<p>A refrigerated superconductive magnet is provided with six magnet cartridge radial struts supporting the magnet cartridge in the vertical (47,49) and lateral (51,52,53,54) directions. The struts are positioned such that two lateral struts (e.g. 51,52) on each end of the magnet cartridge react against the contact force of the cryocooler cold head and support half of the vertical (gravitational) load of the magnet cartridge (17). Two vertical struts (47,49) support the other half of the vertical load. The vertical struts pivot to allow the cartridge axial centerline to shrink towards the cryocooler (31) interface during cool down. The strut attachment points have been located near the horizontal midplane in order to minimize the sag of the magnet cartridge due to its own weight. <IMAGE></p> |
