COOLING SYSTEM FOR COOLING FLOW OF MILK, MILK STORAGE FACILITY, MILKING SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RECONFIGURING COOLING SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2019 - IPC A01J9/04 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to milking equipment. Group of inventions includes a milk flow cooling system, a milk storage, a milking system and a method of changing the configuration of the cooling system. Cooling system for cooling a flow of milk comprises first and second refrigeration systems, first and second intermediate coolant circulating systems and a line manifold interconnectable between the first and second intermediate coolant circulating systems. Coolant in the first intermediate coolant circulating system is in heat exchange connection with the first refrigeration system in a first heat exchange section. Coolant in the second intermediate coolant circulating system is in heat exchange connection with the second refrigeration system in a second heat exchange section. Cooling system is reconfigurable between first operation configuration providing two-stage cooling of the flow of milk and a second operation configuration providing one-stage cooling of the flow of milk.

EFFECT: higher quality of milk.
