Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 One embodiment of this utility model is a cell biology incubator, including a box body 1, which is set for cell culture. The box body 1 has a groove inside, and a box door 2 is set on the right outer wall of the box body 1. The box door 2 is set for closing the opening of the box body 1.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4The inner wall of the housing 1 is in contact with a base 5, which provides support for the rotation of the rotating shaft 6 and the sliding of the mounting block 3. A receiving hole is provided on the upper side of the base 5. The rotating shaft 6 is rotatably connected to the upper inner wall of the base 5, providing support for the rotation of the carrier plate 8. The carrier plate 8 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating shaft 6. Cell culture dishes are placed on the carrier plate 8, which provides support for the fixing of the first fixing column 11 and the second fixing column 12. The upper side of the carrier plate 8... A fixing post 11 is fixedly connected to the outer wall, providing support for the rotation of the railing 7. The railing 7 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixing post 11. The railing 7 is attracted to the magnet 14 after contact, and the railing 7 is fixed by the magnet 14. The contact point between the railing 7 and the magnet 14 is made of metal. The railing 7 is arc-shaped. An adsorption component is provided on the upper outer wall of the bearing plate 8. The adsorption component is used to fix the position of the railing 7. An installation component is provided on the base 5. The installation component is used to install the base 5.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The mounting assembly includes a mounting block 3, which snaps onto the inner wall of the housing 1 to limit the position of the base 5. The upper inner wall of the mounting block 3 is hollow, and the upper diameter of the mounting block 3 is larger than the lower diameter. The inner wall of the mounting block 3 is slidably connected to the outer wall of the base 5. The upper outer wall of the mounting block 3 is elastically connected to the outer wall of the base 5 by a spring 4. An external force moves the mounting block 3 upward, making the lower outer wall of the mounting block 3 flush with the lower outer wall of the base 5. The spring 4 is then compressed. The external force is then removed. Mounting block 3 pops out under the elastic force of spring 4. One end of spring 4 is fixedly connected to the upper outer wall of mounting block 3, and the other end of spring 4 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of base 5. Fixing block 9 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of mounting block 3. The setting of fixing block 9 provides guidance for the sliding of mounting block 3. There are two fixing blocks 9.
