    摘要: In a method of automatically milking animals, such as cows, use is made of teat cups, each of which is provided with a liner made of a flexible material, by means of which the teat space of a teat cup is separated from the pulsation space. During milking, a pulsating vacuum stimulating the milk yield is created in the pulsation space. When a teat cup is being connected to a teat, the pulsation space is kept at an approximately atmospheric pressure, while air is extracted from the teat space. Conversely, when a teat cup is being disconnected, in the pulsation space a vacuum is maintained and in the teat space the vacuum is neutralized.

    摘要: An implement for milking animals, especially cows, automatically, is provided with teat cups. In the line system from a teat cup down to the location where the milk lines from the teat cups join, there is provided a vacuum-sensitive sensor and/or milk-sensitive sensor and/or a temperature sensitive sensor and/or a sensor sensitive to the electrical conductivity of the milk flow. Furthermore, there is provided a computer for processing and reproducing information conveyed from these sensors.

    摘要: In the case of teat rubbers consisting of a shaped tubular member, the outer side of which has formed thereon a holding rim for engaging the edge of a milking cup from above, it may very easily happen that the holding rim of the teat rubber breaks through when subjected to blows or knocks. The teat rubber will then be practically unfit for use. It is now suggested that a recess should be provided in such a teat rubber in the holding rim portion located opposite the milking cup edge portion facing outwards in the longitudinal direction, and that this recess has inserted therein a ring consisting of a material which is different from the material of the teat rubber.

    摘要: The milking tube section for a milking inflation is provided with a plurality of axially spaced, circumferentially extending grooves which define segments having opposed edges and which are dimensioned to permit relative movement of the sides of adjacent segments and afford a predetermined degree of bending movement of one segment relative to the adjacent segment in one direction without causing a substantial reduction in the internal cross sectional area of the flow passage through the stem portion of the milking tube section. The grooves are also dimensioned so that, after such predetermined bending in one direction, the edges of adjacent segments on one side of the stem portion abut and hinder further bending of the stem portion in that direction.

    摘要: An air inlet valve for admitting air to the milk drain conduit of a milking cup or collector piece includes a housing secured to the milking cup or collector piece, a diaphragm clamped within the housing, and a valve poppet secured to the diaphragm so as to project from one side thereof. The valve poppet cooperates with a valve seat to form a valve adapted to periodically open and close in response to a pulsator pressure action on the other side of the diaphragm. In its opened state, the valve permits atmospheric air to flow through a connecting conduit to the milk drain conduit such as the interior of a rubber teat cup. The connecting conduit opens through the valve seat surface. The valve poppet can be releasably secured to the diaphragm.

    摘要: The valve comprises a housing connected to the outlet of a teat cup assembly. The housing includes a nipple formed in the bottom portion thereof for connection to a milk suction line. A ball member is mounted inside the valve housing and adapted to seat at the opening from the housing into the nipple when the interior of the housing is exposed to atmospheric pressure. The valve further includes a plunger slidably mounted in the wall of the valve housing, and the plunger is adapted to slide inwardly into the valve housing when the pressure in the housing falls below atmospheric pressure. The inward movement of the plunger is adapted to dislodge the ball member from its seated position at the nipple opening. The plunger member has an elastomeric washer mounted thereon which seals against the housing when the plunger slides inwardly. The washer has a locking ear thereon which engages a projection on the housing to lock the plunger in its retracted position during cleaning.

    摘要: A closure for a teat cup with a resilient inner liner in the shape of a small disk with a centrally located bulge. A farmer who has to milk fewer than four teats on any cow because of injury to or disease in one of them can utilize the closure to adapt an automatic milking machine of the conventional type to harvest her milk. The disk is large enough to cover the opening in the teat cup liner otherwise provided for the reception of a teat so that the flow of air therethrough can be cut off when a vacuum is applied to the passageway which terminates in this opening. The bulge with its gently sloping, raised surface increases the area of contact between the disk and the lip of the liner to aid in sealing the disk to the cup under vacuum conditions and prevents the disk from slipping sideways. A magnet secured to the back side of the closure, opposite the bulge, facilitates storage.

    摘要: An inflation for use in a teat cup assembly for automatic milking machines employing a vacuum milk line and a pulsating vacuum line is disclosed. The inflation comprises an elongate, tubular, body member having a novel mouth-forming diaphragm at one end thereof for engaging the teat of a cow to retain the teat cup assembly from falling off the teat at the end point of milking. The mouth-forming diaphragm is formed by bonding one end of a relatively short tubular mouth-forming member to one end of the body member, wherein the mouth-forming member has a maximum cross-sectional dimension smaller than the maximum cross-sectional dimension of the tubular body member. The end of the body member to which the mouth-forming member is attached is expanded over the outer circumference of an annular expansion ring which has a diameter substantially greater than the cross-sectional dimension of the unexpanded portion of the tubular body member, so that the end of the body member is held in an enlarged circular configuration and the end of the mouth-forming member which is bonded to the body member is expanded outwardly toward the perimeter of the expansion ring. The other end of the mouth-forming member extends inwardly toward the longitudinal axis of the body-forming member, thereby forming the mouth-forming diaphragm at the end of the body-forming member. The mouth-forming diaphragm has a central opening therein which has a diameter less than the maximum cross-sectional dimension of the unexpanded portion of the body-forming member. Preferably, the body member and the mouth-forming member are made of silicone rubber material, with the mouth-forming member having a circular cross-sectional shape.
