    “SLIDING ELEMENT AND COMBINATION OF A SLIDING ELEMENT
    Technical field of the present invention [001] The present invention relates to a sliding element, in particular a piston ring, comprising a coating and a combination of a conjugated operating element.
    [002] In numerous technical applications there are sliding elements in sliding contact with operating elements. The combination of a piston ring and a cylinder liner can be considered as a typical application. If the cylinders or cylinder liners are, for example, made of aluminum-silicon alloys, which is the case especially in spark ignition engines, DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating systems have proved their value in relation to wear and friction loss. However, the known systems of DLC layers need to be improved in terms of service life and suitability for use with highly overloaded diesel engines or spark ignition engines, which generally have steel-based cylinder liners. Due to significantly higher cylinder pressures and, in particular, in combination with direct injection, there is a greater proportion of mixed friction conditions. The decisive factor for the inadequacy of DLC coating systems for situations of this type is considered to be the low layer thickness, which is generally less than 5 pm.
    Description of the state of the art [003] DE 10 2005 063 123 B3 discloses a DLC coating with a layer of
    Petition 870190011017, of 02/01/2019, p. 9/19
    2/8 sliding contact. With respect to greater layer thicknesses, PVD coatings are also known, in particular based on CrN which comprise layer thicknesses of 10 to 30 µm. Although these result in an improvement in service life, there is a deterioration in losses of friction and wear resistance, especially in the case of insufficient lubrication, and loss of abrasion resistance. On the other hand, due to their amorphous structure, DLC layer systems have the advantage of having substantial chemical inactivity with respect to metal surfaces and, consequently, have an extremely low tendency to adhere to the conjugate operating element.
    [004] DE 296 05 666 U1 refers to a component in the region of an internal combustion engine that is coated with a layer of metal-free amorphous carbon, whose hardness profile is gradual over the thickness of the layer.
    [005] DE 10 2008 016 864 B3 discloses a piston ring comprising an adhesive layer, a layer of amorphous carbon containing metal and a layer of metal-free amorphous carbon extending from the inside to the outside.
    [006] The document WO 2009/106201 A1 refers to a component of an internal combustion engine, in which are present on a substrate, a layer of DLC adhesion agent, a functional DLC layer and a contact DLC layer slider.
    [007] Finally, WO 2006/125683 A1 describes a piston ring comprising a layer with an element of the groups 1VB, VB or V1B, an intermediate layer with a
    Petition 870190011017, of 02/01/2019, p. 10/19
    3/8 diamond-like nanocomposite composition and a DLC layer extending from the inside to the outside.
    [008] Finally, US 2008/0220257 A1 refers to a coating on a metal substrate that, from the inside out, has an adhesive layer, a carbon layer with a tetrahedral structure and an amorphous carbon layer.
    Description of the present invention [009] The invention is based on the objective of providing a sliding element, in particular a piston ring which, especially when used in diesel engines or spark ignition engines highly overloaded with, for example, elements iron-based operating systems, meet the requirements with regard to maintenance of life and friction losses. A suitable combination of a sliding element and a combined operating element will also be disclosed.
    [0010] This objective is achieved by the sliding element described in claim 1.
    [0011] This sliding element is primarily characterized by a combination of a CrN layer and a DLC layer on the outside. The DLC layer is either metal-free or comprises a metal-containing substructure and a metal-free upper DLC layer. In other words, the DLC layer is at least partially free of metal and comprises, especially on the outer surface, a DLC layer free of metal. In addition, extensive testing has shown that the described coating exhibits particularly good characteristics when a layer is provided

    4/8
    Me (CxNy) as an intermediate layer between the CrN layer and the DLC layer. Tests with this layer structure have shown that the wear characteristics on the sliding element, in particular a piston ring, are improved compared to the known structure comprising an adhesive Cr layer and an upper DLC layer. In this way, the service life can be significantly improved. Tests have also shown that it is also possible to significantly reduce the coefficient of relative friction. Thus, in general, the layer structure described can provide an improved sliding element. It should be noted that the CrN layer is preferably applied to the piston base material without an adhesive layer, for example, through metallic vapor deposition or sputtering. However, in special applications, the CrN layer can be applied to the base material of the sliding element by means of an adhesive layer.
    [0012] For the sake of clarity, it should be mentioned that Me refers to metal which can be, for example, tungsten, chromium, titanium or silicon. In addition, carbon and nitrogen can be present in the layer described in almost any proportion, that is, both x and y can be within the range of 0 to 99%, in atoms. Furthermore, in particular in at least some areas, the coating can be provided on at least one working surface. In addition, the coating can extend to the transition of the bearing surfaces and to surfaces adjacent to the bearing surfaces. These are, for example, the running edges of a piston ring.

    5/8 [0013] Preferred developments are described in the other claims.
    [0014] For the hardness of the CrN layer or for the substructure, values between 1100 and 1900 HV 0.002 were found to be adequate. This modality can be combined with a hardness of the metal-free DLC layer from 1700 to 2900 HV 0.002 and / or a hardness of the metal-containing DLC layer from 800 to 1600 HV 0.002.
    [0015] It is also expected that the particularly good properties of the DLC layer, in particular the metal-containing layer and / or the metal-free DLC layer, can be obtained when they contain hydrogen.
    The metal-containing DLC layer may also advantageously comprise nanocrystalline precipitations of metal carbides, such as, for example, WC, CRC, SiC, GeC or TiC.
    [0017] Advantageous properties have also been identified for thickness from 1 to 30 pm, thickness of a maximum of 2 total layer from 5 to 40 pm.
    [0018] In roughness, in order to improve CrN layers with a Me layer (CxNy) with a pm and a thickness with respect to further properties, it is preferable that the top layer that forms the surface has roughness parameters Rz <5 pm and / or Rpk <0.8 pm.
    0019]
    In a proven way, the metal-containing DLC layer and / or the metal-free DLC layer can be produced by PA-CVD processes.
    [0020] The invention also relates to a combination of at least one sliding element as described above, with an
    Petition 870190011017, of 02/01/2019, p. 13/19
    6/8 combined operation, in particular a cylinder or cylinder liner of an internal combustion engine, in particular a diesel engine or a spark ignition engine highly a contact surface working element is iron-based.
    Brief description of the drawings [0021] The following will describe a preferred exemplary embodiment with reference to the drawings, which show:
    Figure 1 illustrates a layered structure according to the invention;
    Figure 2 illustrates the relative wear of a piston ring and cylinder liner, and
    Figure 3 illustrates the relative friction coefficient of different layer systems. Detailed description of an exemplary preferred embodiment of the invention [0022] As Figure 1 shows, on the base material 10 of the sliding element a layer of CrN 12 is applied. The adhesive layer 14 shown in Figure 1 need not necessarily be provided. In particular, this is preferably omitted. By means of an intermediate layer Me (CxNy) 16, a DLC layer 18 is provided on the outer side, with a metal-free DLC layer on the outer side.
    [0023] With a structure of this type, without the adhesive layer 14, tests were carried out with comparative examples.
    [0024] The table shows the layer systems used.

    [0025] Here, the DLC series system is a standard DLC layer system without CrN. These layer systems were applied to a piston ring, and the tribological behavior investigated in combination with a smoothed cast iron cylinder liner in a lubricated state. Figure 2 shows the relative wear values for the piston ring (at the top) and for the cylinder liner. The percentage values shown indicate the percentage of the original DLC layer remaining after the end of the test. If this value is more than 100 percent, in addition to the DLC layer, the CrN or CrON layer has also been at least partially eroded. The highest wear value is used as a reference value for the
    wear relative gives shirt of cylinder and, therefore, defined how 100 percent. •[0026] How show the Figure 2, the according coating with the invention, with a
    intermediate Me (CxNy) layer has the least relative wear. In the case of cylinder liner wear, only the known DLC coating results in a lower value. However, wear on the cylinder liner is also

    8/8 an acceptable range for the example according to the present invention.
    [0027] Additional experiments were carried out with the friction coefficients and the results are shown in Figure 3. Here, the example according to the present invention has the lowest relative friction coefficient. Thus, this requirement is also met, in addition to the requirement for comparatively low wear and therefore a long service life.
