  • Patent number: 9624975
    Abstract: The sliding member according to the present invention includes: a base material; and a sliding film that covers a surface of the base material and constitutes a sliding surface, and is used under a wet condition where lubricant oil exists. The sliding film according to the present invention is a laminated film that includes: an underlying layer formed on the surface of the base material; and an outermost layer formed at least on a part of the underlying layer. This outermost layer is characterized by including specific boron-containing amorphous carbon (specific B-DLC) that contains 4-50% B and 5-50% H when the outermost layer as a whole is 100 at %. This specific B-DLC itself wears away during the sliding to smooth the sliding surface, and an excellent low friction property is exhibited. The underlying layer of the specific B-DLC contributes to improvement in the wear resistance property of the sliding film.

  • Publication number: 20160115414
    Abstract: [Technical Problem] An object is to provide a sliding system which can drastically reduce the friction coefficient on a sliding portion by means of a novel combination of a chromium nitride film and a lubricant oil. [Solution to Problem] The sliding system according to the present invention includes: a pair of sliding members having sliding surfaces that can relatively move while facing each other; and a lubricant oil that can be interposed between the sliding surfaces facing each other. At least one of the sliding surfaces is formed as a coating surface of a chromium nitride film, and the lubricant oil contains an oil-soluble molybdenum compound that has a chemical structure of a trinuclear of Mo.

  • Publication number: 20160010021
    Abstract: A sliding machine includes: a pair of sliding members having sliding surfaces that oppose each other and are able to move relative to each other; and a lubricating oil which is able to be interposed between the opposed sliding surfaces, in which at least one of the sliding surfaces is covered with a chromium (Cr)-containing amorphous carbon film (chromium-coating DLC), and the lubricating oil contains an oil-soluble molybdenum compound having a chemical structure formed from a trinuclear material of molybdenum (Mo). Specifically, the chromium-coating DLC contains, when the entirety of the film is assumed to be 100 at. %, 1% to 49% of Cr, 0% to 30% of hydrogen (H), carbon (C) as a remainder, and impurities. The lubricating oil contains 5 ppm to 800 ppm of the oil-soluble molybdenum compound in terms of Mo mass ratio with respect to the entirety of the lubricating oil.

  • Patent number: 8582599
    Abstract: A translator for coupling a first IPv4 network and a second IPv6 network having different addressing architectures for IP addresses so as not to exhaust the IP addresses of one of the two networks, a network system using the translator, and a network coupling method. When a packet is transferred from the IPv6 network to the IPv4 network, the translator assigns any of previously prepared IPv4 addresses to an IPv6 address stored in a source storing field of the IPv6 packet. The assigned address is stored in a source storing field of an IPv4 packet. A packet translation unit assigns the foregoing IPv6 address to an IPv4 address stored in a destination storing field of the IPv4 packet, when a packet is transferred from the IPv4 network to the IPv6 network, and stores this address in a destination storing field of the IPv6 packet.
