Abstract
The present invention provides a piston ring and a combined structure of a piston ring and a ring groove of piston having a hard carbon film which is excellent in wear resistance, scuffing resistance, cohesion resistance relative to the piston material and in peeling resistance. The above-mentioned object of the invention is achieved by continuously forming a hard carbon film 2 containing one or more elements selected from Si, W and Ni, or all of the outer peripheral surface 4, the inner peripheral surface 5, the top surface 6 and the bottom surface 7 of the piston ring 1. The hard carbon film contains Si and has an Si-containing film serving as a primer film for the hard carbon film. A Cr film should preferably be formed as primer film for the hard carbon film. It is desirable to have an ion-plating film as a primer film formed on the outer peripheral surface of the piston ring. The combined structure of the piston ring and the ring groove of the invention comprises the aforementioned piston ring and a ring groove made of steel or an aluminum alloy.
