System For Implementing An Adaptive Milking Process
Patent No. EP3187041 (titled "System For Implementing An Adaptive Milking Process") was filed by Technologies Holdings Corporation on Jun 7, 2011. The application was issued on Apr 5, 2023.
Patent Summary
An adaptive milking system comprises a memory storing a default threshold flow rate and a processor configured to receive a first measured flow rate from a milk meter during a first time period and calculate a percentage thereof. The processor monitors the current flow rate, measures a second flow rate during a second time period, and calculates a percentage thereof. A delay timer is triggered when the monitored flow rate falls below the maximum of: (a) the default threshold flow rate, (b) the calculated percentage of the first measured flow rate, or (c) the calculated percentage of the second measured flow rate. Upon the delay timer reaching a threshold time, the processor generates a control signal to stop the milking process.
