METHOD OF MACHINE MILKING OF COWS Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC A01J5/00 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the sphere of agriculture. Proposed method of machine milking of cows consists in the following. At the initial phase of milking milk flow is stimulated for 30 s, at the same time, if within this period intensity of milk flow does not reach 200 g/min, stimulation is continued for additional 45 s and is terminated whenever the milk flow intensity becomes more than 600 g/min. Then machine milking is carried out in the main mode. In the final phase of milking as the milk flow drops below 600 g/min, machine after-milking is carried out with stimulation of milk flow. If, as a result of stimulation, the milk flow intensity increases up to the value of more than 600 g/min, it is terminated, and the main mode of milking is switched on. With further reduction of intensity below the specified level, milk flow is again stimulated until the intensity drops below the specified level, when milking sleeves are disconnected, and the milking machine is taken off and removed. Milk flow stimulation is carried out by supplying pneumatic pulses into chambers of milking sleeves with a frequency of 240 pulses/min and pulse ratio of 50:50. Machine after-milking is carried out by pulling milking sleeves with a frequency of 1 Hz.

EFFECT: invention provides for complete milking of cows, reduces risk of their mastitis sickness rate.
