A suspension apparatus for a superconducting magnet, comprising a support tray and at least two suspension assemblies. The support tray has at least one through-hole and comprises at least two mounting parts. The at least two suspension assemblies pass through the support tray via the through-hole. Each of the suspension assemblies is connected to one of the mounting parts. The suspension apparatus is easy to install. Furthermore, a superconducting magnet comprising the suspension apparatus, and a magnetic resonance imaging device, are also provided.

A thermal radiation shield for a superconducting magnet has an inner tube, an outer tube arranged around the periphery of the inner tube, and an annular end cap disposed therebetween, and connected in a fixed manner to an edge of the inner tube by an inner edge of the annular end cap. A first toothed part is formed at an outer edge of the annular end cap, the first toothed part being connected by meshing with a second toothed part formed by an edge of the outer tube. The annular end cap with a toothed structure allows only a simple cutting process on raw material to be performed in order to obtain the annular end cap and the first toothed part formed at the outer edge thereof, thereby avoiding complex punching, spinning and similar processes, and saving production costs.

A supported pot magnet has a magnet coil and a coil former, with the coil former being made of a non-metallic material having a thermal contraction coefficient the same as that of the magnet coil. The supported pot magnet also has a cooling circulator composed of two identical separate components with a semi-cylindrical shape, each having multiple cooling tubes, a refrigerant inlet tube, a refrigerant outlet tube, and multiple clamps. The cooling tubes have a semicircular shape and mate with the slots, and are provided thereon with heat conducting members that are vertically disposed at an inner side of the cooling tubes. The refrigerant inlet tube and outlet tube are vertically mounted at two ends of the cooling tubes, in communication with the cooling tubes. The clamps are disposed on the refrigerant inlet tube and outlet tube.
