Black Sabbath by a country mile, but an honourable mention to Budgie.

OK, not on the list, but this is my favorite 'B' in heavy rock:

I believe our good Jim was merely referring to the instrument.
I'm fairly sure that's Uriah Heep.

Boston! They are often seen like one of the million commercial bands of the '70s but they invented AOR and they also had a perfect sound research, their early albums sound still better than many recent productions.

Got it in one - my favorite B in heavy rock is indeed the B3 organ by Hammond (especially when played, as in the photo, by Uriah Heep's Ken Hensley)
Go to the top of the class

it's really not fair that Sabbath is there because I can't in good conscience vote for anyone else. Really though I really wanna say Blue Cheer. if there was no Sabbath I would be Blue Cheer all the way
