Abstract

Device for pre-cooling milk in automated or robotic milking machines, consisting of a milking cup (1), a lower hose (2), a hollow coil (3), and a cooling unit (4), wherein the cooling liquid (cold water) for cooling the milked milk circulates from the cooling unit (4) through the hollow coil (3). A variant of the device for pre-cooling milk in automated or robotic milking machines is that instead of a hollow coil (3), the milking hose (2) itself has double walls with a distance between them, an inner wall (5) and an outer wall (6) with openings for the cooling liquid (cold water) - an inlet (7) and an outlet (8), with the milk flowing inside the inner wall (5), and the cooling liquid (cold water) for cooling the milk circulates between the inner wall (5) and the outer wall (6) of the milking hose (2).
