    摘要: A common heat acceptor is provided between opposed displacers in a Stirling cycle machine. It includes two sets of open channels in separate fluid communications with the expansion spaces of the receptive cyclinders. The channels confine movement of working fluid in separate paths that extend between the expansion space of one cylinder and the compression space of the other. The method for operating the machine involves alternatively directing working fluid from the expansion space of each cylinder in a fluid path leading to the compression space of the other cylinder and from the compression space of each cylinder in a fluid path leading to the expansion space of the other cylinder.

    摘要: A magnetic resonance assembly comprising, a liquid cryogen vessel, a liquid cryogen cooled conducting magnet disposed within the liquid cryogen vessel, a closed vaccum vessel surrounding the liquid cryogen vessel and spaced from the liquid cryogen vessel, a cooling device fixably attached to the vacuum vessel operable for providing cryogenic temperatures to the superconducting magnet, a heat exchanger device in thermal contact with the liquid cryogen vessel operable for heat exchange, and a bus bar in thermal contact with the cooling device and the heat exchanger device. The cooling device may be a pulse tube cryocooler capable of providing temperatures of about 4 K. A thermal bus bar of high purity aluminum or copper is used to connect and provide a spatial separation of a pulse tube cryocooler and a remote recondenser unit, thus reducing the overall height of the magnet assembly.

    摘要: A mechanical stabilizer-tuned damper is attachable to the first upper magnet assembly of a high field open magnet, which magnet includes a first upper magnet assembly, a lower second magnet assembly and at least one non-magnetizable support beam therebetween. The mechanical stabilizer-tuned damper reduces the dynamic response of the magnet. A connecting device is provided which consists of a threaded rod mounted to an attachment bracket through a linear bearing and vibration mount. A series of non-magnetic and extremely low conductivity plates of various weights are attachable to the rod to change the mass and the tuning frequency of the damper. The location and size of the mechanical stabilizer-tuned damper are determined to balance the frequency of the field oscillation and physical room. The direction of orientation depends upon the direction of motion to be dampened or controlled.

    摘要: A secure and stable mounting system for High Field Open (HFO) magnets. A stainless steel mounting plate is secured to the RF screen room floor and the HFO magnet is secured to the mounting plate. Metal angle members are welded around the perimeter edges of the steel plate, and brass wool is inserted between the angle members and the copper sheeting on the floor of the screen room. The invention minimizes magnet motion and thus reduces the risk of image phase ghosting. The invention also provides RF screen room integrity.
