S 1 : setting a controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling mechanism ( 1 ) into two states of a state 0 and a state 1, wherein the state 0 refers to drilling and the state 1 refers to rotary sliding guiding drilling, writing a corresponding program into a processor ( 10 ), initializing the controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling mechanism ( 1 ) to be in the state 0 before lowering, lowering a drill tool to a bottom hole, and driving a drill bit ( 6 ) to perform drilling;
S 2 : during drilling, emitting an oriented tool face angle A according to drilling requirements, receiving a real-time tool face angle B measured by a MWD ( 2 ) through the processor ( 10 ) by the controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling mechanism ( 1 ), and feeding back information through a wireless data transmission module ( 8 );
S 3 : controlling to stop a pump for 30 seconds to 60 seconds after receiving a signal, identifying an effective signal of stopping the pump for 30 seconds to 60 seconds by the processor ( 10 ), setting the controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling mechanism ( 1 ) to be in the state 1, judging an angle change rate based on an angle difference between the oriented tool face angle A and the real-time tool face angle B in combination with a numerical value of the real-time tool face angle B by setting the oriented tool face angle A as a target value in the processor, and distributing a clutching frequency N to a clutch module ( 7 );
S 4 : controlling an electromagnetic valve ( 11 ) to be turned on and off based on the distributed clutching frequency N by the processor ( 10 ), controlling a bent screw drill tool ( 3 ) to perform rotary sliding guiding drilling according to a target tool face angle, and identifying a running state according to an internal and external pipe pressure difference by an external pipe pressure sensor ( 9 ) and an internal pipe pressure sensor ( 12 ); and
S 5 : when drilling is needed, stopping the pump for 30 seconds to 60 seconds, identifying the effective signal of stopping the pump 30 seconds to 60 seconds by the processor ( 10 ), and adjusting the controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling mechanism ( 1 ) to be converted from the state 1 into the state 0 to perform drilling; and
wherein, the wireless remote control method for controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling is realized on the basis of a wireless remote control system for controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling, and the wireless remote control system for controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling comprises:
the controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling mechanism ( 1 ), wherein an upper end of the controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling mechanism ( 1 ) is provided with a drill rod ( 6 ); and
further comprising:
the MWD ( 2 ) arranged at a lower end of the controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling mechanism ( 1 );
the bent screw drill tool ( 3 ) mounted at a lower end of the MWD ( 2 );
the drill bit ( 5 ) mounted at a lower end of the bent screw drill tool ( 3 ), wherein the drill bit ( 5 ) is connected with the bent screw drill tool ( 3 ) through a connector ( 4 ); and
the clutch module ( 7 ) mounted on the controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling mechanism ( 1 ), wherein the clutch module ( 7 ) comprises the electromagnetic valve ( 11 ), the processor ( 10 ), the internal pipe pressure sensor ( 12 ), the external pipe pressure sensor ( 9 ) and the wireless data transmission module ( 8 );
output ends of the internal pipe pressure sensor ( 12 ) and the external pipe pressure sensor ( 9 ) are both electrically connected with an input end of the processor ( 10 ), an output end of the processor ( 10 ) is electrically connected with an input end of the electromagnetic valve ( 11 ), and at least three electromagnetic valves ( 11 ) are provided.

2. The wireless remote control method for controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling according to claim 1 , wherein in S 3 and S 5 , the running state of the pump is identified by the external pipe pressure sensor ( 9 ) and the internal pipe pressure sensor ( 12 ) according to the internal and external pipe pressure difference.

3. The wireless remote control method for controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling according to claim 1 , wherein in S 1 , the state 0 and the state 1 are opposite to each other, when the controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling mechanism ( 1 ) is in the state 0, and the processor ( 10 ) identifies the signal of stopping the pump for 30 seconds to 60 seconds, the controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling mechanism ( 1 ) is converted to be in the state 1; and when the controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling mechanism ( 1 ) is in the state 1, and the processor ( 10 ) identifies the signal of stopping the pump for 30 seconds to 60 seconds, the controllable rotary sliding guiding drilling mechanism ( 1 ) is converted to be in the state 0.
