[0039] like Figure 1~Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment proposes a glass fermentation tank with a magnetically detachable light source, comprising: a tank body 1 with an inner cavity 101 and an end cover 2 snap-fitted on the tank body 1, the end cover 2 having a feed port 201, and the feed port 201 is connected to the inner cavity 101; a stirring member 3 is rotatably arranged in the inner cavity 101, the axis of the stirring member 3 is parallel to the axis of the inner cavity 101, and the stirring member 3 is used to stir the material in the inner cavity 101; a stirring wheel 4 is rotatably arranged on the stirring member 3, the axis of the stirring wheel 4 is perpendicular to the axis of the stirring member 3, and the stirring wheel 4 is used to roll the material in the inner cavity 101 after rotation.

[0040] In this embodiment, the tank body 1 with the inner cavity 101 is used as a container for the fermentation reaction. The end cover 2 is connected to the tank body 1 by snapping to ensure the sealing during the fermentation reaction. The end cover 2 is provided with a feed port 201 connected to the inner cavity 101 to facilitate the introduction of materials. The stirring member 3 is rotatably arranged in the inner cavity 101, and the axis of the stirring member 3 is horizontal with the axis of the tank body 1 to ensure that the materials in the inner cavity 101 can be stirred evenly during stirring, thereby increasing the reaction rate. The stirring wheel 4 is rotatably arranged on the stirring member 3, and the axis of the stirring wheel 4 is perpendicular to the axis of the tank body 1. The stirring wheel 4 can be magnetically driven, and the external magnetic field is used to penetrate the tank body 1 to drive the stirring wheel 4 to rotate. When the stirring wheel 4 rotates, the materials in the tank body 1 will roll, making the stirring more uniform and thorough.

[0041] Optionally, the stirring member 3 has a plurality of stirring blades 301 distributed in an axial array, and the stirring member 3 has a plurality of stirring wheels 4 , and a plurality of stirring wheels 4 are rotatably arranged between two adjacent stirring blades 301 along the circumference of the stirring member 3 .

[0042] In this embodiment, the stirring member 3 is provided with a plurality of stirring blades 301 distributed in an axial array. This arrangement design is to generate a three-dimensional shear force during stirring, improve the mixing effect, and enable the material to be effectively stirred at every location in the inner cavity 101, thereby promoting uniform contact and reaction of the material. A plurality of stirring wheels 4 are respectively provided between each two adjacent stirring blades 301. Such a layout increases the stirring points, which means that the material is pushed at multiple points in the axial and circumferential directions, tumbling and mixing. This staggered arrangement can penetrate deeper into the material, reduce dead angles, and improve the thoroughness of mixing. Through the staggered distribution of the multi-layer stirring blades 301 and the stirring wheel 4, the stirring force is more uniform and in-depth, and the mixing efficiency is improved, which is particularly beneficial for thick and viscous materials or high-viscosity reactions.

[0043] Optionally, the stirring blade 301 has a scraping end 302 , and the scraping end 302 abuts against the inner wall of the inner cavity 101 .

[0044] In this embodiment, the stirring blade 301 is additionally provided with a scraping end 302. The purpose of this design is to enable the scraping end 302 to fit tightly against the wall of the inner cavity 101 during the stirring process, effectively remove or cause the materials adhering to the wall to separate from the wall of the inner cavity 101, and continue mixing in the inner cavity 101. This solves the problem of material accumulation on the wall in traditional stirring, especially for materials with strong viscosity. The scraping end 302 acts directly on the wall of the inner cavity 101, reducing the retention of materials on the wall, making the material mixing of the entire inner cavity 101 more uniform, and improving the reaction efficiency. This is particularly important for the fermentation process, ensuring that all microorganisms are in uniform contact with nutrients and products, and promoting activity. The design of the scraping end 302 is also conducive to cleaning, reducing the difficulty of cleaning after the fermentation is completed, and the residues on the wall can be effectively removed, which is convenient for subsequent disinfection and preparation for the next round of use, meeting hygiene standards.

[0045] Optionally, the tank body 1 is made of transparent material; it also includes: a plurality of lighting panels 5, which are circumferentially distributed on the outer circumference of the tank body 1; a plurality of lighting bodies 6, and a plurality of lighting bodies 6 are circumferentially distributed on the inner wall of each lighting panel 5.

[0046] In this embodiment, a tank body 1 made of a transparent material is selected to make the fermentation process in the tank visible, so that the progress of the biological reaction and the growth status of the bacteria, such as cell density and precipitation, can be monitored without opening the tank, thereby improving the intuitiveness and safety of the experiment or production. A number of lighting panels 5 are designed to be distributed around the periphery of the tank body 1, and a number of lighting lamp bodies 6 are distributed on the inner wall of each lighting panel 5. This layout ensures that the light evenly covers every corner of the tank cavity 101, providing constant lighting conditions regardless of day or night, which is particularly important for photosynthetic biological fermentation, such as the growth of photosynthetic bacteria and algae, to maintain photosynthetic light requirements. Not only does it increase the intensity and uniformity of the light, but it can also achieve spectrum adjustment, and improve light utilization and photosynthesis efficiency according to the spectral preferences of different organisms for specific wavelengths.

[0047] Optionally, it also includes: there are two rotating disks 7, the two rotating disks 7 are respectively rotatably arranged on the tank body 1, and the two rotating disks 7 are symmetrically arranged up and down along the height direction of the tank body 1, and a plurality of lighting panels 5 are respectively arranged on the two rotating disks 7.

[0048] In this embodiment, two rotating disks 7 are arranged on the tank body 1 and are symmetrically arranged in the vertical direction of the tank body 1. The cleverness of this design lies in that the position of the lighting panel 5 can be dynamically adjusted by rotating the rotating disk 7, thereby changing the projection angle and coverage area of ​​the lighting to meet the lighting requirements of different time periods or fermentation stages.

[0049] Optionally, it also includes: there are two first magnetic rings 8, and the two first magnetic rings 8 are respectively arranged on two rotating disks 7; there are several second magnetic rings 9, and the several second magnetic rings 9 are respectively arranged on several lighting panels 5, and the second magnetic rings 9 are used to be magnetically connected to the first magnetic rings 8.

[0052] Optionally, it also includes: a water bath 10 is arranged at the bottom of the tank body 1, the water bath 10 has a water inlet 1001, a water outlet 1002 and a water return port 1003, the water inlet 1001 is used to connect to an external water source; a transparent bellows 11 is arranged around the outer circumference of the tank body 1, the transparent bellows 11 is located between the tank body 1 and the lighting panel 5, and the two ends of the transparent bellows 11 are respectively connected to the water outlet 1002 and the water return port 1003.

[0053] In this embodiment, the water bath 10 is arranged at the bottom of the tank body 1, with a water inlet 1001, a water outlet 1002 and a water return port 1003, and is connected to an external water source through the water inlet 1001. The addition of the water bath 10 provides a means of temperature control for the fermentation tank. Through water circulation, the water bath can be heated or cooled, the temperature in the tank can be effectively adjusted, and the optimal environment for biological reactions can be maintained. The transparent bellows 11 is wrapped around the outer periphery of the tank body 1, located between the tank body 1 and the lighting panel 5. The transparent material will not affect the lighting and will not block the light source. The two ends of the transparent bellows 11 are respectively connected to the water outlet 1002 and the water return port 1003, forming a water circulation path. The circulation of water in the transparent bellows 11 also helps to regulate the temperature and increase the heat exchange on the surface of the tank body 1.

[0054] Optionally, the transparent corrugated tube 11 is a flexible tube.

[0055] In this embodiment, the flexible transparent bellows 11 can better adapt to changes in the shape of the tank body 1 and the external environment. Even if the temperature changes and causes the tank body 1 to expand and contract, the flexible tube is not easily damaged, thus maintaining the sealing and stability of the system and extending the service life. Compared with the rigid transparent bellows 11, the flexible transparent bellows 11 is easier to bend and position for installation, adapts to complex layouts, reduces physical stress during installation, is easy to adjust the angle and replace, and simplifies the maintenance operation process. The flexible transparent bellows 11 can absorb external vibrations, such as mechanical or environmental vibrations, reduce the impact on sensitive biological reactions in the tank, and protect the stability of the fermentation process, especially in laboratories or production environments that require precise control.

[0056] Optionally, it also includes: a rotating wheel 12 rotatably arranged on the water bath 10, located beside the tank body 1; a synchronous belt 13 is wound around the rotating disk 7 at the bottom of the tank body 1 and the rotating wheel 12; a driving member 14 is arranged on the water bath 10, for driving the rotating wheel 12 to rotate.

[0057] In this embodiment, the driving member 14 can be a driving motor. The rotating wheel 12 is rotatably arranged on the water bath 10, and the synchronous belt 13 is wound between the rotating disk 7 at the bottom of the tank body 1 and the rotating wheel 12. This design forms a link for power transmission. The operator can operate the driving member 14 to rotate the rotating wheel 12, and the synchronous belt 13 transmits power to the rotating disk 7 at the bottom of the tank body 1, so that the rotating disk 7 rotates.
