New energy vehicles have great potential in environmental friendliness and sustainable travel. The "three-electric" technology of new energy vehicles is basically mature, and the driving range and battery pack energy are gradually improving. As the automotive industry deepens in the development of electric vehicles, a variety of electric vehicle parts have been derived. Electricity as a vehicle power is more conducive to protecting the environment, saving energy and reducing emissions. The development of assisted driving, vehicle networking, smart cockpits and human-computer interaction will greatly enhance the driving experience of car owners.

[0003] Traditional electric charging port covers usually use touch or press control methods to automatically open and close the charging port cover, accompanied by an internal indicator light function. When opened, the charging port cover is opened through the input of various control signals, without information feedback. The internal indicator light is electrically connected to the vehicle system, and the user does not need to interact with the vehicle system to realize the internal indicator light function. The human-computer interaction is poor, which affects the user experience. The current development of new energy vehicles focuses on human-computer interaction to improve the driving experience of car owners. Therefore, the development of a visual intelligent charging port cover structure device is of great significance to the improvement of the intelligent use of the car charging port cover.
