The position of the magnetic insert is adjustable along the axial direction of the connection piece on at least an inner surface or outer surface of the connection piece.
Claims23
An apparatus, comprising:
- a connection piece for a tubular target, said connection piece including a cylindrical inner face and a cylindrical outer face;
- at least one magnetic insert disposed on at least one of said inner face or said outer face;
- said at least one magnetic insert being moveably disposed on said connection piece such that a position of said at least one magnetic insert is alterable along an axial direction of said connection piece on at least said inner face or said outer face;
- and
- said at least one magnetic insert connected in a manner selected from the group consisting of:
- said at least one magnetic insert connected to said inner face to enable an alteration of the position of said at least one magnetic insert along the axial direction of the connection piece by displacing said at least one magnetic insert in the axial direction,
- said at least one magnetic insert connected to said outer face, and
- said at least one magnetic insert connected to said connection piece by a screw joint such that the position of said at least one magnetic insert is alterable along the axial direction of the connection piece on at least said inner face or said outer face;
- wherein said at least one magnetic insert is connected to said connection piece such that the position of said at least one magnetic insert is alterable along the axial direction of said connection piece on at least said inner face or said outer face without removing said connection piece from a target body of the tubular target.
