  • the lighting of the interior or edge area is now used to make the flap or the lid also improved to be able to find the lid or the flap easily and quickly even in low light conditions.
  • the lighting function provided by the lighting means is thus used twice, on the one hand for illuminating the interior or peripheral region of a charging device and on the other hand for visualizing the cover or the flap from the outside.
  • the lid or the flap is provided in one embodiment of the invention partially with a disc of organic or inorganic glass or a transparent plastic film or formed by such a disc or a plastic film, which consists of a inorganic or organic transparent material.

  • there is an electronic control of the lighting which prevents the lighting means can be switched on, if lighting means of the motor vehicle are turned on, which serve the visualization of the motor vehicle from the outside for other road users, in particular low beam, High beam, tail light and / or parking light. In this way, unnecessary power consumption is avoided by the lighting means of the charging device.
  • the at least one illumination means of the charging device then lights up only when necessary.
  • the flap or the lid is designed to be partially transparent, specifically at least the edge region or side region of the flap or the lid. This will make the outlines of the flap or lid visible. This further facilitates the opening of the flap or the lid even in poor visibility.

  • Side wall or side walls preferably adjoin the region of the interior, which comprises the electrical contacts.
  • This arrangement of the illumination means also does not obstruct the access to the electrical contacts of the charging device or takes up any space in the region of the electrical contacts of the charging device. Excessive enlargement of the charging device by providing the illumination means is thus avoided.
  • two illumination means are arranged in opposite sides, a particularly suitable illumination of the interior is ensured. It is also possible to provide more than two illumination means, which are arranged distributed over the side or edge region of the interior, so as to achieve a uniform illumination of both the electrical contacts and the cover or the flap.

  • a corresponding light cone extends at least approximately perpendicular to a lateral wall of the interior of the charging device or parallel to Lid or flap. In this way, it is then generally achieved that both the electrical contacts and the lid or the flap are illuminated directly and not indirectly via light reflections, as a light cone always expands.
  • the charging device is integrated in a bumper and in particular in the rear bumper of an electric vehicle, since in principle sufficient space is available, which otherwise remains unused as a rule. In this area, the charging device is inconspicuous and therefore arranged hardly visible. Also adjacent to this area is regularly enough space available to accommodate the battery of an electric vehicle can. This area is therefore relatively difficult to find. It therefore makes sense, in particular in this case, to be able to illuminate the lid or the flap in accordance with the invention so as to be able to more easily locate the flap or the lid,

  • the lighting includes LEDs to minimize power consumption for the lighting.
  • the cover or the flap is designed to be partially reflective, in particular the non-transparent region. Reflecting means that there is an area. which reflects more strongly than the other area of the lid or flap. In this way, a symbol or a letter can be further improved to make it easier to find the lid or the flap.
  • the illumination consists of a luminous area, for example based on an OLED technique, which is preferably part of the flap or the lid.
  • the luminous surface is then in particular on the inside of the flap or the lid. Over the transparent area of the lid or the flap then light of the luminous surface, which radiates in the direction of the transparent area, can escape to the outside.
