2. Description of the Related Art Recently, applications of superconducting coil devices are rapidly spreading in various fields such as nuclear fusion devices, accelerators, and superconducting energy storage devices. The superconducting coil normally has an electric resistance of zero in the superconducting state, but may change from the superconducting state to the normal conducting state due to a sudden change in the magnetic field or an abnormal temperature. The phenomenon in which the superconducting state is destroyed is called quenching. When this quenching occurs, however, there is a risk that the pressure will increase due to abnormal evaporation of liquid helium or the like.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, in the superconducting coil 2 supplied with electric power from the AC / DC converter 6 as the excitation power source, the protective resistor 3 is connected in parallel with the superconducting coil 2 to cause quench. In this case, a method is adopted in which the energy stored in the superconducting coil 2 is consumed by the protective resistor 3 and the expansion of the quench is suppressed to protect the superconducting coil 2. That is, when a quench occurs, the superconducting coil current flowing in the loop circuit composed of the AC / DC converter 6 and the superconducting coil 2 is shifted to the protective resistor 3, but at this time, a DC interruption is performed to interrupt a large DC current. Device 4
Is required. Particularly in recent years, the size of the superconducting coil device has been increasing, and the current flowing through the superconducting coil 2 has tended to increase, and the number of superconducting coil devices aiming for continuous operation is increasing. On the other hand, if a quench etc. occurs in the super electric coil,
Since a high voltage is generated, the above DC interrupting device 4 used for quench protection must be a high voltage interrupting device capable of interrupting a large DC current and capable of continuous operation.

However, in general, a high voltage type DC interrupting device can handle only a small current, while a DC interrupting device capable of handling a large current is a low voltage type. Therefore, one DC breaker cannot withstand continuous high-current energization, and a plurality of high-voltage DC breakers 4A to 4N are connected in parallel as shown in FIG. A conventional device of this type is disclosed in, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 57-198613.

Therefore, a DC cutoff method as shown in FIG. 6 has been proposed recently. That is, the DC circuit breaker 4 is connected in parallel with the series circuit of the small resistor 10 and the switch device 11, and when the superconducting coil 2 is excited by the AC / DC converter 6, the DC circuit breaker 4 is in the open state. Switchgear 11
Is closed, and when the superconducting coil current is interrupted by the occurrence of quench in this condition, the DC interrupting device 4
Is closed first, and the series circuit of the small resistor 10 and the switchgear 11 is short-circuited so that the superconducting coil current is almost completely cut off by the DC breaker 4.
After that, the switchgear 11 is opened, and finally the DC interrupter 4 is opened so that a large DC current can be interrupted. As a known example of this type, there is JP-A-1-40409.

In addition, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 58-95803 discloses a device in which a series circuit of a switch and a capacitor is connected in parallel with a superconducting coil or a protective resistor. However, this switch is turned on at the time of quench to connect the capacitor in parallel with the protection resistor so that the surge voltage that is generated due to the inductance of the protection resistor is absorbed by the capacitor and the excitation power supply is short-circuited. However, it does not fulfill the function of shifting the superconducting coil current to the series circuit of the switch and the capacitor to interrupt it.

As described above, according to the present invention, the first switchgear has the continuous energizing function, and the DC interrupting device has the superconducting coil current interrupting function when an abnormality such as a quench occurs. Therefore, it is only necessary to use the DC breaker with a short-time rating, so that the DC cutoff of a large current can be reliably performed, and the superconducting coil current can be shifted to the protection resistor to protect the superconducting coil. Moreover, since the voltage drop of the excitation power supply was used to shift the superconducting coil current to the DC interrupting device due to the closed circuit of the DC interrupting device, it is not necessary to use a minute resistor as in the conventional case. The jule loss that is always generated by this minute resistor is eliminated, and the efficiency of the entire device can be improved.
