ABSTRACT:
An animal headgate including a pair of neckbars attached to the gates in such a manner that the neckbars are movable and adjustable independently from the movement of or adjustment of the gates. The neckbars are biased to pivot away from each other. Contact of the neckbar lever with a locking mechanism acts to overcome the biasing force and positions and locks the neckbars in a predetermined desired spaced relationship when the headgate is in the latch position. When the locking mechanism is released, the neckbars immediately release from the animal's neck while the shoulder bars gradually release from the animal's shoulders as the gates open.
