10. A working method system of a gastrointestinal magnetic driving spherical drug delivery capsule robot is characterized in that in a space universal magnetic field, the attractive force or the repulsive force of a magnetic lock (2) formed by a permanent magnet I (2-1) and a permanent magnet II (2-2) is controlled, and when the magnetic pole directions of the permanent magnet I (2-1) and the permanent magnet II (2-2) are the same, the repulsive force is in a closed state in the magnetic lock; when the magnetic pole directions of the permanent magnet I (2-1) and the permanent magnet II (2-2) are opposite, suction force is generated between the permanent magnet I (2-1) and the permanent magnet II, and the magnetic lock is in an open state; the size and the phase of the current input by the power supply to the coil are controlled so as to change the size and the direction of the magnetic field generated by the triaxial Helmholtz coil, thereby realizing two states of 'motion' and 'application' of the spherical capsule robot in the working environment; the method specifically comprises the following steps:
(1) The spherical medicine applying capsule robot reaches the initial position of the working environment, at the moment, the magnetic pole directions of the permanent magnet I (2-1) and the permanent magnet II (2-2) are the same, the magnetic lock (2) is a repulsive force, and is in a closed state, and at the moment, the spherical medicine applying capsule robot is in a 'motion' state; the spherical pesticide application capsule robot can realize free walking under the coupling drive of magnetic moments generated by the triaxial Helmholtz coil; when the spherical capsule robot contacts the edge of the working environment, the motion state is rolling walking, the magnetic torque becomes the rolling driving force contacting the working environment, and the rolling of the spherical capsule robot in the working environment is realized; when the capsule robot moves in the working environment to reach the target, the capsule robot stops at a fixed point under the control of an external magnetic field;
(2) When the spherical medicine applying capsule robot moves to a designated place, the direction of a magnetic field generated by the triaxial Helmholtz coil is changed, so that the change of the moving direction of the capsule robot is realized, the posture is adjusted, the position of a medicine releasing hole (1-1) is adjusted, and the medicine applying capsule robot reaches the designated position and enters a medicine applying state;
(3) When the medicine is released, the direction of current in the coil is changed into the opposite direction to the original direction, namely the opposite magnetic field direction is generated, the permanent magnet II (2-2) rotates on the rotary column (1-2), the original magnetic pole direction is changed, the magnetic poles of the permanent magnet I (2-1) are opposite, the magnetic force lock (2) generates suction force, the magnetic pole directions of the two permanent magnets are opposite, at the moment, the magnetic force lock is in an opening state, the spherical medicine applying capsule robot generates deformation, the rotary column (1-2) pushes the bottom piston (7) and simultaneously drives the medicine cartridge pushing rod (6), the medicine cartridge protecting device (4) is extruded, and the medicine cartridge (5) is pushed to spray the medicine from the release hole (1-1) to a patient;
(4) After the medicine is released, the current direction of the original coil is continuously changed, the permanent magnet II (2-2) is transformed by a magnetic field to rotate, at the moment, the magnetic pole directions of the permanent magnet I (2-1) and the permanent magnet II (2-2) are the same again, repulsive force is generated in the magnetic lock, the closing of the magnetic lock is completed, and the shell of the spherical capsule dispensing robot is restored to be spherical;
(5) After the spherical pesticide application capsule robot finishes working, the spherical pesticide application capsule robot moves by changing the magnetic field direction generated by the triaxial Helmholtz coil, so that the spherical pesticide application capsule robot exits from the working environment.
