A space divider of a milking parlor arrangement for at least one milking parlor for milking milk-producing animals, wherein the space divider is arranged approximately parallel to a longitudinal axis of the animal to be milked, has an arm device having a milking cluster, which can be adjusted from a parking position to a working position and back. The arm device is arranged with the milking cluster in the parking position in the space divider and can be adjusted into the working position laterally to the animal to be milked between the front and rear legs thereof in fully automatic operation or semiautomatic operation. The space divider is designed in such a way that no additional space is required between adjacent animals, so that many animals can be milked in a milking parlor arrangement while the smallest possible amount of space is required.

Space divider of a milking parlor arrangement, and milking parlor arrangement

A space divider () of a milking parlor arrangement ('&#x2033;) for at least one milking parlor () for milking milk-producing animals (T), wherein the space divider () is arranged approximately parallel to a longitudinal axis of the animal (T) to be milked, has an arm device () having a milking cluster (), which can be adjusted from a parking position to a working position and back. The arm device () is arranged with the milking cluster () in the parking position in the space divider () and can be adjusted into the working position laterally to the animal (T) to be milked between the front and rear legs thereof in fully automatic operation or semi-automatic operation. The space divider () is designed in such a way that no additional space is required between adjacent animals (T), so that many animals (T) can be milked in a milking parlor arrangement (&#x2032;&#x2033;) while the smallest possible amount of space is required.

The invention relates to a milking parlor arrangement (), in particular a milking carousel, comprising at least one milking parlor () for milking milk-producing animals (T) and comprising an inner robot device with at least one robot arm (). The at least one milking parlor () comprises two longitudinal sides and two narrow sides, namely a head narrow side and a hindquarters narrow side, one narrow side being paired with the head side of a milk-producing animal (T) to be milked as the head narrow side. The milking parlor also comprises an arm device () with a milking machine (), said arm device being adjustable between a parked position and a working position and back. The at least one robot arm () is arranged on the head narrow side paired with the head side of the animal (T) to be milked of the at least one milking parlor () of the milking parlor arrangement () in order to adjust the arm device ().

Milking parlor arrangement with an inner robot device

A space divider () of a milking parlor arrangement for at least one milking parlor () for milking milk-producing animals (T), wherein the space divider () is arranged approximately parallel to a longitudinal axis of the animal (T) to be milked, has an arm device () having a milking cluster ('), which can be adjusted from a parking position to a working position and back. The arm device () is arranged with the milking cluster () in the parking position in the space divider (), wherein the milking cluster (&#x2032;) can be adjusted into the working position laterally to the animal (T) to be milked between the front and rear legs thereof. The milking cluster (&#x2032;) comprises two halves, wherein each half has a specific set of at least one teatcup (). The space divider () is designed in such a way that no additional space is required between adjacent animals (T), so that many animals (T) can be milked in a milking parlor arrangement (&#x2033;) while the smallest possible amount of space is required. A milking parlor arrangement (&#x2033;) has at least one external robot ().
