[0029] As attached Figure 7As shown, a rotating hole a1 is provided on the door handle panel a. The distance from the end face a2 of different panels a to the rotating hole a1 is different. In order to ensure that the panel a can be accurately installed on the assembly tooling / product 7, it is necessary to ensure that the rotating hole a1 is accurately positioned on the material position 11 of the panel. In this embodiment, the end face a2 of the panel a is used as the reference surface for positioning the rotating hole a1. Therefore, the distance between the limiting plate 6 and the panel feeding track 1 can be achieved by adjusting the limiting adjustment component 5.
[0030] In this embodiment, the automatic feeding mechanism for the long panel of the door handle works as follows: the limiting adjustment component 5 is adjusted according to the distance from the turning hole a1 of panel a to the end face a2 of the panel, thereby adjusting the distance between the limiting plate 6 and the panel feeding track 1 to the target distance; the end face a2 of panel a is attached to the limiting plate 6 and placed on the panel feeding track 1; the panel feeding track 1 conveys panel a to the panel loading position 11; the panel lifting component 4 lifts panel a to detach it from the panel feeding track 1; and the panel conveying component 3 transfers the lifted panel a and installs it onto the assembly fixture / product 7.
