  • Publication number: 20240299715
    Abstract: The disclosure belongs to the technical field of capsule robotics, and in particular, relates to a magnetically driven capsule robot with controllable drug administration and sampling functions and a fabrication method thereof. A magnetically driven capsule robot provided by the disclosure includes a robot body and a magnetic field-driven control module. The robot body includes a capsule shell, two ends of the capsule shell are provided with hollow air chambers, and a carrier chamber is disposed between the hollow air chambers disposed on the two ends. A substance transfer channel, a magnetic lock disposed around the substance transfer channel, and a magnetic soft switch valve matched with the magnetic lock are disposed on a side wall of the carrier chamber. The soft valve automatically closes due to the magnetic attraction force between the lock and valve, and can be flexibly opened under a magnetic torque acting on the valve.
