[0019] The present invention's panel-inlaid carbon fiber guitar features an acoustically structured panel and fingerboard structure bonded and inlaid onto a carbon fiber body integrated with the bottom side of the handle. This combines the traditions of the guitar industry with modern intelligent manufacturing. The panel-inlaid carbon fiber guitar of this embodiment replaces approximately 85% of the wood used in traditional guitars, reducing approximately 83% of the dust and sawdust produced during the traditional manufacturing process. This is more environmentally friendly than traditional methods, while also eliminating complex and labor-intensive processes, allowing workers to perform more detailed and technically demanding processes.

[0032] Example 1:

[0033] Please refer to Figure 1-7 This embodiment provides a carbon fiber guitar with an inlaid panel, including a carbon fiber body 10, and a panel 20 and a fingerboard 30 installed on the carbon fiber body 10.

[0034] The carbon fiber body 10 of this embodiment includes a handle 11, side panels 12, and a bottom panel 13. The handle 11, side panels 12, and bottom panel 13 are integrally formed from carbon fiber. The side panels 12 are formed at the edge of the bottom panel 13 and extend to one side of the bottom panel 13, thereby forming a resonance cavity between the side panels 12 and the bottom panel 13. The resonance cavity forms an inner groove 122 on the side away from the bottom panel 13. The handle 11 is formed on the outside of the side panels 12 and includes a neck 111 and a head 112.

[0035] The top panel 20 is a wooden soundboard and can be made of spruce, red pine, cedar, Brazilian wood, mahogany, maple, or other composite woods. The top panel 20 is embedded in the inner sink 122. The top panel 20 has a sound hole 21, and a guitar lower bridge 50 is disposed on the outer side of the top panel 20. A plurality of sound beams are fixed to the side of the top panel 20 near the resonance chamber. The fingerboard 30 is a wooden structure and can be made of rosewood, maple, ebony, or other composite woods. The fingerboard 30 is fixed to the neck 111.

[0036] This embodiment combines the traditional guitar industry with modern intelligent manufacturing by covering the carbon fiber body 10 with an integrated handle bottom side, and bonding and inlaying the panel 20 and fingerboard 30 with an acoustic structure. The panel-inlaid carbon fiber guitar of this embodiment replaces approximately 85% of the wood in traditional guitars, reducing approximately 83% of the dust and sawdust generated during the traditional manufacturing process. Compared with traditional methods, it is more environmentally friendly and frees up labor-intensive processes, allowing workers to perform more detailed and technical processes. At the same time, by integrally forming the handle 11, side panels 12, and bottom panel 13 of the carbon fiber body 10 from carbon fiber, the dimensions and positioning of the components are precise, the product consistency is high, and it is more adaptable to different dry and wet environments than traditional wood and is less prone to deformation. Carbon fiber guitars generally have a clear and bright tone, while wood materials can provide a warm and rich tone. By combining the two, a balanced tone can be achieved, giving the guitar both clear high frequencies and warm mid- and low-frequency sounds. The sunken inlaid panel 20 can provide better acoustic response, making the sound fuller and more balanced, while improving manufacturing consistency and precision, reducing errors in the assembly process, and enhancing the overall balance of the instrument without adding too much extra weight, making it more comfortable to play. The resonance characteristics of the sunken inlaid wooden panel 20 compensate for the shortcomings of carbon fiber at certain frequencies, thereby enhancing the overall sound effect of the guitar. The reasonable material selection, structural design, connection method and tuning process of the wooden part and carbon fiber material can make the tone complementary and balanced, creating a guitar that has both the durability of carbon fiber and the rich tone of wood to meet the needs of different players.

[0037] In this embodiment, a plurality of side braces 121 are formed on the inner side of the side panels 12. These side braces 121 are spaced apart around the circumference of the resonance chamber, creating gaps between adjacent side braces 121. These gaps allow the ends of the sound beams to pass through, forming a stable plug-in structure. One end of each side brace 121 is connected to the bottom panel 13, and the other end is used to connect to the edge of the top panel 20. The side braces 121 provide additional support, preventing the resonance chamber from deforming when subjected to tensile forces (such as string tension), thereby ensuring the long-term stability of the guitar.

[0038] Furthermore, a beading 40 is included. The beading 40 is provided on the outer edge of the panel 20 and fixed to the inner edge of the side panel 12. The beading 40 limits the displacement of the panel 20 and fixes the panel 20 to the inner groove 122, thereby improving the connection stability between the panel 20 and the carbon fiber body 10 and providing aesthetic decoration. A sound hole ring 211 is provided at the edge of the sound hole 21 to provide additional support and prevent the edge of the sound hole 21 from cracking or splitting due to string tension and vibration.

[0039] In this embodiment, the bottom plate 13 is curved and convex outward; its outer edges are rounded. Several curved stays 131 are formed on the inside of the bottom plate 13; each end of these stays 131 extends to connect with the side plates 12. The curved back plate effectively disperses pressure, making it stronger overall, able to withstand greater tension and bending forces, reduce the risk of deformation, optimize the propagation path of sound waves, and enhance volume and clarity.

[0040] The head portion 112 of the handle 11 is provided with several mounting holes 1121 for mounting tuners. A positioning slot 1111 is formed along the length of the neck portion 111 of the handle 11. A positioning block is formed on the back of the fingerboard 30. The fingerboard 30 is mounted to the neck portion 111 of the handle 11 by engaging the positioning slots 1111 with the positioning block. Several first blind holes 1112 are formed on either side of the positioning slot 1111. Second blind holes are formed at corresponding locations on the back of the fingerboard 30. These first and second blind holes 1112 are connected by a connecting pin, improving positioning accuracy and facilitating accessory installation.

[0041] Furthermore, the faceplate 20, fingerboard 30, and carbon fiber body 10 are all equipped with shock-absorbing pads at their interface. Adding shock-absorbing material to the joints absorbs some vibrations and reduces unnecessary sound wave loss. This prevents undesirable resonances while protecting the wood.

[0042] This embodiment optimizes the environmental, safety, and quality aspects of guitar manufacturing, designing an acoustic guitar that utilizes new materials and advanced manufacturing techniques to form a one-piece, assembled guitar. The production process for this embodiment's inlaid carbon fiber guitar with a panel can be accomplished by using modeling software to create a 3D model of the product's underside, which is then printed using a 3D printer for reference and optimization, and then a mold is created. Based on this model, the underside carbon fiber components are pre-embedded with the necessary wooden front and rear joints and side braces 121 at a temperature of 120°C. CNC planing, angle milling, and drilling are then performed. The panel 20 is then bonded to the carbon fiber body 10, which is integrated with the underside of the handle. The fingerboard 30 is then bonded to the carbon fiber body 10, and the panel is then finished with decorative molding, fine-tuning the fingerboard 30, and painting. Other accessories are then assembled. This combines traditional guitar manufacturing with modern intelligent manufacturing methods, replacing approximately 85% of the wood used in traditional guitars and reducing approximately 83% of the dust and sawdust generated during the traditional manufacturing process. This is more environmentally friendly than traditional methods, while also freeing workers from complex and physically demanding processes, allowing them to perform more detailed and technical tasks. At the same time, since this product uses a carbon fiber body 10 that is integrated with the bottom side of the handle, it can adapt to different dry and wet environments better than traditional wood and is not easy to deform, allowing consumers to always maintain a good musical feeling when playing.

[0043] Although certain components and embodiments of the present application have been illustrated and described, many modifications and changes (e.g., changes in size, dimensions, structure, shape and proportions of the various elements, mounting arrangements, use of materials, colors, orientations, etc.) may occur to those skilled in the art without actually departing from the scope and spirit of the claims.

[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the above-mentioned implementation mode is only a preferred embodiment mode of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and replacements made by technicians in this field on the basis of the present invention fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
