A vacuum chamber transfer rod, that is, a vacuum transfer sample rod, is often used. As a common experimental instrument, it is widely used in many fields such as chemistry, physics, and biology. The vacuum chamber transfer rod is an experimental tool that uses vacuum adsorption and transfer technology.

[0013] Furthermore, the docking movable tube is sealedly connected to the valve assembly, and the docking movable tube has horizontal axial rotation ability with the connecting flange through the connection of the precision bearing.
[0014] The utility model provides a vacuum chamber sample transfer rod, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1.
