  • Automatic, on-demand, self-adjusting brushing system for use with large animals, such as cows
    Patent number: 6318298
    Abstract: A large animal, such as a cow, is brushed by a system that includes a brush mounted on a frame that is pivotally mounted on a structure such as a stall adjacent to the animal. A motor is connected to the brush to rotate the brush and is activated when the animal presses against the brush. A timer mechanism automatically de-activates the motor after a pre-set interval so another, separate, force must be applied to the brush to re-start the cycle. The brush is moved by the animal pressing against the brush to automatically accommodate different animal sizes.
