Head on rest for Xdegeboxes.

Ι: λ dar modern cattle husbandry "more and more box pens are being used _f in which the" animals are not tied up. " lie. Wooden planks or boards - or metal tube frames embedded in the stable floor - can serve as lateral partition walls for the individual boxes. In the case of stalls with hydraulic or mechanical stall removal, the dung axis runs on the back of the boxes, for example a gutter covered with a slatted floor, in which, if necessary, a si'ochanisehe device for removing the accumulating dung runs. U; n au prevent the animals from going backwards. out of your liiegaboxe and onto the slatted floor. come "is the stable floor constructed to be rising at above & v back of the boxes often wedge-shaped aur Miafcachse" so the animals leaving the boxes the backward movement öurcjb with Extrsmi. = would do no stray parts of the Mist axis procrastinate, along the tops of the cubicle is generally ; a cuboid = · or wedge-shaped projection, built in masonry or wood. A knife protrusion is intended as a front limit for the cubicles and, at the same time, as a head rest for the lying animals

consists in the fact that they are of different heights »i.e. in particular body length, which animals cannot be adapted to.

Especially in the case of smaller animals, this leads to them being too stand deep, i.e. too far forward in the cubicle, so that the excrement of feces and urine does not fall on the manure axis, but rather fall into the cubicle. Especially with larger Jimgvleh » stocks, this leads to a considerable workload, since the boxes are constantly being cleaned by hand prevent the animals from settling in their own excrement lay down ·.

To overcome this disadvantage of conventional cubicles According to the invention, it becomes a front limit at the same time the box serving head rest proposed, which is characterized by the fact that it consists of a cuboid, longitudinally » direction of the box there is a movable block »if necessary haben.die headrest according to the invention, · preferably on their Underside, fastening means sup anchoring in the stable floor or on the partition wall. So that the block "also younger people" and · so that smaller animals can "" serve as a head-on position, it has proven to be beneficial to incline the top of the block towards the cubicle. To save material and weight is the block is conveniently designed as ■ a pile body, the preferably open at the bottom or on one or two sides is. Both for manufacturing reasons and "im The head rest according to the invention is of interest to the animals themselves

preferably made of a relatively soft material from relatively low specific heat, e.g. made of wood or a suitable plastic «

The main advantage of the headrest according to the invention over the previously used permanently installed ones is that it is adjustable in the longitudinal direction of the megehoxes, whereby the length of the cubicles can be adapted as required to the respective body length of the animals. This ensures that even smaller animals stand directly at the rear border of the cubicles, so that all excretions inevitably fall on the slatted floor of the manure axis to be used for another purpose, eg as a cold box · To anchor it at the desired location, the headrest must be provided with suitable fasteners. A particularly simple solution consists in inserting blocks or wedges of different strengths between the headrest and the wall on the front of the box. The head rest is thereby secured in the desired position against shifting forward. On the other hand, it is also possible to attach bolts, for example, to the underside of the headrest, which, depending on the desired position, engage in holes provided for this in the stable floor. In general, it can be said that all fastening means can be used

suitable are »the headrest in various positions to secure against shifting forwards

To explain the invention in more detail, the attached Drawing serve «which shows the side view of a cubicle shows · The as a head rest and as a front limit for the cubicle serving block 1 abuts in the position shown directly on the front wall 3 * so that the cubicles in the shown Shape has the greatest possible length. By moving block 1 backwards «i.e. in the drawing to the right, the length of the cubicle can be changed and thus the respective body length of the animal to be accommodated. to be fitted. The wood * or metal frame 2 serves as a « borrowed © delimitation of the box to the neighboring box. This partition wall is preferably at a distance a from the end wall attached to prevent the animal from lying down or standing up, bumps or bumps your head against the partition. gets caught in it with its horns. The head rest I has the additional task of ensuring that the animal with its head does not rhyme or can come across. The rearward sloping part 4 of the The stable floor serves as a rear boundary for the cubicle.
