It is difficult to further expand the scope of application of existing equipment.

[0004] In addition, with the development of biotechnology and medical technology, the application of microfluidic chips is becoming more and more extensive. Microfluidic chips are miniaturized reaction devices that integrate basic operation units such as sample preparation, reaction, separation, and detection in biological, chemical, and medical analysis processes onto a micrometer-scale chip to automatically complete the entire analysis process. Miniaturized reaction devices have various shapes, such as planar structure chips, such as circular, fan-shaped, rectangular, square, etc., and special-shaped chips, such as cylindrical, conical, etc. Based on the needs of biological reactions, they need to be warmed and incubated at a certain temperature, and even require variable temperature reactions with rapid temperature changes.
