A piston ring with a hard plating and a preparation method therefor are provided. An OD surface of the piston ring includes an interlayer, a gradient metal nitride layer and a DLC repetitive unit layer sequentially from bottom to top; one DLC unit layer in the DLC repetitive unit layer sequentially includes a DLC layer and a metal-doped DLC layer; and chrome plating of a side face of the piston ring is a chrome plating on a side face of a piston ring matrix. The repetitively circulating DLC layers and metal-doped DLC layers are a combination of a micron-thickness layer and a nanometer-thickness layer to form a micro-nano layered structure, so that the binding force between each plating is enhanced and the internal stress of the plating is reduced; and meanwhile, metal doping in the DLC layer can effectively reduce the plating stress and solve the problem of plating peeling.

Piston ring with hard plating, and preparation method therefor

The present invention relates to a diamond-like coating for piston ring surfaces, comprising, an underlayer, a gradient layer and an AM layer, wherein the AM layer is a diamond-like coating doped with doping elements. The doping elements are one or a combination of at least two selected from the group consisting of Cr, Si and Ti, and the content thereof shows a cyclical change in a form of a sine wave fluctuation along with the thickness change of the AM layer. As compared with the conventional single-layer structure or gradient layer structure, the AM layer of such diamond-like coating has a multi-cycle transition structure since the content of the doping elements in the AM layer of such diamond-like coating shows a cyclical change in a sine wave fluctuation form. On the basis of having high wear-resistant and low friction coefficient, it is beneficial to decrease the internal stress of the coating, increase the tenacity of the coating, ensure the increase of the thickness of diamond-like coating, and improve the durability of piston ring of diamond-like coating at the same time.
