Magnetic Flux Bending Devices

View page
US Patent:
57986797, Aug 25, 1998
Filed:
Jun 7, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/484057
Inventors:
Sergio Pissanetzky - The Woodlands TX
Assignee:
Houston Advanced Research Center - The Woodlands TX
International Classification:
H01F 500
US Classification:
335299
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for bending magnetic flux in a magnetic circuit are disclosed. A means for conducting a substantially planar electric current is placed in the path of the flux of a magnetic circuit. Current is then caused to flow in the conducting means, causing the magnetic flux in the magnetic circuit to deviate from its original path. A preferred embodiment of the invention is described wherein a series of coils are used to form both the planar conducting means and a partial flux conduit for coupling the flux bending apparatus to the magnetic circuit. Specific applications of the invention are disclosed in relation to magnets for use in magnetic resonance imaging applications, and magnets for use in dual dipole particle accelerator applications. Additional applications of the invention are described in relation to creating modular components for magnetic flux piping systems, such components including devices for splitting and recombining magnetic flux, concentrating and expanding magnetic flux, and switching magnetic flux to two or more different paths. Also disclosed are applications of the invention to create magnetic circuits wherein the flux pipes have a size on the order of microns.

Structured Coil Electromagnets For Magnetic Resonance Imaging And Method For Fabricating The Same

View page
US Patent:
53829042, Jan 17, 1995
Filed:
Aug 6, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/926667
Inventors:
Sergio Pissanetzky - The Woodlands TX
Assignee:
Houston Advanced Research Center - The Woodlands TX
International Classification:
G01V 300
US Classification:
324319
Abstract:
Superconducting electromagnets suitable for use in the NMR tomography of human organs, and a method of making the same, are disclosed. Each of the disclosed electromagnets are constructed according to a structured coils methodology, where the desired field at locations within the volume of interest and, optionally, outside of the location of the coils is selected; the current magnitude and polarity for a plurality of coil elements locations are then optimized, by way of a computer program, to provide the desired field magnitude at the locations. The magnet construction results in a plurality of coils of varying current polarity, and of irregular shape and size, optimized to provide the uniform field. Magnets may be constructed according to the present invention which provide suitably highly uniform and high magnitude DC magnetic fields at volumes of interest which may be within or outside of the magnet bore, enabling the MRI of human organs without requiring whole body insertion of the patient into the magnet bore.

Compact Superconducting Magnet For Magnetic Resonance Imaging

View page
US Patent:
53152760, May 24, 1994
Filed:
Jan 29, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/827378
Inventors:
F. Russell Huson - The Woodlands TX
Sergio Pissanetzky - The Woodlands TX
John D. Larson - Palo Alto CA
Assignee:
Hewlett Packard Company - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
H01F 722
US Classification:
335216
Abstract:
A C-shaped superconducting magnet for use in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) equipment is disclosed. The magnet includes flux concentrators on opposing sides of the gap, for generating a vertical field therein; the flux concentrators include a plurality of coils, for carrying current in opposing directions, so as to generate an inwardly directed field to compensate for the gap. Injection correctors, each consisting of a horizontal coil, are disposed adjacent the flux concentrators. A flux return body, for example a superconducting solenoid or an iron yoke, provides a return path on the opposite side of the magnet from the gap. Flux deflectors guide return flux in a curved path from the flux return body to the injection correctors. The flux deflectors are constructed to include a superconducting coil which is wound about varying chords (or the full diameter) thereof, so that the induced flux is greater nearer the outside of the flux deflector, compensating for the tendency of the flux to crowd along the inner portion of the curved path. The return flux is thus provided to the injection correctors with sufficient uniformity to be corrected thereby.

Compact, Open Geometry U-Shaped Magnet For Magnetic Resonance Imaging

View page
US Patent:
55920900, Jan 7, 1997
Filed:
Dec 12, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/354282
Inventors:
Sergio Pissanetzky - The Woodlands TX
Assignee:
Houston Advanced Research Center - The Woodlands TX
International Classification:
G01V 300
US Classification:
324319
Abstract:
A compact, open geometry U-shaped magnet formed by parallel iron slabs and a flux return is activated by a coil which surrounds the flux return. The inner surfaces of the iron slabs and an outer surface of the coil are substantially contiguous. The field homogeneity within the compact, open geometry U-shaped magnet is improved by controlling the reluctance of a secondary flux flow circuit extending away from the pair of parallel iron slabs. The geometry of the compact, open geometry U-shaped magnet also provides for utilization of an automatic active shimming system.

Ultrashort Cylindrical Shielded Electromagnet For Magnetic Resonance Imaging

View page
US Patent:
53593103, Oct 25, 1994
Filed:
Apr 15, 1992
Appl. No.:
7/869544
Inventors:
Sergio Pissanetzky - The Woodlands TX
Assignee:
Houston Advanced Research Center - The Woodlands TX
International Classification:
G01V 300
H01F 722
H01F 300
US Classification:
335301
Abstract:
A superconducting magnet suitable for use in magnetic resonance imaging applications is disclosed. A plurality of driving coils are located around a cylindrical bore, for generating an axial magnetic field therein. At the ends of the magnet, within the same cryostat as the driving coils, first and second shielding coils are located, each carrying a current of opposite polarity relative to the driving coils. The location, size, and current in the coils are determined by a methodology in which the error between the desired field and the simulated field is minimized at target locations within the bore and outside of the bore. A flux return is disposed in the gap between the first and second shielding coils, so that the shielding coils inject return magnetic flux into the flux return. The flux return may be of iron, or may consist of a superconducting coil. The resulting magnet has relatively low superconductor cost as well as relatively low weight, due to the efficient use of both superconductor and iron.
