ABSTRACT:
A milking installation comprises an annular platform divided into separate milking stalls, each for one cow and provided with a milking unit hermetically connected to its milk receiver, and means for rotating the annular platform so that the stalls successively pass a milk collecting station. The latter includes a flexible milk tube carried by an arm of variable length which is pivoted at one end, the free end of the arm being provided with a coupling member connected to the flexible tube and movable vertically to connect hermetically with said milk receiver. The flexible tube moves along with the milk receiver and returns to its starting position after being disconnected from the receiver by the coupling member.
