering the surface of the said layer with sheet material and thereafter compacting the said layer onto the pipe by exerting pressure thereon through the sheet material, the sheet material being in the form of a tube of polyethylene film or other polymeric film and in that the tube is removed after the pipe lining composition has at least partly set by pulling one end thereof through the interior length of the lined pipe.
摘要:
A gradient coil and an insert gradient coil for a magnetic resonance imaging system include a primary coil. The primary coil includes an upper primary coil portion and a lower primary coil portion, the lower primary coil portion being less curved in cross-section than the upper primary coil portion. The gradient coil also includes a shielding coil disposed outside of the primary coil. The shielding coil includes an upper shielding coil portion and a lower shielding coil portion, the lower shielding coil portion being less curved in cross-section than the upper shielding coil portion.
