摘要

本研究目的在研製一套適合國內酪農需求的泌乳牛自動乳量計，能結合牛乳導電度量測系統，具有乳房健康監測及牛乳品質檢測功能。泌乳牛自動乳量計使用定容積方式計測乳量，當牛乳液面上升接觸到感測電極，開啟電磁閥門排出牛乳200 ml，計算排出牛乳次數獲得總乳量。由實驗室的模擬測試分析得到電磁閥門適當的開啟時間約在0.492~0.655秒之間，由擠乳室的實地測試顯示研製完成之泌乳牛自動乳量計其量測及清洗功能可達到設計效果。

The purpose of this research is to develop an automatic milk meter of dairy cow which is applicable for dairy farm environment in Taiwan. The milk meter can integrate automatic milk harvesting equipments such as milk electric conductivity measurement system. Automatic milk meter is an efficient equipment for udder health monitoring and milk quality detection of a dairy farm. The milk meter was developed using constant volumetric measuring mode. When the milk level goes up to touch the electrode, the electromagnetic valve will open to release the milk about 200 ml. The total milk is calculated as the accumulation of the discharged milk and plus the compensation. The proper opening time of the electromagnetic valve is about 0.492 to 0.655 sec according to simulation results run in laboratory. Results of field tests for this automaticmilk meter conducted at milking parlor showed the designated functions of measuring and cleaning could be successfully achieved.
