Abstract

Provided is a heating mechanism for a biochemical reaction device, including: a heat-conducting body including: at least one accommodating groove each including a chamber and an opening communicating with the chamber; a clamping hole, in communication with the opening and for inserting a reaction tube; and at least one heat-conducting block, movably disposed in the chamber and having one end connected with an elastic element and another opposite end provided with an abutting portion, the elastic element enabling the abutting portion of the heat-conducting block to protrude from the opening and locate in the clamping hole; and a temperature control element connected to the heat-conducting body for heating and regulating a temperature of the heat-conducting block. The heat-conducting blocks of the heating mechanism can be in direct and assured contact with the reaction tube for conducting heat, so that the solution in the reaction tube can easily and assuredly reach a preset temperature, thereby achieving a consistent reaction condition and increasing the accuracy of the reaction result.
