[0002] The existing technology for achieving the location of the component installation surface on the inner surface of the carbon fiber composite product is mainly to bond the parts with threaded holes to the inner surface by structural adhesive after the carbon fiber composite product is formed, and to punch holes in the carbon fiber composite product after it is formed and fix it with fasteners.

[0003] The disadvantage of bonding parts with threaded holes to the inner surface with structural adhesive after the carbon fiber composite product is formed is that the bonding after the carbon fiber composite product is formed requires secondary processing, which is not suitable for mass production, has low production efficiency, and increases production costs. By bonding parts with threaded holes to the inner surface of the carbon fiber composite product, the installation dimensional accuracy of the parts cannot be guaranteed and the flatness of the bonding surface is difficult to constrain. The bonding force and load-bearing capacity of the bonding process are poor, and the appearance uniformity of the product is poor. The disadvantage of punching holes and fixing them with fasteners after the carbon fiber composite product is formed is that the product parts need to be fixed with fasteners after the carbon fiber composite product is formed. The fasteners are exposed on the surface of the carbon fiber composite product, which affects the appearance of the product and is not conducive to placement and assembly. For products with special requirements such as sealing, this method has great limitations. Summary of the invention
