Abstract: In a cutting roller, preferably for a winning machine and provided with a plurality of picks on its blade and with a number of fluid-spraying nozzles for cooling the picks, each nozzle is screwed into a nozzle-receiving member into which a shutoff valve is inserted which opens the bore in the nozzle-receiving member for connecting the passage for supplying fluid with the nozzle when the latter is inserted into that bore or automatically blocks that bore when the nozzle is removed from that bore.

Abstract: A cutting roller for a winning machine, which includes a tubular support and a number of helical blades on the tubular support provided with cutting picks arranged on the periphery of each blade, is provided with a hydraulic fluid spraying system which comprises a circumferential fluid distribution passage formed in the blade, connecting passages leading to the spraying nozzles and a radial bridging passage connecting the fluid distribution passage with the connecting passages. The fluid distribution passage and the bridging passage are grooves which accommodate plastic fluid-conducting tubes. The grooves are covered with covers of non-corrossive material which are releasably connected to the walls of the blade.
