Abstract
A milk claw includes upper and lower body portions forming a milk collecting chamber having a central vertical axis. Four inlet nozzles slant downwardly to said upper body portion while extending tangentially in one direction relative to said axis, whereby milk from these nozzles is caused to spin in said one direction about said axis as the milk descends in a spiral path in said chamber. A discharge nozzle opens into the lower part of the chamber at a region located in the spiral path of the spinning milk and discharges the milk tangentially from the chamber in the direction of said spin.
