CYLINDER LINERS

CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION

[0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. provisional application serial number 61/497,290 filed June 15, 201 1, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

[0002] This invention relates generally to coated cylinder liners and methods of forming the same.

2. Description of the Prior Art

[0003] Cylinders of internal combustion engines often include a sleeve or liner providing an inner surface of the cylinder. The cylinder liner includes a substrate that can be fitted to the engine block to form the cylinder. The inner surface of the cylinder liner faces toward a piston and provides an interface or sliding surface for the piston or piston rings during operation of the internal combustion engine. Thus, the substrate of the cylinder liner is typically formed of a hard, wear resistant material. The cylinder liner is also preferably formed of a material capable of handling the extreme conditions encountered during a combustion cycle, including high temperatures and pressures. In attempt to improve wear resistance provided by the cylinder liner, coatings have been applied to the inner surface of the substrate. Examples of the wear resistant coatings include diamond-like carbon (DLC) coatings, such as those disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,249,554 to Tamor et al.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0004] One aspect of the invention provides a cylinder liner comprising a substrate and a coating. The substrate includes an inner surface extending around a center axis, and the coating is disposed on the inner surface of the substrate. The coating comprises a mixture of hydrogen, carbon, silicon, and germanium, and includes an intermediate layer and a protective layer. The intermediate layer includes, in weight percent (wt. %) of the intermediate layer, 40.0 to 60.0 wt. % carbon, 15.0 to 35.0 wt. % silicon, and 15.0 to 35.0 wt. % germanium. The protective layer includes, in weight percent (wt. %) of the protective layer, at least 90.0 wt. % carbon. The weight of the coating, or layer of the coating, does not include the weight of any hydrogen present in the coating or layer.

[0005] Another aspect of the invention provides a method of forming a cylinder liner. The method first includes providing a substrate including an inner surface extending around a center axis. The method next includes depositing a coating on the inner surface of the substrate. The depositing step includes applying a vapor containing carbon, silicon, and germanium to the substrate to form an intermediate layer of the coating, wherein the intermediate layer includes, in weight percent (wt. %) of the intermediate layer, 40.0 to 60.0 wt. % carbon, 15.0 to 35.0 wt. % silicon, and 15.0 to 35.0 wt. % germanium. The depositing step also includes applying a vapor containing carbon to the intermediate layer to form a protective layer of the coating, wherein the protective layer includes, in weight percent (wt. %) of the protective layer, at least 90.0 wt. % carbon.

[0006] The cylinder liner is typically used in internal combustion engines, wherein the coating of the cylinder liner provides an interface between a piston and the substrate to protect and prevent wear on the substrate. The composition and characteristics of the coating provide improved wear resistance and strength, compared to other coatings applied to cylinder liners, and thus improves the overall performance of the cylinder liner. Further, the coating is chemically inert and thus provides a barrier to sulfuric acid and other acids resulting from unburned fuels, especially in diesel engine applications.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0014] One aspect of the invention provides a cylinder liner 20 of an internal combustion engine with a germanium containing coating 22 that provides improved wear resistance and strength during a combustion cycle. Figure 1 shows the cylinder liner 20 according to one exemplary embodiment of the invention. The cylinder liner 20 may be fixed to an engine block (not shown) to provide a cylinder, or otherwise disposed to form the cylinder of the internal combustion engine.

[0015] The cylinder liner 20 includes a substrate 24 upon which the coating 22 is disposed. The substrate 24 includes an inner surface 26 facing and extending circumferentially around a center axis A and presenting a bore for receiving a piston 28 and providing a combustion chamber, as shown in Figure 1. The inner surface 26 presents an inner diameter extending through the center axis A. During a combustion cycle and operation of the internal combustion engine, the inner surface 26 faces toward the piston 28, and the piston 28 reciprocates along the center axis A.

[0016] The substrate 24 of the cylinder liner 20 also includes an outer surface

30 facing opposite and parallel to the inner surface 26, a top surface 32 extending circumferentially around the center axis A, and a bottom surface (not shown) facing opposite and parallel to the top surface 32. The inner surface 26 and outer surface 30 are typically parallel to the center axis A, and the top surface 32 and the bottom surface each extend from the inner surface 26 to the outer surface 30 and are perpendicular to the center axis A.

[0017] The substrate 24 is formed of a metal material capable of providing a long service life under extreme conditions of the internal combustion engine during operation, such as high temperatures and pressures. Examples of materials used to form the substrate 24 include steel, cast iron, aluminum, and aluminum alloys. In one embodiment, the substrate 24 provides an exceptional hardness. The substrate 24 also has a high heat transfer coefficient such heat can be efficiently transferred from the combustion chamber to a coolant disposed outward of the outer surface 30.

[0018] The germanium containing coating 22 is disposed on the inner surface

26 of the substrate 24 and presents the innermost surface of the cylinder liner 20. The coating 22 provides an interface between the piston 28 and the substrate 24 to protect and prevent wear on the substrate 24. The coating 22 may also provide a sliding surface for the piston 28, or the piston rings 34, as shown in Figure 1.

[0019] The coating 22 typically includes amorphous carbon, sp 2 , and sp 3 hybridized carbon atoms and therefore is referred to as a diamond-like carbon (DLC). In this embodiment, the coating 22 is flexible and includes at least one property characteristic of a diamond. The coating 22 typically has a thickness t of not greater than 100 microns and includes multiple layers each having a thickness of not greater than 30 microns.

[0020] The coating 22 preferably comprises a mixture of carbon, silicon, germanium, and hydrogen. The coating 22 also preferably has a graded composition, meaning that the layers can have compositions different from one another, and that one or more of the layers can have a composition varying along the thickness of the layer. The weight of the coating, or layer of the coating, referred to throughout the present description, does not include the weight of any hydrogen present in the coating or layer.

[0021] In one embodiment, the coating 22 includes a base layer 36 disposed directly on the inner surface 26 of the substrate 24, as shown in Figures 1, 1A, and 4. However, one or more other types of layers may be disposed between the base layer 36 and the substrate 24. The base layer 36 typically includes a mixture of carbon, silicon, and germanium. In one embodiment, the base layer 36 includes, in weight percent (wt. %) of the base layer 36, 50.0 to 70.0 wt. % carbon, 30.0 to 50.0 wt. % silicon, and not greater than 20.0 wt. % germanium. In another embodiment, the base layer 36 includes 55.0 to 65.0 wt. % carbon, 35.0 to 45.0 wt. % silicon, and not greater than 10.0 wt. % germanium. In yet another embodiment, the base layer 36 includes 60.0 to 65.0 wt. % carbon, 35.0 to 40.0 wt. % silicon, and not greater than 1.0 wt. % germanium. In yet another embodiment, the base layer 36 includes 62.4 wt. % carbon, 38.0 wt. % silicon, and 0.0 wt. % germanium. Each disclosed range or amount of an element may be used in combination with any other disclosed range or amount of the other elements. The base layer 36 typically has a thickness t b , as shown in Figure 1A, of not greater than 30 microns. The composition of the base layer 36 may vary along the thickness tb, relative to the distance from the inner surface 26 of the substrate 24.

[0022] The coating 22 also includes an intermediate layer 38, which may be disposed directly on the inner surface 26 of the substrate 24, directly on the base layer 36, or directly on another type of layer. The intermediate layer 38 typically includes a mixture of carbon, silicon, and germanium. In one embodiment, the intermediate layer 38 includes, in weight percent (wt. %) of the intermediate layer 38, 40.0 to 60.0 wt. % carbon, 15.0 to 35.0 wt. % silicon, and 15.0 to 35.0 wt. % germanium. In another embodiment, the intermediate layer 38 includes 45.0 to 55.0 wt. % carbon, 20.0 to 30.0 wt. % silicon, and 20.0 to 30.0 wt. % germanium. In yet another embodiment, the intermediate layer 38 includes 45.0 to 50.0 wt. % carbon, 25.0 to 30.0 wt. % silicon, and 20.0 to 25.0 wt. % germanium. In yet another embodiment, the intermediate layer 38 includes 49.8 wt. % carbon, 25.9 wt. % silicon, and 24.5 wt. % germanium. In yet another embodiment, the intermediate layer 38 includes 49.7 wt. % carbon, 26.0 wt. % silicon, and 24.6 wt. % germanium. Each disclosed range or amount of an element may be used in combination with any other disclosed range or amount of the other elements. The intermediate layer 38 typically has a thickness , as shown in Figure 1A, of not greater than 30 microns. The composition of the intermediate layer 38 may vary along the thickness t i; relative to the distance from the inner surface 26 of the substrate 24.

[0023] The coating 22 also includes a protective layer 40, which may be disposed directly on the intermediate layer 38, or directly on another type of layer. In one embodiment, the protective layer 40 includes, in weight percent (wt. %) of the protective layer 40, at least 90.0 wt. % carbon, not greater than 10.0 wt. % silicon, and not greater than 10.0 wt. % germanium. In another embodiment, the protective layer 40 includes at least 95.0 wt. % carbon, not greater than 5.0 wt. % silicon, and not greater than 5.0 wt. % germanium. In yet another embodiment, the protective layer 40 includes 100.0 wt. % carbon. Each disclosed range or amount of an element may be used in combination with any other disclosed range or amount of the other elements. The protective layer 40 typically has a thickness t p , as shown in Figure 1A, of not greater than 30 microns. The composition of the protective layer 40 may vary along the thickness t p , relative to the distance from the inner surface 26 of the substrate 24.

[0024] The protective layer 40 of the germanium containing coating 22 typically presents the innermost surface of the cylinder liner 20 and provides the interface between the piston 28 and the substrate 24. The protective layer 40 of the coating 22 may provide the sliding surface for the piston 28, or the piston rings 34, as shown in Figure 1. In addition to providing wear resistance, the coating 22 is also chemically inert and thus provides a barrier to sulfuric acid and other acids resulting from unburned fuels, especially in diesel engine applications.

[0025] The coating 22 can include other types of layers in addition to the intermediate layer 38, protective layer 40, and optional base layer 36. Further, each layer of the coating 22 can include trace amounts of impurities or small amounts of other elements in addition to the carbon, silicon, and germanium.

[0026] Another aspect of the invention includes a method of forming the cylinder liner 20 with the germanium containing coating 22. The method includes applying the coating 22 to the inner surface 26 of the substrate 24, typically by a thermal spraying or vapor deposition technique. For example, the coating 22 may be deposited on the inner surface 26 of the substrate 24 by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) and/or plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition (PACVD) using a germanium containing gas as a precursor mixed with other hydrocarbon gases. In one embodiment, the depositing step includes employing a hollow-cathode discharge.

[0027] The method first includes providing the substrate 24 including the inner surface 26 facing and extending circumferentially around the center axis A; and then depositing a coating 22 on the inner surface 26 of the substrate 24. In one embodiment, the depositing step includes providing a vapor containing carbon, silicon, and germanium, and then applying the vapor to the substrate 24 to form the intermediate layer 38 of the coating 22, wherein the vapor and the intermediate layer 38 include, in weight percent (wt. %) of the vapor or intermediate layer 38, 40.0 to 60.0 wt. % carbon, 15.0 to 35.0 wt. % silicon, and 15.0 to 35.0 wt. % germanium. The depositing step may also include providing a vapor containing carbon, and applying the vapor to the intermediate layer 38 to form the protective layer 40 of the coating 22, wherein the vapor and the protective layer 40 include, in weight percent (wt. %) of the vapor or protective layer 40, at least 90.0 wt. % carbon.

[0028] In another embodiment, the depositing step further includes providing a vapor containing carbon and silicon, and applying the vapor to the substrate 24 to form the base layer 36, wherein the vapor and base layer 36 include, in weight percent (wt. %) of the vapor or base layer 36, 50.0 to 70.0 wt. % carbon, 30.0 to 50. wt. % silicon, and not greater than 20.0 wt. % germanium. The step of forming the base layer 36 is performed before applying the intermediate layer 38 and the protective layer 40 to the substrate 24.

The weight of the layers does not include the weight of any hydrogen present in the layers.

[0031] In this embodiment, there is no base layer 36 disposed between the intermediate layer 38 and the inner surface 26 of the substrate 24. Figure 2 is a photomicrograph of the coating 22 of Example 1 disposed on the inner surface 26 of the substrate 24. The composition of the coating 22 varies relative to the distance from the inner surface 26 of the substrate 24.
