As the reagent box 501 is transported to the inside of the analysis and detection instrument, when the reagent box 501 reaches the bottom of the negative pressure frame 9, the negative pressure frame 9 moves downward to absorb multiple disposable filter paper funnels 502, so that the disposable filter paper funnel 502 is separated from the corresponding reagent box 501, so that the reagent box 501 is transported to the inside of the analysis and detection instrument;

[0030] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 ,- Figure 6 A concave frame 7 is fixed on the outer side of the positioning frame 6, and a feeding frame 8 is slidably installed on the top surface of the concave frame 7.
