[0004] Regarding the above-mentioned related technologies, the sealing gasket on the hot cover is heated during the process of pressing and sealing the sample pool, which can easily cause the sealing gasket to adhere tightly to the sample pool; when the hot cover moves up and away from the sample pool, it can easily drive the sample pool to move up, and then when the hot cover drives the sample pool to move horizontally, the translated sample pool and the reaction module interfere with each other, forcing the sample pool to separate from the sealing gasket, which can easily cause the sample pool to vibrate violently, causing the sample inside the sample pool to splash, causing contamination of the experimental instrument, so it needs to be improved. Summary of the Invention

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, before the hot cover is opened, in the process of driving the cylinder to drive the split plate and the sliding rod to gradually approach the sample pool, the extension rod and the separation rod are driven by the movement of the sliding rod, so that the separation rod drives the closing plate and the closing head to gradually move away from the sealing gasket by using the lifting inclined surface, thereby canceling the blockage of the vent hole. Therefore, before the hot cover is opened, the air pressure between the sample pool and the sealing gasket is consistent with that outside, thereby facilitating the separation of the sample pool and the sealing gasket.

[0027] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
