ADAPTIVE MILKING MACHINE Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC A01J5/00 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: adaptive milking machine includes two-chamber teat cups (1) and a pulse-collector (4). The collector is made four-chamber, with a common milk-receiving chamber (5), a milk branch pipe (6) connected to a milk receiving device. The chambers (9) of the pulse-collector include a milk flow sensor (10), a regulator (11) of vacuum pressure in the under-teat chamber (2), a regulator (12) of vacuum pressure in the interwall chamber (3) of the milking cup, and a pulsator (13). The milk flow sensor is made in the form of a milk trap (14) with a float (15). The regulator of vacuum pressure in the under-teat chamber and regulator of vacuum pressure in the interwall chamber of the milking cup are controlled by a common control chamber (20). The pulsator is made in the form of an over-piston chamber (40) and an under-piston chamber (41), separated by a piston (42) with a calibrated opening for communicating the chambers. From the side of the over-piston chamber, the piston is equipped with a rack (44) interacting with the piston stroke stabiliser (45). From the side of the under-piston chamber, the piston is spring-loaded by a spring (46).

EFFECT: increasing the machine milking efficiency.
