Abstract

The present invention provides a sensor (11) for a radio frequency coil (1), comprising: a frame (2), a mechanical biasing element (3), a mass (4), and a mechanical retaining mechanism (5) for holding the mass (4) in a retaining position, wherein the mechanical biasing element (3) is abutted to the frame (2) and configured to exert a bias force on the mass (4), urging the mass (4) away from its retaining position into a displacement direction, and the mechanical retaining mechanism (5) is configured to hold the mass (4) in the retaining position against the bias force of the mechanical biasing element (3) and to let the mass (4) displace from the retaining position in the displacement direction into a displacement position when an external force with a force component in the displacement direction exceeding a predetermined threshold is exerted on the mass (4) in addition to the bias force of the mechanical biasing element (3). In this way, a possibility for detecting mishandling of a radio frequency coil (1) in a safe an efficient way is provided.
