[0013] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the fixed structure includes a hook fixedly connected to the back of the connecting plate, and a grabbing groove is provided on the surface of the baffle. The side of the hook away from the connecting plate sequentially passes through the frame and the grabbing groove and extends to the top of the grabbing groove. The hook can be disconnected from the grabbing groove when the connecting plate moves backward due to impact.

At the same time, the impact force suffered by the frame can be effectively judged and the shielding structure can be released to shield and protect the driving position of the vehicle when excessive impact is sensed, thereby reducing the damage caused to the user by external debris.
[0016] 2. The front and rear buffer assemblies of the beach vehicle and the design method thereof first contact the impact object through the elastic components on the surface of the connecting plate. The elastic components weaken the impact force by utilizing the elasticity of the material, and can preliminarily reduce the external impact, while also protecting the impact object itself.
[0017] 3. The front and rear buffer assemblies of the beach vehicle and the design method thereof squeeze the shrink tube through the movable block, and the shrink tube moves toward the inside of the sleeve and compresses the air inside the sleeve. The shrink tube is supported during the increase of air pressure, which can partially eliminate the impact force. At the same time, the compression springs sleeved on the surface of the shrink tube and the sleeve can deform when squeezed and use the deformation force to deal with the impact force, which can weaken the impact force for a second time and greatly improve the supporting effect of the connecting plate.
[0018] 4. The front and rear buffer assemblies of the beach vehicle and their design methods use a sleeve to drive the gear to rotate by using a toothed plate, and the gear drives the swing rod to rotate. The swing rod squeezes the spring plate to deform the spring plate and use the elastic force to reduce the impact force. When the spring plate is deformed to the maximum stroke, the sleeve can be limited. 5. The front and rear buffer assemblies of the beach vehicle and the design method thereof can drive the traction plate to move synchronously during the swing of the swing rod. The traction plate pulls the bellows to diffuse the air pressure inside the bellows and use the tension of the gas compression to assist in weakening the impact force. 6. The front and rear buffer assemblies of the beach vehicle and the design method thereof can shield external debris and reduce damage caused by splashing debris by setting a baffle that uses the elastic force of the support plate to reset and swing. At the same time, the buffer pads set on the surface of the baffle can protect the internal users and reduce the collision damage caused to the users when they are bounced by impact.
[0019] 7. The front and rear buffer assemblies of the beach vehicle and the design method thereof can position the baffle plate by using the elastic force of the damper by setting hooks and grabbing grooves, thereby preventing the baffle plate from affecting the normal driving of the vehicle frame and effectively controlling the release strength of the baffle plate.
[0020] 8. By introducing the ST-GAT model, combined with the graph attention network and LSTM network, the spatial and temporal dependencies in the sensor data are effectively captured. The graph attention network can handle the complex relationships between nodes, while the LSTM is good at processing time series data.
[0021] 9. Optimize model parameters by introducing the firefly algorithm. The firefly algorithm is a global optimization algorithm that uses the mutual attraction mechanism between fireflies to avoid falling into the local optimum, thereby finding the global optimal parameter combination of the model and improving the prediction accuracy of the model.
[0022] 10. The data from different sensors are represented as a graph structure through the Graph Attention Network (GAT), and the data from different sensors are fused using the attention mechanism to ensure effective interaction and fusion between different types of data.

Specifically, when the front and rear buffer assemblies of the beach vehicle and the design method thereof are in operation / in use: the buffer structure 2 on both sides of the vehicle can ensure the structural strength of the vehicle and prevent the vehicle from being subjected to dry collision. When the vehicle suffers a slight collision, the elastic component 8 on the surface of the connecting plate 7 on the outside of the vehicle first contacts the impact object. The elastic component 8 weakens the impact force by utilizing the elasticity of the material and drives the connecting plate 7 to move toward one side of the frame 1. When the connecting plate 7 squeezes the shrink tube 11 by utilizing the movable block 22, the shrink tube 11 moves toward the inside of the sleeve 12 and compresses the air inside the sleeve 12. The shrink tube 11 is supported during the increase of air pressure, and the impact force can be partially eliminated. At the same time, the compression spring 13 sleeved on the surface of the shrink tube 11 and the sleeve 12 can deform when squeezed and use the deformation force to synchronously weaken the impact force. During the movement of the sleeve 12, the sleeve 12 uses the tooth plate 15 to push the gear 17 to rotate, and the gear 17 drives the swing rod 18 to rotate. The swing rod 18 squeezes the spring plate 19 to deform the spring plate 19 and use the elastic force to reduce the impact force. When the spring plate 19 is deformed to the maximum stroke, the sleeve 12 can be limited. During the swing of the swing rod 18, the traction plate 20 can be driven to move synchronously. The traction plate 20 pulls the bellows 21 to diffuse the gas pressure inside the bellows 21 and use the tension of the gas compression to assist in weakening the impact force. Through the above-mentioned multiple weakening methods, the frame 1 can be prevented from being damaged by ordinary collisions. When the frame 1 is subjected to a strong collision and the connecting plate 7 continues to move to one side of the frame 1, the connecting plate 7 contacts the frame 1 and the final impact The impact force is fed back to the frame 1 for distribution, and the connecting plate 7 drives the hook 26 to move synchronously during the movement. When the connecting plate 7 moves to the maximum stroke and contacts the frame 1, the hook 26 can slide inside the grabbing groove 27 and disengage from the baffle 23. In the process of separation from the grab hook, the baffle 23 is affected by the elastic force of the support plate 24 and quickly swings around the pin shaft inside the movable block 22 as the axis. When the baffle 23 moves to the outside of the driving position of the frame 1, it achieves the effect of shielding external impact objects to prevent the user from being impacted by debris.
