Fig. 1 is the end view according to the preferred embodiment of a kind of suspender that is used for magnetic resonance system of the present utility model;
Fig. 2 is the longitudinal profile synoptic diagram of the preferred embodiment of a kind of suspender that is used for magnetic resonance system shown in Figure 1;
Fig. 3 is the enlarged drawing of the suspender among Fig. 1 and Fig. 2.
Embodiment
Understand for technical characterictic of the present utility model, purpose and effect being had more clearly, now contrast description of drawings embodiment of the present utility model.Wherein, identical parts adopt identical label.
Referring to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, a kind of vibration absorber that is used for magnetic resonance system that the utility model proposed adopts the form of synoptic diagram to represent, wherein, and Reference numeral 1 expression magnet; Reference numeral 2 expression gradient coils; Reference numeral 3 expression suspenders.Wherein magnet 1 can be any common permanent magnet, often lead or superconducting magnet.Magnet 1 is tubular structure, and its inner concentric is being arranged the gradient coil 2 of tubular.
As depicted in figs. 1 and 2, gradient coil 2 is installed together by a plurality of suspenders 3 that are arranged in gradient coil 2 and magnet 1 two ends with magnet 1, makes gradient coil 2 and magnet 1 predetermined gap at interval.As seen from the figure, gradient coil 2 only links to each other with magnet 1 by described suspender 3, between the two without any other contact, thereby gradient coil 2 is kept apart with magnet 1 as far as possible, reduced because of the vibration of gradient coil 2 influence total system.For example, when vibrating under the effect of gradient coil 2 in alternating magnetic fields, gradient coil 2 can not contact with magnet 1, thereby has reduced the possibility that produces noise between the two because of friction, collision.
In the utility model, the suspender 3 that is arranged in gradient coil 2 and magnet 1 two ends can be every end more than 3, and in the accompanying drawing of present embodiment, gradient coil 2 and magnet 1 two ends respectively are furnished with 4 suspenders 3.
From the accompanying drawing 2 of present embodiment as seen, the longitudinal length of gradient coil 2 is shorter than the length of magnet 1, therefore corresponding to each suspender 3, can also on gradient coil 2, be provided with and suspender 3 the same number of web joints 5, be used for gradient coil 2 and suspender 3 being linked together by described web joint 5.Certainly, if in installation process, the equal in length of the length of gradient coil 2 and magnet 1 then need not to use web joint 5; If perhaps gradient coil 2 one ends and magnet 1 corresponding are held level with both hands together, the longitudinal length of the other end of gradient coil 2 is shorter than the length of magnet 1 a corresponding end, then only need web joint 5 to be set, be used for gradient coil 2 and suspender 3 being linked together by described web joint 5 at the short end of this gradient coil 2.
