Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of milking equipment technology, and in particular to a milking parlor drying device. Background Technology

[0002] Dipping dairy cows in medicated water on their teats before and after milking can effectively reduce infections caused by microorganisms in the teat skin and surrounding environment, thus lowering the incidence of mastitis. Existing medicated teat bath devices for dairy cows adopt the structure of the "Dairy Cow Teat Medicated Bath Health Care Device" with application number CN201611086204.7, which includes a support frame, a medicated bath device, and a spraying device. The support frame includes a vertical frame and side supports movably connected to the vertical frame. The medicated bath device includes an operating handle movably connected to the side supports, with a medicated bath dish at one end of the operating handle, containing an upward-facing protrusion. The spraying device includes a nozzle mounted on the protrusion, which is connected to a reservoir via an infusion tube. The reservoir contains medicated solution, and the medicated solution in the infusion tube is a pressurized delivery fluid.

[0003] This device effectively massages and disinfects the cow's teats with a medicated bath. During the subsequent milking process, the teats adhere tightly to the inner wall of the milking device for automatic milking. However, because the teats are wet after the medicated bath, they can slide between themselves and the inner wall of the milking liner, potentially causing damage to the cow's teats over time. If this sliding causes air leakage, it can also reduce the milk flow rate. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a milking parlor drying device.

[0005] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model provides a milking parlor drying device, including a support frame, a medicated bath basin mounted on the support frame, and a spray washing device and a massager all disposed within the medicated bath basin.

[0007] The medicated bath basin includes an inner basin and an outer basin placed outside the inner basin and forming an air supply cavity between the two basins. The outer basin is provided with an air inlet, which is connected to an air supply device through a pipe. The inner basin is provided with an air outlet located above the massager.

[0008] This utility model has the following advantages:

[0009] This solution involves setting up an air supply chamber and an air outlet on the medicated bath basin. After the dairy cows have finished their medicated bath, the air supply device can blow air into the air outlet to dry the cows' teats, preventing the teats from sliding against the inner wall of the milk liner during subsequent milking processes. This reduces damage to the cow's udder caused by the relative sliding between the teats and the inner wall of the milk liner, reduces air leakage, and speeds up milk production. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort.

[0011] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the medicated bath basin in the milking parlor drying device of this utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0012] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can typically be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0013] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0014] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0015] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0016] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the product of this utility model is in use, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly understood by those skilled in the art. They are only used for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first," "second," etc., are only used to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0017] In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0018] This utility model discloses a milking parlor drying device, which includes a support frame, a medicated bath basin, a spray washing device, and a massager. Similar to existing technologies, the medicated bath basin is mounted on the support frame; the spray washing device and the massager are both located within the medicated bath basin, respectively achieving nipple spray cleaning and massage. Unlike existing technologies, as shown in the following example... Figure 1 As shown, the medicated bath basin includes an inner basin 11 and an outer basin 12 placed outside the inner basin 11 and forming an air supply cavity 13 between the outer basin 11 and the inner basin 11. The outer basin 12 is provided with an air inlet, which is connected to an air supply device through a pipe. The inner basin 11 is provided with an air outlet 15, which is located above the massager.

[0019] With the above structure, since the air outlet is located above the massager, it does not interfere with the medicated bath spraying while allowing the teats to dry simultaneously with the massage. After the teats are dried, they can avoid sliding between the teats and the inner wall of the milk liner during subsequent milking processes, reducing damage to the cow's udder caused by relative sliding between the teats and the inner wall of the milk liner; it also reduces air leakage and speeds up milk flow.

[0020] To improve the overall hygiene of the milking parlor and reduce the amount of water blown from the teats out of the medicated bath during the drying process, the air outlet 15 is angled downwards in the direction of the wind. By setting the air outlet to angle downwards, the water from the teats can be carried by the wind into the bottom of the medicated bath during drying, preventing it from flying out of the medicated bath and affecting the milking parlor environment.

[0021] To improve the drying speed of the nipples, multiple air outlets 15 are provided and arranged around the inner basin 11.

[0022] To improve the uniformity of airflow from each outlet, there are two air inlets, one on each side of the massager. The simultaneous placement of two air inlets on both sides of the massager improves the uniformity of airflow within the air delivery chamber 13, thereby enhancing the uniformity of airflow from the outlets and improving the cows' comfort.

[0023] In order to reduce the number of air supply devices and reduce manufacturing costs, the two air inlets are connected to the air supply devices through the first tee pipe 16.

[0024] The specific structures of the spray washing device and massager, as well as their connection structure with the medicated bath basin, can all be implemented using existing technologies and are not the focus of this improvement; therefore, they will not be elaborated upon here. To improve the quality of the nipple medicated bath, a raised protrusion 2 is provided in the center of the medicated bath basin. The spray washing device includes a reservoir, nozzles 31 mounted on the protrusion 2, and an infusion pump. The infusion pump is connected to both the reservoir and the nozzles 31 via infusion pipes. The use of multiple nozzles enables multi-directional medicated bath spraying of the nipples, improving the quality of the medicated bath.

[0025] Furthermore, there are two nozzles 31, which are respectively located on both sides of the massager, and the two nozzles 31 are connected to the infusion pump through the second three-way pipe 32.

[0026] The air supply device 4 can use an existing blower. To improve the drying quality of the nipples, a filter device 5 is installed between the blower and the air inlet.

[0027] When using a first tee pipe to connect the air supply device and the air inlet, the filter device can be placed between the blower and the first tee pipe. To reduce costs, the filter device can use commonly used filter cotton.

[0028] It should be noted that the support frame is a conventional existing technology, and the structure shown in the "Dairy Cow Teat Bath Health Care Device" application number CN201611086204.7 can also be used. The air supply device 4 and the filter device 5 can be placed on the support frame.

[0029] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
