At this time, the rotating rod 402 can be directly pulled out from the frame 202 from this end of the threaded rod 403, and the cleaning roller 401 can also be pulled out from the rotating rod 402, which is convenient for cleaning the cleaning roller 401.

[0051] During specific use, the sealing film 5 is transmitted by a film feeding mechanism. The film feeding mechanism adopts an existing publicly disclosed film feeding mechanism, that is, four driving rotating shafts are used. Two driving rotating shafts are distributed above the frame 202, one for film feeding and one for film winding, and the other two driving rotating shafts are distributed below the frame 202 to achieve a driving effect.

[0052] In the process of transmission, the cleaning roller 401 is fixed, and the movable sealing film 5 is wiped by the cleaning roller 401 due to the adhesion of the cleaning roller 401 and the sealing film 5. The hydraulic cylinder 201 and the heating resistance wire are started, the connecting plate 203 is driven by the hydraulic cylinder 201 to press down, the heating plate 204 heats the sealing film 5 to make it adhere to the 96-hole plate on the transmission machine 1, and then the hydraulic column 301 is started, the blade 302 is driven by the hydraulic column 301 to press down, so as to cut the sealing film 5.

[0053] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
