The peripheral wall 133 surrounds the peripheral edge of the bottom wall 131. The peripheral wall 133 is matched with the first housing 11, so that the outer surface 113 of the first housing 11 can be just attached to the surface of the peripheral wall 133 facing the bottom wall 131. The first edge 112 of the first housing 11 can abut against the bottom wall 131 or a joint between the bottom wall 131 and the peripheral wall 133.
The second housing 13 is a composite structure. In the present embodiment, the following preferred embodiments of the second housing 13 are given.
Referring to fig. 6, a first preferred embodiment of the second housing 13 is shown. The second housing 13 includes a composite layer 132.
In the present embodiment, the composite layer 132 includes at least one composite layer. The composite layer is made of a composite material. The composite material comprises a powder material, a coupling agent and a coupling agent. Specifically, 50-90% of powder material, 9-49% of coupling agent and 0.01-5% of coupling agent are mixed and made into a composite layer. The raw material ratio for preparing the composite layer is mass percent. A single layer or a plurality of stacked composite layers may be used as the composite layer 132. The powder material can be a ceramic powder material or a non-ceramic powder material. The ceramic powder material may be, but is not limited to, alumina ceramic, zirconia ceramic, boron nitride, silicon carbide, and boron carbide. The non-ceramic powder material may be, but is not limited to, titanium oxide, calcium oxide, vitreous silica powder, and mineral-based powder. The shape of the powder material can be spherical or irregular, and is preferably spherical. The coupling agent may be, but is not limited to, one or more of phenolic resin, epoxy resin, and any other type of thermosetting resin. The coupling agent may be, but is not limited to, one or more of a silane coupling agent, a titanate coupling agent, an aluminate coupling agent, a bimetallic coupling agent, a phosphate coupling agent, and a borate coupling agent. The powder material is used as a preparation raw material of the second shell 13, and is used for improving the strength of the shell 10 and enriching the appearance effect and texture of the shell 10. The coupling agent is used for improving the mechanical processing performance (such as cutting performance and grinding and polishing performance) of the composite material, so that the composite layer can be formed and processed at lower temperature. The coupling agent is used as an interface agent between the powder material and the coupling agent and is used for improving the bonding strength between the powder material and the coupling agent.
Further, an appearance layer 15 is formed on the surface of the composite material layer 132 away from the first shell 11 to serve as an appearance surface of the shell 10, so that the appearance decoration effect of the shell 10 is improved. The appearance layer 15 may be formed on the surface of the composite material layer 132 by spraying, transfer printing (thermal transfer printing or water transfer printing), vacuum coating, glazing with ceramic glaze, or the like.
Referring to fig. 7, a second preferred embodiment of the second housing 13 is shown. The second housing 13 comprises several layers 132 of composite material. Wherein each composite layer 132 has a respective color. Thus, a plurality of composite material layers 132 with different colors are stacked, and a color mixing and stacking principle is combined, so that the second shell 13 with a colorful appearance effect is obtained. Wherein, the color of the composite material layer 132 can be adjusted adaptively according to actual needs.
In this embodiment, the second housing 13 includes three layers of composite material 132. For convenience of description, the three composite material layers 132 are defined as a first composite material layer 132a, a second composite material layer 132b, and a third composite material layer 132 c. The first composite material layer 132a, the second composite material layer 132b and the third composite material layer 132c have different colors, so that the second shell 13 with colorful appearance effect can be formed by sequentially overlapping the first composite material layer 132a, the second composite material layer 132b and the third composite material layer 132 c.
Referring to fig. 8A, 8B and 8C, a third preferred embodiment of the second housing 13 is shown. The second shell 13 comprises at least one composite layer 132 and at least one fibrous layer 134. The fiber layer 134 may be made of one or more of glass fiber and aramid fiber. In this embodiment, the fiber layer 134 is made of a mixture of glass fibers and aramid fibers. Specifically, glass fibers and aramid fibers are woven to obtain fiber cloth with different textures and thicknesses, and then the fiber cloth is subjected to fiber pre-dipping through different resin materials to form pre-dipped fiber cloth. A single layer or a plurality of layers of prepreg fiber cloth can be used as the fiber layer 134. The resin material may be a thermosetting resin or a thermoplastic resin.
In this embodiment, the at least one composite material layer 132 and the at least one fiber layer 134 are sequentially disposed at intervals to form the second shell 13. The composite material layer 132 away from the first housing 11 serves as an external appearance surface of the housing 10. Please refer to the following embodiments.

Wherein, the composite material layer 132 far away from the first shell 11 is used as the appearance surface of the shell 10.
Further, the second housing 13 further includes an appearance layer 15. The appearance layer 15 is formed on the surface of the composite layer 132 away from the first housing 11.
Referring to fig. 9A, 9B and 9C, a fourth preferred embodiment of the second housing 13 is shown. The second shell 13 comprises at least one composite layer 132 and at least one fibrous layer 134.
In this embodiment, the at least one composite material layer 132 and the at least one fiber layer 134 are sequentially disposed at intervals to form the second shell 13. The fiber layer 134 far from the first housing 11 serves as an appearance surface of the housing 10. It will be appreciated that in order to enrich the appearance of the housing 10, this may be achieved by changing the weave texture and/or colour of the fabric layer 134. Please refer to the following embodiments.
Embodiment mode 1
Referring to fig. 9A, the second shell 13 includes a composite layer 132 and a fiber layer 134 stacked on the composite layer 132. Wherein the fiber layer 134 serves as an appearance surface of the housing 10.

Embodiment 3
Referring to fig. 9C, the second shell 13 includes two composite material layers 132 and two fiber layers 134. The two composite material layers 132 and the two fiber layers 134 are sequentially arranged at intervals. Wherein the fiber layer 134 far away from the first shell 11 is used as the appearance surface of the shell 10.
It is understood that the above mentioned stacking and bonding between the composite layers, the pre-impregnated fiber cloth and the pre-impregnated fiber cloth, the stacking and bonding between the composite layers and the fiber layers, and the bonding between the first housing 11 and the second housing 13 can be achieved by air-heat isostatic pressing.
Referring to fig. 10 and 11, in this embodiment, the housing 10 further includes a bonding layer 17. The bonding layer 17 is formed on an outer surface 113 of the first housing 11 to enhance bonding performance between the first housing 11 and the second housing 13.
Referring again to fig. 10, in the present embodiment, the bonding layer 17 is an aperture layer 171. The orifice layer 171 may be formed by subjecting the first case 11 to any one of E treatment, T treatment, and anodic oxidation treatment. The holes in the bore layer 171 are filled with the composite material layer 132 or the fiber layer 134 in the second housing 13 to form an anchor effect, thereby improving the bonding performance of the first housing 11 and the second housing 13. Wherein the pore size in the pore layer 171 is in the micrometer and nanometer scale.
In other embodiments, the bonding layer 17 is a coating 172. Specifically, the outer surface 113 of the first housing 11 is subjected to a surface treatment using a surface treatment agent, so that the coating layer 172 is formed on the outer surface 113. The surface treatment agent may be, but is not limited to, one or more of a silane coupling agent, a titanate coupling agent, an aluminate coupling agent, a bimetallic coupling agent, a phosphate coupling agent, and a borate coupling agent. It will be appreciated that the surface treatment acts as a coupling agent, comprising two groups of different chemical nature, one being an inorganophilic group, susceptible to chemical reaction with the surface of the mineral; the other is an organophilic group that can chemically react with synthetic resins or other polymers or produce hydrogen bonds. Therefore, the surface treating agent can improve the interface action between inorganic matters and organic matters, thereby greatly improving the combination performance of heterogeneous materials. In this way, the first shell 11 made of the metal and nonmetal composite material can form a strong chemical bond with the composite material layer 132 or the fiber layer 134 on the second shell 13 under the action of the surface treatment agent, thereby forming the shell 10 with stable bonding strength.
Referring again to fig. 11, in another embodiment, the bonding layer 17 is a combination of the porous layer 171 and the coating 172. Specifically, the surface of the first housing 11 on which the porous layer 171 is formed is subjected to surface treatment using a surface treatment agent to form a coating layer 172 on the surface of the porous layer 171. Wherein the pores in the pore layer 171 are partially filled with the coating 172; the composite material layer 132 or the fiber layer 134 in the second housing 13 is formed on the surface of the coating layer 172 and fills the holes in the hole layer 171.
Referring to fig. 12, it is understood that in other embodiments, the second housing 13 may include only the peripheral wall 133. In this way, the second housing 13 has the same ring structure as the first housing 11 and is matched with the first housing. The second housing 13 can be sleeved on the outer surface 113 of the first housing 11.
The invention provides a preparation method of the shell 10, which comprises the following steps:

A second housing 13 is formed on the first housing 11 to form the housing 10.
Specifically, a composite material or prepreg fiber cloth is coated on the second shell 13 to form the second shell 13. The second housing 13 has a substantially U-shaped cross section, and includes a bottom wall 131 and a peripheral wall 133. The peripheral wall 133 surrounds the periphery of the bottom wall 131.
