ABSTRACT:
A feeding system for cows uses a track system which carries bowls in a first direction from each of the stalls in a stanchion type barn to a feeding room where the bowls are filled and back to the stalls. Each of the bowls is carried by a bracket and has a mechanism for allowing the contents of the bowl to be emptied into a feed trough associated with an individual stall. A one-way tripping mechanism adjacent each stall allows the bowls to pass freely when moving in said first direction and causes the bowls to be emptied when moved in the reverse direction. All the full bowls can be simultaneously emptied by moving them in the first direction to align them with the proper stalls and by then reversing the direction of movement of the track system.
