[0035] In other embodiments of the present invention, arc-shaped guide surfaces 3134 are provided on both sides of the opening of the positioning opening 3133.

[0038] like Figure 1-12 As shown, the mixing oscillation device includes an oscillation platform 10 and a base unit 20 , and the oscillation platform 10 and the base unit 20 use the above-mentioned oscillation platform stop positioning mechanism.

[0039] In other embodiments of the present invention, the upper surface of the oscillating platform 10 is used to place the sample well plate, and the bottom surface of the oscillating platform 10 is provided with three ball support surfaces 11 distributed in a circular array, and the bottom surface of the oscillating platform 10 is also provided with at least three magnetic columns 12 extending vertically downward, and the magnetic columns 12 are sleeved with rolling bearings 122, and the bottom of the magnetic columns 12 is installed with upper magnets 124; the base unit 30 includes a lower seat, and the middle part of the lower seat is provided with a polarization drive mechanism 31; the upper surface of the lower seat is provided with three concave ball receiving holes 32, and the ball receiving holes 32 are provided with balls 321, and the top of the ball 321 is aligned with the ball support of the oscillating platform. The lower seat body is in contact with the bearing surface 11, and a first elastic ring 322 is provided in the middle of the inner wall of the ball accommodating hole 32. The height position of the first elastic ring 322 matches the height of the center of the ball 321. The upper surface of the lower seat body is also provided with at least three concave polarization track slots 33. The bottom of the polarization track slot 33 is provided with a lower magnet 331. The magnetic column 12 extends downward into the polarization track slot 33. The upper magnet 124 and the lower magnet 331 attract each other. The bottom surface of the magnetic column 12 is in a non-contact state with the bottom surface of the polarization track slot 33. The inner wall of the polarization track slot 33 is provided with a second elastic ring 332. The height position of the second elastic ring 332 matches the rolling bearing 122 on the magnetic column. The beneficial effects of adopting the above technical solution are: the oscillation platform is supported by three balls of the same height, and the three points form a stable support surface. Under the action of non-contact magnetic attraction, the oscillation platform can still remain in the same plane during high-frequency oscillation, thereby improving the smoothness of operation; during oscillation, the column body of the magnetic column is first buffered by the contact between the elastic ring and the rolling bearing. After the elastic ring is compressed to a certain extent, the column body of the magnetic column contacts the inner wall of the polarization track slot, which can significantly reduce the noise during high-frequency oscillation.

[0042] In other embodiments of the present invention, the rolling bearing 122 and the copper pillar 123 are coaxially arranged. The outer diameter of the copper pillar 123 is larger than that of the rolling bearing 122. The difference between the outer diameters of the copper pillar 123 and the outer diameters of the rolling bearing 122 is denoted by a. The protrusion of the inner ring of the second elastic ring 332 from the inner wall of the polarization track slot 33 in the free state is denoted by b. Here, b > a / 2 + 0.5 mm, and 0.1 mm ≤ a ≤ 1 mm. This advantageous effect of employing the above-described technical solution is that it balances the elastic ring's shock-absorbing and buffering effect on the operation of the magnetic pillar with the rigid support provided by the copper pillar and the inner wall of the polarization track slot, ensuring stable operation of the oscillator and extending its service life.
