Abstract

A milking teat has a inductive pressure sensor (10) with magnet transmitter (12), optical or strain gauge sensor vulcanized in place to record the pressure in the pulse space (8) around the rubber teat (4) relative to the animal teat holding space (6) for comparison with a reference value.

Claims (9)

1. Melkvorrichtung mit mindestens einem Melkbecher, der einen Innenraum (6) zur Aufnahme der Zitze eines zu melkenden Tieres durch eine Öffnung (9) des Melkbe­ chers sowie einen von dem Innenraum (6) durch ein Zitzengummi (4) getrennten Pulsraum (8) aufweist, der mit einer Unterdruckquelle verbindbar ist, gekennzeichnet durch einen die Bewegung des Zitzengummis in Folge eines sich zeitlich ändernden Druckdifferenzprofils zwischen dem Innenraum (6) und dem Pulsraum (8) unmittelbar erfassenden Sensor (10), der fest in dem Melkbecher angeordnet ist.1. Milking device with at least one milking cup which has an interior ( 6 ) for receiving the teat of an animal to be milked through an opening ( 9 ) of the milking cup and a pulse space ( 8 ) separated from the interior ( 6 ) by a teat rubber ( 4 ). which can be connected to a vacuum source, characterized by a sensor ( 10 ) which directly detects the movement of the teatcup liner as a result of a temporally changing pressure difference profile between the interior ( 6 ) and the pulse space ( 8 ) and which is fixedly arranged in the milking cup. 2. Melkvorrichtung nach Anspruch 1, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Sensor (10) in dem Zitzengummi angeordnet ist.2. Milking device according to claim 1, characterized in that the sensor ( 10 ) is arranged in the teat rubber. 3. Vorrichtung nach Anspruch 1 oder 2, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Sensor (10) in dem Zitzengummi einvulkanisiert ist.3. Device according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the sensor ( 10 ) is vulcanized into the teat rubber. 4. Melkvorrichtung nach Anspruch 1 oder 2, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Sen­ sor ein induktiver Messsensor (10) ist, der mit einem magnetischen Signalgeber (12) zusammenwirkt, der mit dem Zitzengummi (4) verbunden ist.4. Milking device according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the sensor is an inductive measurement sensor ( 10 ) which interacts with a magnetic signal transmitter ( 12 ) which is connected to the teat rubber ( 4 ). 5. Melkvorrichtung nach Anspruch 1 oder 2, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Sen­ sor ein optischer Sensor ist.5. Milking device according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the Sen sor is an optical sensor. 6. Melkvorrichtung nach Anspruch 1 oder 2, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Sen­ sor durch einen Dehnungsmessstreifen gebildet ist.6. Milking device according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the Sen sor is formed by a strain gauge. 7. Melkvorrichtung nach einem der vorherigen Ansprüche, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Sensor (10) mit einem Pulsator der Melkeinrichtung verbunden ist, dem ein Speicher, in dem das Verhalten des Zitzengummis (4) in Folge eines Druckdiffe­ renzprofiles als Referenzwert hinterlegt ist, sowie eine Auswerteeinrichtung zugeord­ net ist, welche ein eine Zitzengummifehlfunktion angebendes Signal erzeugt, sofern der von dem Sensor gemessene Wert außerhalb einer vorbestimmten Toleranz von dem Referenzwert abweicht.7. Milking device according to one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the sensor ( 10 ) is connected to a pulsator of the milking device, a memory in which the behavior of the teat rubber ( 4 ) is stored as a reference value as a result of a pressure difference, and an evaluation device is assigned which generates a signal indicating a teat rubber malfunction, provided that the value measured by the sensor deviates from the reference value outside a predetermined tolerance. 8. Melkvorrichtung mit mehreren zu einem Melkzeug für ein zu melkendes Tier zusam­ mengefassten Melkbechern nach Anspruch 7, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass jeder Melkbecher einen Sensor aufweist und mit der Auswerteeinrichtung verbunden ist und dass die Auswerteeinrichtung derart vorbereitet ist, dass zu jedem Melkbecher ein bestimmtes eine Zitzengummifehlfunktion angebendes Signal erzeugt wird.8. Milking device with several to a milking cluster together for an animal to be milked quantitative teat cups according to claim 7, characterized in that each Milking cup has a sensor and is connected to the evaluation device and that the evaluation device is prepared in such a way that for each milking cup a certain signal indicating a teat cup malfunction is generated. 9. Melkvorrichtung nach Anspruch 7 oder 8, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Aus­ werteeinrichtung ein eine Pulsatorfehlfunktion angebendes Signal erzeugt, sofern die gemessenen Werte zu jedem Melkbecher außerhalb von Toleranzbereichen um die jeweiligen Referenzwerte liegen.9. Milking device according to claim 7 or 8, characterized in that the off value device generates a signal indicating a pulsator malfunction, if the measured values for each milking cup outside of tolerance ranges around the respective reference values.
