Optionally, the support member 700 is in sealing engagement with the housing assembly 100.
It should be noted that the specific implementation manner of the supporting member 700 can be various, including but not limited to pins, supporting rods, and supporting seats, etc.
In addition to any of the above embodiments, as shown in fig. 6, in some embodiments, the magnetic resonance apparatus 10 further includes a second connection 190, and the gradient coil 300 is fixedly connected to the magnet assembly 400 through the second connection 190. In this way, the gradient coil 300 can be securely fixed to the magnet member 400 by the second connecting member 190, and the magnet member 400 can support the gradient coil 300, thereby reducing the contact area between the gradient coil 300 and the magnet member 400 and further reducing the transmission of vibration to the magnet member 400.

On the basis of any of the above embodiments, as shown in fig. 6, in some embodiments, the magnetic resonance apparatus 10 further includes an electrical connector 101 and a damping pad 102, the electrical connector 101 is fixedly mounted on the housing assembly 100 through the damping pad 102, one end of the electrical connector 101 is electrically connected to the gradient coil 300, and the other end of the electrical connector 101 forms an electrical connection portion outside the housing assembly 100. In this manner, vibration energy generated when the gradient coil 300 operates can be absorbed by the vibration-damping pad 102 being engaged with the electrical connector 101, so that vibration of the housing assembly 100 can be reduced. Meanwhile, elements such as a gradient power amplifier may be disposed outside the housing assembly 100 using the electrical connector 101, and connected to the gradient coil 300 using the electrical connector 101.
The electrical connector 101 may be implemented in various ways, and may be electrically connected to the gradient coil 300 by a component such as a gradient power amplifier. The electrical connector 101 includes but is not limited to electrical connectors such as electrical plugs, Type-A connectors, Type-B connectors, Type-C connectors, Lightning connectors, and the like; or the Type-A interface, the Type-B interface, the Type-C interface, the Lightning interface and the like; or a cable such as a coaxial cable.
In addition to any of the above embodiments, in some embodiments, the magnetic resonance apparatus 10 further includes a helium gas tube assembly (not shown) disposed at least partially outside the radio frequency shielded space 21. Thus, the helium pipe assembly is arranged outside the radio frequency shielding space 21, so that the maintenance is convenient, and the occupation of the radio frequency shielding space 21 is reduced. In addition, helium gas leakage in the radio frequency shielding space 21 can be avoided, and safety is improved. When the superconducting magnet 400 is used in the magnetic resonance apparatus 10, the cooling effect can be improved by cooling with helium gas.
On the basis of any of the above embodiments, in some embodiments, the magnetic resonance apparatus 10 further includes an apparatus component (not shown) which generates heat below a preset value or does not generate heat, and the apparatus component is at least partially disposed outside the radio frequency shielding space 21. Therefore, the device components with heating values lower than the preset value or without heating are arranged outside the radio frequency shielding space 21, so that the maintenance is facilitated, and the occupation of the radio frequency shielding space 21 is reduced.
The equipment components include, but are not limited to, cryogenic components, coolant or coolant gas supply components, and the like.
In addition to any of the above embodiments, in some embodiments, the magnetic resonance system further includes an active noise reduction component (not shown), which is disposed in the radio frequency shielded space 21. Therefore, the active noise reduction part can further reduce the noise in the radio frequency shielding space 21, provides stronger comfortable feeling and relaxing feeling for the inspected person, and improves the detection experience.
It should be noted that various embodiments of the active noise reduction features are possible. For example, a sound receiving device (microphone, etc.) is disposed at a noise source of the magnetic resonance apparatus 10, and a sound generating device (speaker, etc.) is disposed in the radio frequency shielding space 21, and the sound generating device can generate corresponding audio frequency according to the noise frequency to realize active noise reduction.
In addition to any of the above embodiments, in some embodiments, the magnetic resonance system further comprises a light emitting element (not shown) disposed in the radio frequency shielding space 21. Therefore, a comfortable light environment is created by utilizing the luminescence of the luminous piece, a stronger comfortable feeling and a relaxing feeling are provided for a person to be inspected, and the detection experience is improved.
