ABSTRACT:
A mobile arrangement for a group stabling and treatment of farm animals, especially of milk cows, in rectangular large-capacity cow-houses, in which animals are confiningly stabled and transported for milking. The arrangement combines the advantages of confining systems and free stabling; it permits a maximum degree of mechanization and automation, and it obviates some of the drawbacks of prior systems. In two cow-house bays which are mirror images of each other, and which are separated one from the other by a milking station and a gridded channel for receiving dung, there are disposed in each bay rails for seating movable platforms with individual stabling stands limited by box railings. The platforms in each bay move in paths which are a mirror image of the other; the platforms of the two bays move in parallel paths in the same direction on opposite sides of the milking and treating stations, as well as on opposite sides of the gridded channel.
