Publication number: 20200359598Abstract: Animal drinkers for beaked animals often have drinker valves (12) which are to be opened by activation units (13). In order for the respective drinker valve (12) to be opened, an elongate activation means (29) of the activation unit (13) is pivoted by the beaked animals. Conventional drinker valves of this type have above all the disadvantage that the respective valve pin (16) of the drinker valve (12) is always tilted in the same direction by the activation unit (13). This leads to unilateral wear and therefore to the respective drinker valve (12) being worn out in a rapid manner. The invention provides that the activation means (29) of the activation unit (13) is provided with at least one arm (30, 31). On account of said arm (30, 31) the respective valve pin (16) is able to be lifted in an axially oriented manner when pivoting the activation means (29). This reduces wear and leads to a longer service life of the drinker valve (12).Type: ApplicationFiled: November 21, 2018Publication date: November 19, 2020Applicant: LUBING MASCHINENFABRIK LUDWIG BENING GMBH & CO.
