[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0023] like Figures 1-6 As shown, this embodiment provides a high-strength automotive chassis screw, including a screw rod 1, a hexagonal screw head 3 on the screw rod 1, a nut 2 connected to the screw rod 1, and a protective nut 4 snapped onto the hexagonal screw head 3. The protective nut 4 protects the hexagonal screw head 3 from impacts that could affect disassembly. The protective nut 4 has a snap-fit ​​component 5 for fixing the hexagonal screw head 3. A buffer component 6 is connected to the nut 2. When an external force impacts, the buffer component 6 can buffer the impact force, thereby protecting the hexagonal screw head 3 from damage. A water-blocking ring 11 is provided on the lower surface of the protective nut 4. The water-blocking ring 11 can block water from the hexagonal screw head 3 and the screw rod 1. The screw rod 1, the hexagonal screw head 3, and the nut 2 are made of Q460 steel, a low-alloy high-strength steel with high strength characteristics.

[0024] like Figure 2As shown, the protective nut 4 has a connecting groove 7, the hexagonal screw head 3 has a snap-fit ​​groove 8, the connecting groove 7 has an installation groove 9, the snap-fit ​​assembly 5 includes a wedge block 501, the wedge block 501 is slidably snapped into the installation groove 9, and the wedge block 501 is snapped into the snap-fit ​​groove 8, a moving rod 502 is connected to the wedge block 501, the moving rod 502 is fixedly connected to the protective nut 4, the moving rod 502 is inserted into the protective nut 4, and a first spring 503 is sleeved on the moving rod 502, the two ends of the first spring 503 are respectively connected to the wedge block 501, The mounting slot 9 provides a fixed connection. When the protective nut 4 is engaged with the hexagonal screw head 3, it applies pressure to the wedge block 501. The wedge block 501 moves, compressing the first spring 503 and moving the moving rod 502. When the wedge block 501 aligns with the engaging slot 8, the elastic restoring force of the first spring 503 engages the wedge block 501 with the engaging slot 8, thus fixing the protective nut 4 to the hexagonal screw head 3. Moving the moving rod 502 and the wedge block 501 allows the screw sleeve to be removed, facilitating flexible disassembly and installation of the protective nut 4.

[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the protective nut 4 is provided with a sliding hole 10. The buffer assembly 6 includes a sliding rod 601, which is fixedly installed inside the sliding hole 10. A slider 602 is inserted into the sliding rod 601 and is slidably engaged inside the sliding hole 10. A buffer plate 603 is connected between the sliders 602. A second spring 604 is sleeved on the sliding rod 601. The two ends of the second spring 604 are fixedly connected to the slider 602 and the sliding hole 10, respectively. When the buffer plate 603 is subjected to an impact force, the buffer plate 603 drives the slider 602 to move, and the second spring 604 is compressed, thereby reducing a certain impact force and protecting the protective nut 4 and the hexagonal screw head 3.

[0026] In use, the screw 1 is connected to a suitable position, and the screw sleeve is engaged with the hexagonal screw head 3. This applies pressure to the wedge block 501, causing it to move. The first spring 503 is compressed, and the moving rod 502 moves. When the wedge block 501 aligns with the engaging groove 8, the elastic restoring force of the first spring 503 engages the wedge block 501 with the engaging groove 8, thus fixing the protective nut 4 to the hexagonal screw head 3. When the hexagonal screw head 3 is impacted, the buffer plate 603 is also impacted. The buffer plate 603 moves the slider 602, and the second spring 604 is compressed, thereby reducing the impact force and protecting the protective nut 4 and the hexagonal screw head 3.

[0027] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that this invention is not limited to the above embodiments.
