ABSTRACT:
Cryogenic thermal switch (10) comprises base (30) which is clamped onto the flange of cold cylinder (24). Heat transfer ring (14) is positioned spaced between thermal clamp surfaces (36, 48) by means of support isolators (90,92,94). Springs (64) urge the clamp surfaces to clamp on ring (14) while metal tubes (70, 72, 74, 76) hold the clamp surfaces in a spaced position while at warm temperature. When the structure is cold, the metal tubes shrink and the springs (64) cause the surfaces to clamp on ring (14) for thermal conduction.
