DE 102009052540 A1 UPAB: 20110527 NOVELTY - The device e.g. plow (10), has a plow blade (120) comprising a working surface (40) that is brought into contact with soil to be treated. The working surface is partially provided with a layer that is made of diamond-like carbon. Another layer is arranged between the working surface and the former layer, and a mixing zone is formed between the two layers, where material of the former layer passes into material of the latter layer in the mixing zone. The two layers comprise a dopant i.e. metal, where the former layer comprise hydrogen. USE - Soil treatment device such as plow, harrow e.g. rotary harrow and disk harrow, and ripper (all claimed) for use in an agricultural field. Can also be used for a spade, a rake and grassland finger weeder. ADVANTAGE - The working surface is provided partly with the layer that is made of diamond-like carbon, so that abrasion resistance is increased, and friction between the working surface and the soil is reduced, thus lowering energy consumption of the device while increasing working speed of the device. The device is operated for long time even in unfavorable weather conditions.
