Abstract: A method comprises receiving a flow of milk at an inlet of a manifold. The inlet comprises a first end coupled to a hose that receives a flow of milk from a teat cup and a second end terminating in a chamber of the manifold. The manifold comprises one or more other inlets and a plurality of outlets. The plurality of outlets includes one or more milk collector outlets and one or more drain outlets. The method proceeds by causing the flow of milk to be directed to a corresponding milk collector outlet by causing a shut-off valve corresponding to the inlet to open, and by causing a drain valve corresponding to the inlet to close. The method concludes by causing the flow of milk to be directed to a corresponding drain outlet by causing the drain valve corresponding to the inlet to open.
Abstract translation: 一种方法包括在歧管的入口处接收牛奶流。 入口包括联接到软管的第一端,其接收来自奶杯的牛奶流,以及终止于歧管的腔室中的第二端。 歧管包括一个或多个其它入口和多个出口。 多个出口包括一个或多个集奶器出口和一个或多个排水出口。 通过使对应于入口的截止阀打开,并且通过使与入口对应的排水阀关闭,导致牛奶的流动被引导到相应的收集器出口。 该方法的结论是通过使对应于入口的排放阀打开来使牛奶的流动被引导到相应的排出口。

Abstract: A milking device includes a support device (1) supporting a milking member (2) having a claw (3) and a number of teatcups (4) to be attached to a respective teat of an animal. The support device (1) includes a rear portion (6), an attachment part (9) attaching the support device to a structure, and an arm section (7) having a proximal end portion attached to the rear portion (6) and a distal end portion movable between an active position in the proximity of the animal to be milked and a rest position. A first cavity extends along the arm section and houses a retracting member for retracting the milking member from the teats of the animal. A second cavity for conveying a fluid flow extends along the arm section. The arm section includes an extruded part enclosing the first cavity and the second cavity.

Abstract: A support for positioning a milker unit beneath a cow has a shaft which is vertically movably mounted on a base. An arm on the shaft supports a milker unit beneath a cow. Air pressure is applied to the shaft to hold the shaft and arm at a desired vertical position. A control automatically adjusts the vertical position of the support so that when the milker unit is attached to a cow's teats the weight of the milker unit is applied solely to the cow's teats. The control includes a pair of valves each connected to a supply of air under pressure. A first of the valves has an open position in which the amount of pressure applied to the support decreases and the support is permitted to lower. A second of the valves has an open position in which air from the supply moves the first valve from a normally closed position to the open position thereof. The control has a lever mounted on the arm for moving the second valve to the open position thereof when the milker unit applies force to the lever.
Abstract translation: 用于将奶牛单元定位在母牛下方的支撑件具有可垂直移动地安装在基座上的轴。 轴上的一个臂支撑着一头奶牛下方的奶牛单位。 将空气压力施加到轴以将轴和臂保持在期望的垂直位置。 控制器自动调整支架的垂直位置,以便当奶嘴单元连接到奶牛奶头时,奶嘴单元的重量仅适用于牛奶的奶嘴。 该控制器包括一对各自连接到压力下的空气供应的阀。 第一阀具有打开位置,其中施加到支撑件的压力量减小并且允许支撑件下降。 第二阀具有打开位置,在该位置,来自供给装置的空气将第一阀从常闭位置移动到其打开位置。 控制器具有安装在臂上的杠杆,用于当挤奶器单元向杆施加力时将第二阀移动到其打开位置。
