Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of milk production technology, specifically to an intelligent monitoring system for dairy cow milking machines. Background Technology

[0002] Milk is obtained by utilizing the milk production characteristics of cows during their reproductive cycle. It is one of the oldest natural beverages, containing relatively complete nutrients, and has high nutritional value and is easily digested and absorbed, making it most suitable for patients, young children, and the elderly.

[0003] A search revealed that the announcement number is CN208609603U, titled "Intelligent Monitoring System for Milking Machines," which comprises three parts: an automatic milking machine, a cow identification device, and a milk volume data collector. Research and analysis showed that the PC-based host computer and the data collector are connected via wired or wireless means to analyze the changes in milk volume per milking cycle for each cow, facilitating management and monitoring of milk production. However, it still has some drawbacks.

[0004] For example, the equipment cannot monitor the quality of milk production during use. If the cows have health problems during milking, it can easily affect the quality of the milk. Furthermore, it does not have an automatic sterilization function for the cows. In dairy farming, bacteria inevitably adhere to the cows, but sterilization can usually only be done manually by staff. To solve these technical problems, we have designed an intelligent monitoring system for dairy milking machines. Utility Model Content

A milk analyzer body 2 is fixedly connected to the front top of the frame body 1. A signal transmission antenna 3 is fixedly installed on the right side of the top of the frame body 1. A PC host 10 is fixedly connected to the left side of the front of the frame body 1. A mounting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the front of the frame body 1. A delivery pump 6 is fixedly connected to the front of the mounting plate 5. A monitoring pot 7 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the front of the frame body 1. A discharge valve 8 is connected to the bottom of the monitoring pot 7. A disinfection mechanism 23 is provided on the rear top of the frame body 1. The disinfection mechanism 23 includes a liquid storage box 11, which is fixedly installed on the top of the frame body 1. A rinsing spray frame 15 is fixedly installed on the left side of the inner cavity of the frame body 1. An alarm module 16 is electrically connected to the output end of the remote control console 19. A data storage module 20 is electrically connected to the remote control console 19 in both directions. By setting the discharge valve 8, the monitoring pot 7 can discharge the monitored milk.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 A water pump 12 is fixedly installed on the left side of the top of the main frame 1. The outlet end of the water pump 12 is connected to the rinsing spray frame 15, and the inlet end of the water pump 12 is connected to the storage box 11.

[0023] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 A scale is embedded in the rear side of the liquid storage box 11. The rear side of the liquid storage box 11 is connected to a liquid filling valve 13 and a liquid draining valve 14. By setting the scale, it is convenient for users to observe the amount of solution in the liquid storage box 11. By cooperating with the liquid filling valve 13 and the liquid draining valve 14, it is convenient for users to add disinfectant into the liquid storage box 11.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The outlet of the delivery pump 6 is connected to the monitoring vessel 7, the inlet of the main body 2 of the milk analyzer extends into the inner cavity of the monitoring vessel 7, and the inlet of the delivery pump 6 is connected to the milking container.

[0025] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The four corners of the bottom of the frame body 1 are fixedly equipped with movable casters 9. The animal chip scanner 4 is fixedly installed on the right side of the top of the inner cavity of the frame body 1. The output end of the animal chip scanner 4 is electrically connected to the PC host 10. By setting the movable casters 9, it is easy for the user to move the device to a suitable position.

[0026] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The alarm module 16 includes an audible and visual alarm 17 and a remote alarm 18, the input terminals of which are electrically connected to the remote control console 19.

[0027] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 5 The data storage module 20 includes a data storage server 21 and a data cloud storage device 22.

[0028] In use, the user first moves the device above the milking equipment to cover the milking area. When the cows enter the milking equipment, the animal chip scanner 4 identifies the working cows and then sends the identified information to the PC host 10 for staff to record. During milking, the user operates the delivery pump 6 to draw the milk into the monitoring vessel 7. The user then operates the milk analyzer 2 to analyze the milk, detecting components such as fat, protein, lactose, and total solids, allowing staff to assess the quality of the milk production. The main body 2 of the milk analyzer transmits the monitoring data to the PC host 10, which in turn transmits the data to the remote control console 19 via the signal transmission antenna 3. The remote control console 19 then transmits the data to the data storage module 20 for storage. If the milk quality does not meet the standards during monitoring, the remote control console 19 will activate the alarm module 16. The alarm module 16 will then alert the staff via the audible and visual alarm 17 and the remote warning device 18, allowing the staff to handle the situation separately. After milking, the user can also control the water pump 12 to deliver the disinfectant from the storage box 11 to the rinsing spray frame 15, which will then disinfect and rinse the cow.

[0029] In summary, this intelligent monitoring system for dairy milking machines, through the cooperation of the main frame 1, the main milk analyzer 2, the signal transmission antenna 3, the animal chip scanner 4, the mounting plate 5, the delivery pump 6, the monitoring pot 7, the discharge valve 8, the casters 9, and the PC host 10, solves the problems of not being able to monitor milk production quality, the potential impact of abnormal cow health on milk production quality, and the lack of automatic cow disinfection functionality, requiring manual disinfection by staff.
