The composite molded part includes an outer edge plate 1, a working surface large cloth 2, a non-working surface large cloth 4, an intermediate layer 3 located between the working surface large cloth and the non-working surface large cloth 4, and an inner edge plate 7. The outer edge plate 1 is provided with two mounting holes 9 symmetrically distributed about the center of the outer edge plate 1, and a bushing 11 is installed in the mounting hole 9.

[0022] The working surface cloth 2 and the non-working surface cloth 4 both include the outermost 2 layers of glass cloth prepreg cloth ply and the inner 6 layers of carbon fiber cloth prepreg cloth ply. The shapes of the 8 layers of cloth ply on the working surface and the non-working surface match the horizontal shapes of the working surface and the non-working surface of the blade respectively. The closer to the inner layer, the thinner the middle of the cloth ply. The corresponding cloth ply on the working surface and the non-working surface is laid at the same angle, and is laid from the outer layer to the inner layer according to the ply angles of +45°, -45°, 0°, -45°, +45°, 0°, 0° and +45°, which reduces the deformation of the stator blade. The edges of the working surface cloth 2 and the non-working surface cloth 4 are turned outward in opposite directions, each turned toward the inner edge of the inner edge plate 7 and the outer edge plate 1, so that the composite molded parts are integrated, which improves the load-bearing capacity of the stator blade.

[0023] The intermediate layer 3 is formed by laying 11 layers of non-working surface carbon fiber cloth prepreg intermediate layers and 11 layers of working surface carbon fiber cloth prepreg intermediate layers, with the middle of the intermediate layers as the symmetry plane, and the corresponding layers are laid symmetrically at the same angle, and are laid from the outer layer to the inner layer according to the laying angles of 0°, 0°, -45°, 0°, 0°, 0°, +45°, -45°, 0°, 0° and -45°. The shape of the outermost layer of the intermediate layer of the non-working surface matches the shape of the innermost layer of the large cloth layer of the non-working surface, and the intermediate layer is shorter as it moves to the inner layer, and the shape of the outermost layer of the intermediate layer of the working surface matches the large cloth layer of the working surface, and the intermediate layer is shorter as it moves to the inner layer.

[0024] The outer edge plate 1 is thick in the middle and thin at both ends, and the mounting hole is opened in the middle. It is formed by laying out the outermost 2 layers of glass cloth prepreg outer edge outer layers, the middle 19 layers of carbon fiber cloth prepreg outer edge middle layers and 41 layers of carbon fiber cloth prepreg small cloth outer edge inner layers. The 2 layers of outer edge outer layers and the 19 layers of outer edge middle layers wrap the 41 layers of small cloth outer edge inner layers inside, and are laid alternately at +45°, -45°, 0° and 90°. The structural integrity and bearing capacity of the outer edge plate are improved.

[0025] The inner edge plate 7 is a rounded rectangle, which is formed by laying out 2 layers of glass cloth prepreg inner edge outer plies and 8 layers of carbon fiber cloth prepreg inner edge inner plies. The inner edge outer plies and the inner edge inner plies are laid alternately at ply angles of +45° and -45° from outside to inside.

[0026] Further preferably, there is a gap between the working surface large cloth 2, the non-working surface large cloth 4 and the outer edge plate 1, and the gap is filled with filling material I5. There is a gap between the working surface large cloth 2, the non-working surface large cloth 4 and the inner edge plate 7, and the gap is filled with filling material II6. Filling material I5 and filling material II6 are made of carbon fiber cloth prepreg strips.

[0027] Of course, the present invention has many other embodiments. Without violating the spirit and essence of the present invention, technicians familiar with the field can make corresponding changes and deformations based on the present invention, but these corresponding changes and deformations should be regarded as improvements of equivalent technologies and belong to the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
