Foreword
This translation has been made based on the original Japanese Industrial Standard
revised by the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry through deliberations at
the Japanese Industrial Standards Committee as the result of proposal for revision
of Japanese Industrial Standard submitted by Japan Gear Manufacturers Association
(JGMA)/J apanese Standards Association (JSA) with the draft being attached, based
on the provision of Article 12 Clause 1 of the Industrial Standardization Law applicable
to the case of revision by the provision of Article 14.
Consequently JIS B 0003: 1989 is replaced with this Standard.
This JIS document is protected by the Copyright Law.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some parts of this Standard may conflict
with a patent right, application for a patent after opening to the public or utility
model right. The relevant Minister and the Japanese Industrial Standards Committee
are not responsible for identifying the patent right, application for a patent after

JAPANESE INDUSTRIAL STANDARD JIS B 0003 : 2012

Technical drawings-Gears

In troduction
This Japanese Industrial Standard was established in 1956 and has gone through
five revisions to this day. The last revision was made in 1989, and the revision at this
time is to respond to the revisions of related standards thereafter.
The corresponding International Standard has not been established at this point.

1 Scope
This Standard specifies the technical drawings for manufacture of the following gears
of eight types used in general machines.
This Standard specifies the matters specific to gears. General matters contained
in the drawings of gears shall be in accordance with JIS B 0001, JIS B 0021 and JIS
B 0031.
a) Spur gear (figure 1)
b) Helical gear (figure 2 and figure 3)
c) Double helical gear (figure 4)
d) Crossed helical gear (figure 5)
e) Straight bevel gear (figure 6)
f) Spiral bevel gear (figure 7)
g) Hypoid gear (figure 8)
h) Worm and worm wheel (figure 9 and figure 10)

2 Normative references
The following standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text,
constitute provisions of this Standard. For standards with the year indication, only
the editions of the indicated year shall be applied and the revisions (including amend-
ments) made thereafter shall not be applied. For those without the indication of the
year, the most recent edition (including amendments) shall be applied.
JIS B 0001 Technical drawings for mechanical engineering
JIS B 0021 Geometrical product specifications (GPS)-Geometrical tolerancing-
Tolerancing of form, orientation, location and run-out
JIS B 0031 Geometrical Product Specifications (GPS)-Indication of surface tex-
ture in technical product documentation
JIS B 0102: 1999 Vocabulary of gear terms-Definitions related to geometry

3 Terms and definitions

For the purposes of this Standard, the terms and definitions given in JIS B 0102
apply.

4 Illustration of gears

4.1 Tabular for part diagram and entry for illustration

For the part diagram of gears, the tabular and the illustration shall be used together,
and respective entries shall be as follows.
a) Data on gears shall be listed in the tabular. If required, matters related to work,
assembly, inspection, etc. shall be given. JIS B 1701-1 and JIS B 1701-2 shall
be referred. For the accuracy, JIS B 1702-1, JIS B 1702-2, JIS B 1702-3 and
JIS B 1704 shall be referred.
b) Dimensions which cannot be determined from the matters listed in the tabular shall
be given in the illustration. If required, the reference surface shall be given.
c) Matters related to the material, heat treatment, hardness, etc. shall be appropri-
ately given in the note column or in the illustration, if required.
d) Examples of the part diagram of various gears are shown in figure 1 to figure 10.
All the shapes, numerical values, notes, etc. are examples, and some items other
than the dimensions specific to the gear are omitted.
NOTE: As for the backlash, examples are shown in JIS B 1705 and the stan-
dard of Japan Gear Manufacturers Association JGMA 1103-01, and
as for the tooth contact pattern, in JGMA 1002-01.
The matters marked with * in the tabular shall be listed, if required.
e) Though some of the dimensional tolerances on the dimensions are omitted in the
drawings of this Standard, all necessary dimensional tolerances shall be given in
actual drawings.

4.2 Illustration method

4.2.1 Usage of lines

Lines shall be used as follows.
a) The tip circle is shown by a thick continuous line.
b) The reference circle is shown by a thin chain line.
c) The root circle is shown by a thin continuous line. When the illustration viewed
from the direction perpendicular to the axis (hereafter referred to as "the principle
projection chart") is represented by a cross-section, the root is shown by thick con-
tinuous line (see figure 1 to figure 8, figure 10 and figure 15).
The root circle may be omitted. Especially, it is usually omitted in the illus-
tration of the bevel gear and the worm wheel viewed from the axis direction (see
figure 6 to figure 8 and figure 10).
d) The direction of flank line is usually shown by three thin continuous lines [see
figure 4, figure 5, figure 7 to figure 9, figure 16 a) to c), figure 18 a), figure 19 d),
figure 19 e) and figure 20 a)].

B 0003: 2012

e) When the principle projection chart is illustrated by a cross-section, the direction

of the flank line of the helical outer gear from the front side of the drawing paper
shall be shown by three thin chain double-dashed lines (see figure 2), while that
of the flank line of the helical inner gear shall be shown by three thin continuous
lines (see figure 3).

4.2.2 Illustration of details of tooth flank form

The illustration of details of tooth flank form is shown in figure 2.

4.2.3 Illustration of details of tooth thickness and dimension measuring

method
Details of tooth thickness and the dimension measuring method shall be illustrated
in the drawings, if required. An example is shown in figure 11.

4.2.4 Illustration of chamfering of tooth

The illustration of chamfering of tooth is exemplified in figure 12.

4.2.5 Illustration of location of tooth

The case where the location of tooth needs to be shown clearly is exemplified in fig-
ure 13 and figure 14.

4.2.6 Illustration of contact of gears

The illustration of the contact of a pair of gears is exemplified in figure 15. Both
of the tip circles in the contact part are given by thick continuous lines. When the
principle projection chart is illustrated by a cross-section, the tip circle of one side of
the contact part shall be given by thin broken lines or thick broken lines.
Simplified diagrams of the contact of gears are exemplified in figure 16 to figure 20.
