[0002] Currently, there are more and more standardized and large-scale dairy farms in China, and rotary milking is the primary milking method for large-scale farms. Its characteristics include fast milking speed, high efficiency, less stress on cows, and simple operation. Rotary milking follows a three-shift system: morning shift, afternoon shift, and night shift. The night shift coincides with the normal sleep period for cows and is the most labor-intensive.

[0003] Each milking carousel is staffed with 2 herders, 1 teat bather, 1 hind teat bather, 1 milk inspector, 1 udder wiper, 1 milking cup attacher, and 1 on-site inspector per shift. Among them, the 5 milkers responsible for teat baths, milk inspectors, udder wipers, and milking cup attachers have the most demanding work, standing around the milking carousel for more than 7 hours at a time. Coupled with the fast milking speed, milking is the most arduous job on the farm.

[0004] To address this, we designed an arc-shaped track movable bench structure for milkers, changing the traditional standing milking method to a sitting milking method, which helps improve work efficiency. Summary of the Invention
