摘要:
A device for determining the adhesiveness factor of a particular sort of feed. The device is provided with a tube-shaped chute (3) respectively a channel-shaped chute having a first end and a second end. The second end is located below the first end. A contact-determining means (8) determines the moment of contact of an amount of the particular sort of feed with a first place of the tube-shaped chute respectively the channel-shaped chute. A leaving-determining means (21) determines the moment when the amount of the particular sort of feed leaves a second place of the tube-shaped chute respectively the channel-shaped chute, said second place being remote from the first place. A period-of-time-determining means determines the period of time between the moment of contact and the moment of leaving.
摘要:
A device for automatically supplying a predetermined amount of at least one sort of feed to an animal (24) in a period having a predetermined length. Said device is provided with a feeding parlour (22), with animal identification means (37) for identifying an animal (24) present at the feeding parlour (22), and with a computer (42) for controlling the device for automatically supplying the at least one sort of feed to the feeding parlour (22). The computer (42) is suitable for determining the sub-period between the last supply of feed to an animal (24) and the momentary point of time when the animal (24) is identified by the animal identification means (37) at the feeding parlour (22). The computer (42) controls the device in such a way that, during the momentary visit of the animal (24) to the feeding parlour (22), there is supplied to the animal a feed balance, the size of said feed balance depending on the determined sub-period.
摘要:
A device for automatically supplying feed to animals, such as cows, the device being provided with a control device (19), the control device (19) generating a control signal for controlling the supply of the feed, and with parameter-measuring means for measuring a momentary value of a variable parameter and for issuing a parameter value signal to the control device (19), the control device (19) being provided with a processing device for processing the parameter value signal into the control signal. The parameter measuring means comprise means for measuring the milk yield of the animal and for issuing a milk yield signal to the proessing device.
摘要:
The invention relates to a device for automatically supplying feed and/or drink to an animal, comprising at any rate at least one trough (2), a flap (3), a control unit (4) for controlling the flap (3), so that the flap (3) is capable of being put in an open position and in a closed position for giving the animal access to the trough, respectively preventing the animal from having access to the trough (2), and an identification device (5) for identifying the animal and for emitting an identification signal that is indicative of the identified animal. The control unit (4) is provided with a memory, which memory is suitable for storing a first set of identification data in relation to animals that are allowed to have access to the trough (2) and a second set of identification data in relation to animals that are not allowed to have access to the trough (2), with a comparing device for comparing the identification signal with the first and the second set of identification data in the memory, the control unit always keeping the flap (3) in the open position or releasing the flap (3) from the closed position if the identification signal belongs to the first set, and the control unit keeping the flap (3) in the closed position or releasing the flap (3) from the open position for enabling it to assume the closed position if the identification signal belongs to the second set.

A device for automatically supplying feed to animals, such as cows. The device is provided with a control device (19) which generates a control signal for controlling the supply of the feed, and with parameter-measuring means for measuring a momentary value of a variable parameter and for issuing a parameter value signal to the control device. The control device is provided with a processing device for processing the parameter value signal into the control signal. The parameter measuring means comprise means for measuring the condition score of an animal and or issuing a condition score signal to the processing device. A method of automatically supplying feed to animals, such as cows. The method comprises the step of measuring a momentary value of a variable parameter and of providing a parameter value signal, the supply of feed depending on the parameter value signal. As variable parameter the condition score of an animal is chosen.
摘要:
A device for automatically milking an animal, which device is provided with a milking robot, a computer for controlling the operation of the device, a measuring device (5) for performing measurements on milk obtained from an animal, at least two teat cups (1-4), and a common milk line (6) for discharging milk coming from the at least two teat cups, each teat cup (1-4) being connected via a teat cup line (7-10) to the common milk line (6). The device is provided with a milk-determining element (11-14) for determining the teat cup from which comes the milk present in the common milk line and for emitting a determination signal. The measuring device (5) comprises a common sensor for performing measurements on milk obtained from an animal and for emitting a measurement signal. The common sensor (5) is disposed in the common milk line (6). The computer is suitable for combining the measurement signal and the determination signal.
