ABSTRACT:
A milking cluster air fork (120) has outlets (122, 124, 126, 128) directing air tubes (80, 82, 84, 86) laterally inwardly of respective milk tubes (58, 60, 62, 64), rather than outwardly, to provide a narrower profile, such that if the dairy animal (22) lifts her rear leg (76, 78) and steps forward, the dew claw (112, 114) on the inside of her leg will not hook an air tube (80, 82, 84, 86) and pull the teat cup (50, 52, 54, 56) off the teat (26, 28, 30, 32).
