Abstract
A juice extracting mill roll is provided with a plurality of juice channels connected with a plurality of juice inlet passages. The juice inlet passages have a longer dimension in an axial direction and a shorter dimension in a circumferential direction. Each juice inlet passage has a passage extension projecting into the juice channel to form a juice trap. Alternatively, a juice trap can be formed with each juice inlet passage intersecting the respective juice channel at a leading or lagging portion of the juice channel relative to the direction of rotation of the roll, and the opposite lagging or leading portion of the juice channel being shut off from the juice inlet passage.
