[0035] With the development of society, the use of new energy vehicles such as electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles is becoming more and more common, and the charging door on the new energy vehicle is an important component on the vehicle body, which is used to cover the charging interface on the vehicle body; currently many new energy vehicles can only display the remaining power of the vehicle on the instrument after starting the vehicle or display the remaining power of the vehicle near the charging interface after opening the charging door; the driver cannot obtain the information of the remaining power of the vehicle conveniently and timely. If a screen that displays the remaining power of the vehicle in real time is added to the outer surface of the vehicle body, it will affect the appearance of the vehicle.

[0036] Based on this, this embodiment provides a small charging door. By opening a light-transmitting portion on the door panel of the small charging door, the display screen can be built into the inner side of the door panel, and the remaining power of the vehicle displayed on the display screen can be seen without opening the small charging door. With the setting method of covering the door panel with a semi-permeable membrane, the light-transmitting portion and the display screen can be prevented from being directly exposed to the external environment, ensuring the appearance consistency of the small charging door and the vehicle body. At the same time, the display light on the display screen can also pass through the small charging door, and the information on the remaining power of the vehicle can be observed by outsiders. The following is a detailed description through specific embodiments:

It should be understood that the shape and size of the light-transmitting portion 4 match the shape and size of the display screen 3, as long as it can be ensured that the information displayed on the display screen 3 can be completely transmitted to the outside world; specifically, the sunshade 12 can be made of plastic, metal or other materials. Through the setting of the sunshade 12, the strength of the entire door panel 1 can be further improved.

[0041] Continue to refer to Figure 5 As shown, the charging door also includes a transparent protective plate 13, and the transparent protective plate 13, the semi-permeable membrane 2, the transparent plate 11 and the shading plate 12 are bonded in sequence; it should be understood that the transparent protective plate 13 is located at the outermost side, and its function is to protect the semi-permeable membrane 2 from being scratched or bumped by foreign objects from the outside, and the transparent protective plate 13 has a low maintenance cost and can be repaired and replaced after being damaged. The transparent protective plate 13, the semi-permeable membrane 2, the transparent plate 11 and the shading plate 12 are bonded in sequence to form the door panel 1.

[0042] In some embodiments, the display screen 3 is mounted on the inner side of the door panel 1; it should be understood that the display screen 3 can rotate together with the door panel 1. This arrangement can reduce the distance between the door panel 1 and the display screen 3, thereby making it easier for the light on the display screen 3 to be displayed on the semi-permeable membrane 2.

[0043] Continue to refer to Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the charging door also includes a door panel bracket 5 and a display screen 3. The door panel 1 is buckled on the door panel bracket 5, the door panel 1 and the door panel bracket 5 form a sealed space, and the display screen 3 is installed in the sealed space; the provision of the door panel bracket 5 can further improve the overall strength of the entire charging door, and at the same time, the door panel bracket 5 and the door panel 1 can be detachably connected, such as by snap-on, bolt connection, bonding, etc., so as to facilitate the maintenance and replacement of the display screen 3 inside the door; by the provision of the sealed space, the probability of the display screen 3 being affected by external pollutants can be further reduced, thereby improving the working stability and safety of the display screen 3; it should be understood that a hinge can be provided on the door panel bracket 5, so as to be hingedly connected to the vehicle body.

[0044] Continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, a seal 6 is provided at the connection between the door panel 1 and the door panel bracket 5; specifically, the seal 6 can be a sealing foam or a sealant or the like, as long as the airtightness of the sealed space can be ensured to protect the display screen 3 from being affected by external pollutants.
