Abstract

The disclosure relates to a frictional brake element for a friction brake of a motor vehicle, in particular brake disk, having a main element which is manufactured in particular from grey cast iron and which has at least one wear protection layer applied to the main element and at least one intermediate layer situated between the wear protection layer and the main element. It is provided that the intermediate layer is a metallic intermediate layer applied by laser deposition welding.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A friction brake element for a friction brake disk of a motor vehicle, comprising:
a main element made of gray cast iron;
at least one antiwear layer applied to the main element; and
at least one intermediate layer located between the antiwear layer and the main element, wherein the at least one intermediate layer is a metallic intermediate layer applied by laser buildup welding,

wherein
the at least one antiwear layer is configured as one of ceramic coating and iron-based alloy, the at least one antiwear layer having embedded hard material particles consisting of carbides, oxides, nitrides or borides, and
a layer thickness of the at least one intermediate layer is at least twice an average particle size of the hard material particles embedded in the at least one antiwear layer.

2. The friction brake element as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one intermediate layer has an at least two-phase microstructure.

3. The friction brake element as claimed in claim 2 , wherein each of the respective phases of the at least two-phase microstructure makes up at least 5% by volume of the at least one intermediate layer.

4. The friction brake element as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one intermediate layer is one of a nickel-based alloy, a cobalt-based alloy, and an iron- based alloy.

5. The friction brake element as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one antiwear layer is an antiwear layer applied by one of thermal spraying on and laser buildup welding to the intermediate layer.

6. The friction brake element as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a surface of the at least one intermediate layer facing the at least one antiwear layer has been pretreated thermally.

7. A friction brake for a motor vehicle, having at least one brake disk and at least one movable brake pad assigned to the brake disk, wherein the brake disk is configured as friction brake element as claimed in claim 1 .

8. A process for producing a friction brake element for a friction brake of a motor vehicle, comprising:
providing a main element made of gray cast iron;
applying at least one metallic intermediate layer by laser buildup welding to the main element; and
providing at least one antiwear layer on a side of the at least one metallic intermediate layer opposite the main element,

wherein:
hard material particles are embedded in the at least one antiwear layer, and
the at least one intermediate layer is applied to the main element in such a way that a layer thickness of the at least one intermediate layer is at least twice an average particle size of the hard material particles embedded in the at least one antiwear layer.

9. The process as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the at least one intermediate layer is applied to the main element in such a way that it has an at least two-phase microstructure.
