The work of preparing Intemational Standards is normally carried out through 1SO technical ‘committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. Intemational organizations, govemmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the Intemational Electrotechnical ‘Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Dratt International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodios for voting. Publication as an Intemational Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. International Standard 180 53 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 60, Gears. ‘This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 53:1974), which has been technically revised. ‘Annex A of this International Standard is for information only. Descriotors: gears. cylncical gears. racks (gears) teeth (mechanics), profiles, charactorsics.BRITISH STANDARD | BS ISO 53:1998 Cylindrical gears for general and heavy engineering — | Standard basic rack tooth profile saw ae = NO COPYING WITHOUT BSI PERMISSION EXCEPT AS PERMITTED BY COPYRIGHT LAW BRL. 2 KLBS ISO 53:1998 ‘Tas Bets Standard, ving, elect on 15 October 1908 (© BSI 1998 ISBN 0.580 90452 3 National foreword ‘This British Standard reproduces verbatim ISO 63:1996 and implements it as the UK national standard. ‘The UK participation in its preparation was entrusted to ‘Technical Committee ‘MCE, Gears, which has the responsibility to: — aid enquirers to understand the text; — present to the responsible intemnational/Buropesn committee any enquiries ‘on the interpretation, or proposals for change, and keep the UK interests informed; — monitor related international and European developments and promulgate ‘them in the UK.

This height is to be caleulated for each case. ‘The standard basic rack tooth profile defined in this International Standard constitutes a geometrical reference for 8 system of involute gears in order to fix the sizes of their teeth. It does not constitute a definition of a cutter, but a ‘cutter may be defined from this standard besic rack tooth profile in order to realize a conforming profile, 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through reterence in this toxt, constitute provisions of this International Standard. At the time of publication, the euitions indicated were valid. All standards are subject to Fevision, and parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to Investigate the possibilty of applying the most recent editions of the standards indicated below.

Type C may be applied for ‘manufacturing with some standard hobs. Basic rack tooth profile type D is equivalent to a full radius form for the fillet. The enlarged dedendum, i= 1,4 m, with the associated fillet radi, 2, = 0,39 m, permits the finishing tool to work without interference, while maintaining the maximum filet radius. This profile is recommended for high-precision gears transmitting high torques and consequently with tooth flanks finished by grinding or shaving. Care should be taken to avoid ‘creating notches in the filet during tinishing, which would create stress concentrations.
