Establishing rational structural-technological parameters of the milking machine collector
Journal Title: Восточно-Европейский журнал передовых технологий - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
<p>A collector of the milking machine is the nodal element in the system of accumulation and transportation of the received milk to a milk pipeline. It was established that the structural-technological parameters of the milking machine collector influence the efficiency of machine milking. This is related to ensuring the completeness of milking and preserving the quality of the received milk. Existing designs of collectors perform their functions insufficiently and inefficiently. A delay in emptying the milk chamber disrupts operational characteristics of machine milking. It is possible to solve the problem by improving a transportation capability of the collector. For this purpose, we propose a two-section design of the milk chamber, which could eliminate the problem of milk overflow. Additional pressure gradient during the tact of compression could improve the mode of transportation and enable complete emptying of the milk chamber. The level of vacuum pressure under the nipple of a cow depends on the structural parameters of the collector’s milk chamber under identical conditions of milk release. The intensity of milk release defines parameters of the transporting link collector‒ milk pipeline. The desired pressure gradient is established by supplying an additional portion of air from the separating chamber, through a throttle opening. The rate of establishing a pressure drop is determined by the diameter of a throttle opening and by the level of pressure in the separating chamber and the milk chamber. Losses of vacuum pressure in a flexible milk pipeline form the required transporting difference in pressures between the collector and the upper milk pipeline.</p><p>This testifies to the interrelation between structural-technological parameters of the collector’s milk chamber and the modes of efficient milk transportation. A rational correlation between the volume of section of the milk chamber, the diameter of a milk hose and the diameter of a throttle opening enables effective transportation of milk while preserving its quality.</p>
