[0035] Working principle: When the petri dish needs to be placed, the operator first pulls the pull rope 47 through the ring 48 in the storage groove 49. The pull rope 47 moves the moving plate 44 upward, and the piston 43 moves upward inside the circular groove 42. The spring 46 deforms. Then, the operator places the petri dish into the placement groove 3. The operator releases the ring 48. Under the action of the spring 46's return force, the moving plate 44 moves downward with the piston 43. The space inside the suction cup 41 increases, and the air pressure inside the suction cup 41 decreases. Under the action of the external atmospheric pressure, the suction cup 41 tightly adheres to the petri dish, achieving the effect of fixing the petri dish. Afterward, the operator places the placement plate 2 and the petri dish together into the placement groove 3. Inside the incubator body 1, the cell culture dish is cultured. When the culture dish is to be removed, the staff removes the placement plate 2 inside the incubator body 1. Then, the staff pulls the ring 48, which moves the pull rope 47 and the moving plate 44. The moving plate 44 moves the piston 43 upward, reducing the space inside the suction cup 41. The suction cup 41 then releases its grip on the culture dish, and the staff can then remove the culture dish. The fixing device 4 secures the culture dish, preventing it from detaching from the placement plate 2 when the staff removes it, thus preventing the culture dish from falling to the ground and being damaged.

[0036] Before pulling the ring 48 in the storage tank 49, the operator first moves the protective cover 51 using the pull plate 55. The protective cover 51 moves along the slide rail 53, exposing the storage tank 49 underneath. Then, the operator pulls the ring 48 and the pull rope 47. After operating the ring 48, the operator moves the protective cover 51 again. One end of the protective cover 51 is pressed against the pad 52 by the rubber pad 54, limiting the position of the protective cover 51. At this time, the protective cover 51 covers the storage tank 49 again, preventing the operator from accidentally touching the ring 48, which could cause the petri dish to loosen. The auxiliary device 5 achieves the effect of protecting the ring 48 and the pull rope 47 in the storage tank 49, preventing the operator from accidentally touching the pull rope 47, which could cause the petri dish to loosen.
