1. A suspension apparatus for a superconducting magnet, comprising:
a support tray comprising two through holes and two mounting parts; and
two suspension assemblies passing through the support tray via a respective one of the two through holes, each one of the two suspension assemblies being connected to a respective one of the at least two mounting parts,
wherein the support tray comprises a joined-ring body composed of two ring shapes, the support tray comprising two annular parts corresponding to the two ring shapes, with each one of the two through-holes being provided at a center of each respective ring shape of the two annular parts,
wherein each one of the two mounting parts is disposed on a respective one of the two annular parts, and
wherein each one of the two suspension assemblies passes through a respective one of the two annular parts via a respective one of the two through-holes.
