Abstract: In a machine used to refurbish roads, having a driver's cab for one operator, an automotive running gear with two axles (4) and a working roller (8) that is mounted to pivot relative to the machine frame and that is enclosed in a hood (7) which defines a working chamber, and having a drive motor (9) with the necessary output to drive the working roller (8) and to power the vehicle's travel, the invention provides that a drive unit containing the working motor (9) is mounted in a pivoting frame (13) and forms a unit (2) that can be pivoted relative to the machine frame (1), that the working roller (8) is also mounted in the pivotable unit (2) and, together with the latter (2), can be pivoted relative to the hood (7), which has a fixed mounting to the machine frame (1), and that the working roller (8) is directly weighted by the unit (2), virtually the entire machine weight being concentrated between the running gear axles (4) and transferred to the pivotable unit (2).

Abstract: A cylindrical cutting element for a cutting machine which includes base ps arranged at a uniform distance from each other. A chisel holder which receives an exchangeable chisel is secured with respect to each base element. The chisel holder has a plug connector which allows the chisel holder to be inserted into a plug receiver of the base element, where it is held by a pressure screw on the base part that grips the plug connector. To relieve the plug connector from the forces acting on the chisel, the base part has a projection which extends in an approximately parallel direction to the running direction of the cutting element and a stop that follows the projection in the running direction and forms an angle therewith. The stop limits the insertion of the chisel holder into the base element and absorbs forces transmitted through the chisel to the chisel holder.

Abstract: A cylindrical cutting element for a coal cutting machine with a reamer-conveyor worm or reamer spiral for a coal cutting, disposed projecting at a distance from the surface of the cutting element and comprising base elements attached at uniform distances. A chisel holder with an exchangeable chisel is connected to each base element. The chisel holder is inserted with its plug-in connector into a socket of the base element and is maintained therein by a pressure screw. A time-saving assembly of a cutting element, wherein the base elements can be positioned on and fastened to the surface of the cutting element in a simple manner is attained where receiver pockets are cut along the reamer-conveyor worm or reamer spiral at uniform distances into the surface of the cutting element, the undersides of the base elements end in a base whose cross section is matched to the receiver pockets, and the base elements are introduced, positioned by the base, into a receiver pocket and are fixedly connected thereto.
