[0002] Acoustic Levitation Cultivation is a technology that uses the physical properties of sound waves to suspend and culture cells or tissues without contact. This technology is mainly based on the sound pressure effect generated when sound waves propagate in the medium. It can allow cells or tissues to suspend freely in three-dimensional space and grow and differentiate without using traditional supports.
[0003] In the related technology, the existing acoustic levitation culture technology forms a stable acoustic potential well (node) in the suspension area through an ultrasonic generator. The suspended sample remains stable in this area and is suitable for the suspension culture of single cells or small-scale tissues. However, the number of suspension points in a single acoustic well is limited, and it is difficult to process multiple samples at the same time.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 , 2 , 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, an improved biochemical incubator, comprising a suspension culture component 3, a position adjustment component 4 and an ultrasonic adjustment component 5,

The culture medium in the spherical culture chamber adopts MS culture medium, and the cultured cell tissue is one of Arabidopsis cells, tobacco cells, and rice cells.
[0034] The position adjustment component 4 is installed on the outside of the spherical culture chamber 301 and is used to adjust the position of the ultrasonic adjustment component 5. The position adjustment component 4 includes an annular mounting frame 401. The annular mounting frame 401 is provided with four groups. The annular mounting frame 401 is perpendicular to the equatorial plane of the spherical culture chamber 301. The ultrasonic adjustment component 5 is movably installed in the annular mounting frame 401. A group of ultrasonic generators 501 are symmetrically arranged at the upper and lower poles of the spherical culture chamber 301. Eight groups of ultrasonic generators 501 are symmetrically arranged at each of the equatorial plane, the 45° north latitude line, and the 45° south latitude line.
[0035] The ultrasonic adjustment component 5 includes an ultrasonic generator 501, which is used to generate ultrasonic waves, form multiple stable acoustic potential wells in the spherical culture chamber 301, and suspend the cell tissue in the acoustic potential wells. The ultrasonic generator 501 is arranged on the inner side of the annular mounting frame 401, and the emission direction of the ultrasonic generator 501 points to the spherical culture chamber 301. Acoustic levitation depends on the standing wave field formed by sound waves at a specific frequency and intensity, in which there are nodes and anti-nodes. The suspended tissue will be maintained at the node because the sound pressure at the node is the lowest and the force is balanced. The formation conditions of the standing wave are determined by factors such as the wavelength and frequency of the sound wave and the distance from the reflecting surface. The position of the suspended object z s Usually located at the nodes of the standing wave field: Among them, λ is the wavelength of the sound wave, n is an integer, representing the nth node. Specifically, the mathematical expression of the standing wave field is:
[0036] P(x,y,z)=P0cos(kx-ωt+φ), where P0 is the sound pressure amplitude, k is the wave number, ω is the angular frequency, and φ is the phase;
[0037] Acoustic potential well: The formation of an acoustic potential well depends on the standing wave field formed by sound waves at a specific frequency and intensity. The mathematical model of an acoustic potential well can be expressed by the potential energy formula:
[0038] Where a is the radius of the suspended particle, ρ0 and ρ are the density of the medium and the particle, respectively, P is the sound pressure, and v is the speed of sound;
[0039] The specific phase value of each ultrasonic generator can be calculated by the following formula:
[0040] Among them, φ i is the phase of the ith ultrasonic generator, d i is the distance from the generator to the target sound trap, and λ is the wavelength of the sound wave.

The inner side of the rotating arc plate 308 is fitted on the side of the spherical culture chamber 301. The upper and lower ends of the rotating arc plate 308 are symmetrically and vertically fixed with a clamping plate 306, and the clamping plate 306 is arranged inside. A ball 307 is installed, and the clamping plate 306 is clamped in the rotating groove 305 of the fixed ring 303. The clamping plate 306 and the rotating arc plate 308 rotate in the fixed ring 303 through the ball 307. The rotating arc plate 308 is integrally formed with a connecting plate 304 at the central position of the side away from the spherical culture chamber 301. The fixed ring 303 cooperates with the rotating arc plate 308 to connect and fix the spherical culture chamber 301. The rotating arc plate 308 and the fixed ring 303 can cooperate with the rotating component 2 to adjust the angle of the annular mounting frame 401 while keeping the spherical culture chamber 301 stable.

The direction adjustment motor 503 is fixedly arranged at the lower end of the connecting seat 504 through a rotating seat, and a transmission shaft 507 is penetrated through the side of one end of the connecting seat 504. The transmission shaft 507 rotates in the inner wall of the connecting seat 504, and one end of the transmission shaft 507 is connected to the output end of the drive motor 505. The side of the transmission shaft 507 is fixed. A driving gear 506 is installed, which is meshed with the inner gear ring 404 inside the annular mounting frame 401. The other side of the connecting seat 504 is connected to the output end of the adjustment motor 508 through a connecting shaft. The connecting seat 504 and the connecting shaft are set to follow. The ultrasonic generator 501 changes the emission angle of the sound wave by adjusting the motor 503. The driving gear 506 is meshed with the inner gear ring 404 inside the annular mounting frame 401, and the position is adjusted on the inner side of the annular mounting frame 401. The driving motor 505 drives the transmission shaft 507 to rotate, which will not affect the state of the connecting seat 504.
[0043] As an optimized technical solution, the annular mounting frame 401 is fixedly connected at the upper and lower ends of the spherical culture chamber 301, and two groups of side through grooves 402 are symmetrically opened on the side of the annular mounting frame 401. An inner through groove 403 is opened on the inner side of the annular mounting frame 401. An inner gear ring 404 is integrally formed on one side of the inner through groove 403 of the annular mounting frame 401.

The adjustment motor 508 is arranged in the through slot 402 on the other side. A limit block and a limit ball are arranged on the side of the adjustment motor 508 in the side through slot 402 to ensure that the adjustment motor 508 can move in the annular mounting frame 401 while the adjustment motor 508 itself does not rotate. When the adjustment motor 508 is working, it drives the connecting shaft to rotate, thereby adjusting the angle of the connecting seat 504 to ensure that the angle of the ultrasonic generator 501 can form a stable acoustic potential well.
[0044] In this embodiment, the incubator further includes a rotating assembly 2 for adjusting the positions of the annular mounting frame 401 and the ultrasonic generator 501. The rotating assembly 2 includes an upper fixed plate 201. A rotating motor 202 is fixedly installed at the central position of the lower end of the upper fixed plate 201. The lower output end of the rotating motor 202 is connected to the upper end pole of the annular mounting frame 401 through a rotating shaft. A plurality of rotating plates 203 are fixedly arranged on the side of the rotating shaft. A connecting rod 204 is vertically fixedly arranged at the lower end of the rotating plate 203 away from the rotating shaft. The lower end of the connecting rod 204 is connected and fixed to the upper end of the annular mounting frame 401 and the upper end of the connecting plate 304. The annular mounting frame 401 The lower end of the lower end pole is vertically rotated through the rotating shaft and is arranged in the rotating sleeve 206.

The lower ends of the connecting rod 204 are respectively connected and fixed to the upper ends of the annular mounting frame 401 and the upper ends of the connecting plate 304, driving the annular mounting frame 401 to rotate, thereby realizing the angle adjustment of the annular mounting frame 401. At the same time, since the connecting plate 304 and the rotating arc plate 308 are integrally formed, the annular mounting frame 401 can be rotated while maintaining the stability of the internal spherical culture chamber 301.
[0045] In this embodiment, the incubator further includes a sound-absorbing isolation component 6, which is used to reduce the influence of external vibration or noise on the spherical culture chamber 301 and maintain the stability of the sound field. The sound-absorbing isolation component 6 is arranged on the outside of the rotating component 2, and the sound-absorbing isolation component 6 includes an isolation box 601. The inner wall of the isolation box 601 is connected and fixed to the upper fixing plate 201 and the lower fixing plate 205.

The lower end buffer column 606 includes a buffer sleeve and a buffer spring. Multiple groups of high-definition cameras 608 are installed on the side wall and the bottom wall of the isolation box 1. The high-definition cameras 608 are used to monitor the actual position of the suspended matter in real time. α and the expected position z s For comparison, if z α Deviation z s , it means that the sound field or external factors affect the suspension state, and the error after calculation is Δz=z α-z s ,The control system determines the direction and amplitude of adjustment according to the error amount. The adjustment methods include position adjustment, angle adjustment and frequency adjustment;
[0046] Position adjustment: The position of the ultrasonic generator 501 is fine-tuned by driving the motor 505, so that the distance of the sound wave reflection surface changes, thereby changing the position of the standing wave node. This adjustment can be expressed as the movement amount of the reflection surface Δd:
[0047]
[0048] Angle adjustment: If the sound field is disturbed asymmetrically, the platform can evenly distribute the sound wave energy by fine-tuning the angle of the ultrasonic generator 501. The angle adjustment amount θ can be calculated by a simple geometric relationship:
[0049] Where L is the length of the sound wave propagation path;
[0050] Frequency adjustment: In some cases, the wavelength λ can be adjusted by fine-tuning the ultrasonic frequency f, thereby changing the position of the standing wave node:
[0051] Where c is the speed of sound;
[0052] Frequency fine-tuning amount Fine tuning of the frequency will cause a change in the wavelength, thus relocating the suspension to the correct node location;
[0053] After performing the adjustment operation, the sensor continues to monitor the position of the suspended object. If the error Δz has been eliminated, the system will maintain the current state; if there is still a deviation, the system will continue to perform the next round of adjustments until the suspended object returns to the expected position.

The spherical culture chamber 301 is correspondingly provided with a temperature control component and a humidity control component commonly used in the field of cell culture technology. Before actual cell culture is carried out, a simulation experiment is required to verify the effect of the phase setting of the acoustic trap and the ultrasonic generator 501. Taking four acoustic traps as an example, the following are the implementation steps:
[0055] 1.1 Initial Setup:
[0056] Starting the ultrasonic generator 501: starting the ultrasonic generator 501 according to a preset phase and frequency to form an initial sound field;
[0057] Sample placement: Lightweight particles (such as polystyrene microspheres) are placed in the suspension area. These particles will serve as markers to verify the formation of acoustic traps in the experiment.
[0058] 1.2 Suspension point position verification:
[0059] Observe the suspension state: use the high-definition camera 608 to observe the suspension state of the particles and confirm whether the particles stay in the expected four acoustic trap positions. If the particles are stably suspended in multiple independent areas, it means that the acoustic trap has been successfully formed;
[0060] 1.3 Phase setting verification:
[0061] Adjust the phase: gradually adjust the phase of the ultrasonic generator 501 in the control system, observe the movement of the particles, confirm the independence and stability of each sound trap by gradually increasing or decreasing the phase difference, and record the changes in the spatial position of the particles under different phase settings.
[0062] 1.4 Interference effect verification:
[0063] Test phase synchronization: Set different phase combinations to observe whether there will be acoustic field interference leading to instability of the acoustic trap. You can deliberately adjust the phase difference to an incorrect value and observe the deviation and instability of the particles to confirm the importance of the correct phase combination.
[0064] 1.5 Dynamic Adjustment Verification:
[0065] Introducing disturbances: artificially introducing slight disturbances (such as slight air flow or vibration) and observing whether the suspension point returns to a stable state under the action of the feedback adjustment system to verify the effect of the dynamic adjustment platform;
