The input end of the water supply pump 9 is fixedly connected to a water suction pipe 11. One end of the water suction pipe 11 is inserted into the water storage chamber 10. The output end of the water supply pump 9 is fixedly connected to a water supply pipe 12. One end of the water supply pipe 12 passes through the observation measuring cup 8 and extends into the observation measuring cup 8. A transmission component for driving the support rod 6 to rotate is installed at one end of the L-shaped base 1;

[0043] During use, first, the temperature sensor 27 is set to sense the water temperature inside the temperature control chamber 21, and the sensed information is transmitted to the controller 28. Then, the controller 28 controls the electric heating wire 22 to start and heat the water flow inside the temperature control chamber 21. When the water flow inside the temperature control chamber 21 reaches the predetermined temperature value, the temperature control water pump 23 is started to introduce the water flow inside the temperature control chamber 21 into the inside of the water bath heating chamber 25 through the first water conduit 24, and heat exchange is performed with the bubble liquid inside the observation measuring cup 8, thereby adjusting the temperature of the bubble liquid inside the observation measuring cup 8.

When the water flow inside the temperature control chamber 21 reaches the predetermined temperature value, the temperature control water pump 23 is started to introduce the water flow inside the temperature control chamber 21 into the inside of the water bath heating chamber 25 through the first water conduit 24, and heat exchange is performed with the bubble liquid inside the observation measuring cup 8, thereby adjusting the temperature of the bubble liquid inside the observation measuring cup 8. Then, the heat-exchanged water flow is introduced into the inside of the temperature control chamber 21 through the second water conduit 26 and is heated by the electric heating wire 22;
