International Classification:
A01J 7/00, A01J 5/00
US Classification:
119 1403, 119 1418
Abstract:
In certain embodiments, a method for milking stall assignment includes storing first location information associated with a dairy livestock, the first location information comprising a coordinate location of the dairy livestock within a milking parlor at a first time. The method further includes comparing the stored first location information associated with the dairy livestock with an area associated with each of a plurality of milking stalls of the milking parlor to identify a milking stall in which the dairy cow is located at the first time and assigning the dairy livestock to the milking stall in which the dairy cow is located at the first time such that data associated with milking of the dairy livestock may be associated with the dairy cow.

System And Method For Estrus Detection Using Real-Time Location

US Patent:
2012023, Sep 20, 2012
Filed:
Mar 17, 2011

Teat Cup Inflation

US Patent:
5069162, Dec 3, 1991
Filed:
May 23, 1990
Appl. No.:
7/527614
Inventors:
Paul D. Thompson - Madison WI
Gary C. Steingraber - Madison WI
Assignee:
DEC International, Inc. - Madison WI
International Classification:
A01J 500
US Classification:
119 1447
Abstract:
A new teat cup inflation comprises a flexible tubular member having upper and lower barrels and a mouthpiece chamber. The walls of the upper and lower barrels are formed as continuous bands of alternating internal and external flutes. The lower end of the lower barrel is formed with an external projection that is received in a groove in a teat cup shell. The wall of the inflation upper barrel diverges from the lower barrel toward the mouthpiece chamber. The wall of a portion of the mouthpiece chamber is fluted on the interior and has a frusto-conical surface on the exterior. The mouthpiece chamber further has a band portion that receives a retaining ring for assembling the inflation in the teat cup without tools and without stressing the inflation mouthpiece after assembly. The new inflation provides better control for teat penetration for improved milkout.

Milking Claw

US Patent:
4537152, Aug 27, 1985
Filed:
Jun 1, 1984
Appl. No.:
6/616115
Inventors:
Paul D. Thompson - Madison WI
Assignee:
DEC International, Inc. - Madison WI
International Classification:
A01J 700
US Classification:
119 1454
Abstract:
The milk claw has a frusto-conical cover fitting on and oriented to the bowl. The four inlets to the cover are downwardly and tangentially arranged on the cover so incoming milk hugs the inside wall of the cover as it swirls around the cover for discharge into the bowl. The bowl has a downwardly spiraled path leading to the outlet arranged on a radius of the bowl. A dam separates the start of the spiral path in the bowl from the outlet and serves to prevent the flow at the outlet from interfering with the flow entering the bowl.

Milking Claw Bottom

US Patent:
6981468, Jan 3, 2006
Filed:
Apr 20, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/828432
Inventors:
Gary C. Steingraber - Madison WI, US
Paul D. Thompson - Madison WI, US
Assignee:
Bou-Matic Technologies Corp. - Madison WI
International Classification:
A01J 5/00
US Classification:
119 1454, 119 1455
Abstract:
A milking claw for a dairy animal has a bottom having an outlet tubular member having a flow passage of a first vertical height, and a nozzle having an opening passing milk therethrough from the claw bottom to the flow passage. The nozzle opening has a second vertical height less than the first vertical height, such that milk level in the claw bottom need only rise to the level of the second lower vertical height of the nozzle opening rather than to the level of the first higher vertical height of the flow passage of the outlet tubular member, to provide a pressure differential between the vacuum in the outlet and the vacuum in the claw, whereby to draw milk from the claw in smaller more frequent slugs as compared to higher volume less frequent slugs while otherwise waiting for milk level in the claw bottom to rise to the level of the first vertical height.
