2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, an outer hook and an inner hook (middle hook) of a sewing machine used for industrial purposes are made of a metal material such as ordinary carbon steel, and are provided with wear resistance and seizure resistance. It was used after being subjected to carburizing and quenching treatment, nitriding treatment, or hard chrome plating treatment.

As is apparent from FIG. 6, the samples of the sample Nos. 1 to 3 in the range of the present invention provided with the Cr-N compound coating layer have a friction coefficient of μ even when the pressing load P is increased. It is suitable because the increase is small and the seizure limit is high. On the other hand, in the conventional example in which the Cr-N-based compound coating layer is not provided, the friction coefficient μ rapidly increases at a low pressing load P,
It is not preferable because it causes seizure. (Experimental Example 2) Next, the abrasion resistance of the compound coating layer was evaluated.
Similarly, the test was performed using a pin-on-disk type tester.
