In the connecting rod 5, a resin coating layer
Sliding property is improved by C 1 and C 2 to prevent galling, seizure, etc., and the resin coating layers C 1 and C 2 have low rigidity and appropriate flexibility, and thus have good conformability. In addition, even if local surface pressure (edge load) is applied,
The deformation of the coating layers C 1 and C 2 can reduce the surface pressure applied to the titanium or titanium alloy base material. By impregnating this coating layer with a lubricant such as molybdenum disulfide, the dynamic friction coefficient can be reduced and the durability can be further improved.

For example, in the case of the split connecting rod 5 as shown in FIG. 2, even if the rod 13 and the cap 14 are abutted with high accuracy so as to be flush with each other, as shown in FIG. It is unavoidable that a gap t 0 of γ occurs. However, in the case of the connecting rod 5 of the present invention, since the thickness t 1 of the side coating layers C 1 and C 2 is set to about 60 μm,
Even when lateral pressure is applied from the adjacent connecting rod member or crank web Z, the coating layer C 1 on the side of the rod 13 or the cap 14 that projects laterally is deformed and the thickness of the coating layer C 1 is slightly reduced. If it decreases, the adjacent member Z comes into contact with the coating layer C 2 on the other side. Therefore, it is possible to prevent extreme one-sided contact.

Also. Even in an experiment in which sliding was performed with oil running out, even if the resin coating layer was damaged, due to the presence of the Ni layer, the seizure time is longer than that of the titanium material that directly slides, and the seizure is similar to that of carburized steel. It was time.

(Effects of the Invention) Since the present invention improves the slidability, conformability, etc., which were lacking in the titanium material by the fluorine resin coating as described above, a lightweight titanium material is used as a motion member having a sliding portion. Therefore, the use of the titanium material as a component that needs to be lightweight for speeding up can be expanded. Moreover, the sliding surface of the titanium material is Ni-plated, Ni-plated, and the surface of the Ni-plated layer is subjected to shot peening to form an uneven surface, and then a fluorine resin coating is applied. Increasing the adhesive force of the fluorine-based resin coating layer, and improving the peel resistance from the Ni layer of the coating layer, compressive residual stress occurs on the surface of the Ni layer by shot peening,
Since the fatigue strength of the Ni layer is improved, the resistance to peeling of the Ni layer from the titanium material is improved, and the durability of the connecting rod is improved.

Further, particularly in a member such as a large end portion of a connecting rod in which a step difference is unavoidable on the sliding surface, it is possible to prevent uneven contact of the step portion due to the buffering property of the resin coating layer. It is possible to prevent wear and impact of the contacting members.
