Abstract: A urine collection device for a cow, comprising a positioner, a urine container coupled to positioner, a sensor for detecting a cow position, a stimulator for stimulating a stimulation region of a cow, wherein stimulation region is ventral with respect to a vulva of a cow, and a controller, wherein the controller is functionally coupled to the sensor for receiving a position of the cow. The controller is configured for controlling the position the stimulator at the stimulation region for stimulating the cow when a cow is positioned within a predefined range. When stimulation starts an urination, the positioner positions the urine container from a storage position to a working position for receiving a subsequent flow of urine from the stimulated cow.
Abstract: The invention provides a urine collection device for a cow, comprising a positioner, a urine container coupled to said positioner, a sensor for detecting a cow position, a stimulator for stimulating a stimulation region of a cow, which stimulation region is ventrally with respect to a vulva of said cow, and a controller, wherein said controller is functionally coupled to said sensor for in operation receiving a cow position of said cow, and said controller is functionally coupled to said positioner and said stimulator, said controller adapted for controlling said positioner for bringing said stimulator at said stimulation region and for stimulating said stimulation region of said cow in response to a cow position being within a predefined range, which stimulation starts a urination, and controlling said positioner for positioning said urine container from a storage position to a working position for receiving a subsequent flow of urine from said stimulated cow, wherein said urine container comprises a front e
Abstract: The invention relates to a milking device for milking animals, the required vacuum being, for example, generated by generating compressed air using a compressor and passing said compressed air through the system, the compressed air creating a vacuum at all required locations by means of the Venturi system. Because this vacuum differs at the various locations, the reduced pressure can be regulated precisely and adapted as required.
