I am guessing that english is not your first language.

That is fine.

 

Are you looking for 3d models of screws or just images showing screws?

There are a number of good tutorials about making 3D bolts/screws using plain AutoCAD. Just Goolge "autocad"+"3D"+"screw". Links to a few of these tutorials have been posted here in the past. Use the Search feature above and don't forget to check out similar posts as indicated below.

Same here. The M2, M3... indicates the diameter of the thread.

 

this 1.5 is the same?

 

Is the pitch - the distance from one crest to the next. Standard thread specifications.

 

what is measures of triangle?

 

60°, 60°, 60° x the pitch by the depth indicated in Machinery's Handbook reference. Request the file and you can measure everything yourself. You should have a reference book by your side.

 

I know make screws on Inventor...

If you have Inventor I would make an iPart and then simply change the specs as needed for each size. If you need as dwg then simply go to Applications>AEC Exchange and Save As DWG Solids. Far far easier in Inventor, pure torture in AutoCAD if you need more than one size.

After giving it a bit more thought - even easier, simply use the Content Center fasteners rather than creating an iPart. Create an iFeature of a thread and then as you need any particular fastener replace the CC cosmetic thread with the iFeature thread feature.
