In the patent application G 35002 III / 45h a feeding fence for cattle is described in which two opposing double-armed clamping rods, which can be pivoted symmetrically to one another in the vertical plane and locked in the clamping position, are arranged between two relatively far apart vertical bars, with their opposing pivot points approximately the same distance as the width of the neck of an average animal. The feeding fence is characterized in that the clamping rods have outwardly curved, preferably weighted lower arms, which are each connected to one another via a link and a vertically guided guide piece in such a way that the guide piece is in the upper end position when the upper arms of the clamping rods are spread and the guide piece is pressed down by the neck of the animal in the lower end position when the upper arms are in the clamping position, wherein the at least one extended position guide move the upper arms towards each other and lock in this position.

It has now been found that there is no need to use a grid as the basic construction by slightly modifying the subject matter of the invention, the separation of two rooms, namely the Eating area and the standing room is sufficiently secured.

The invention consists in that the clamping rods are bent towards one another at their upper end. Since the upper cross member of the lattice can thus be omitted, since the animal does not move its head upwards from the can free arms located in the clamped position, a substantial material saving is created.

Another idea is to arrange the articulation points of the clamping rods in supports that are supported on the lower transverse tube. This means that they are relatively far from each other superfluous removed vertical bars that the two clamping bars in the formation of the subject invention after the main patent application. In order to now fill the gap between the clamping bars in a row arrangement and to guarantee sufficient rejection of the animals are also on the supports after the Side-facing deflectors arranged. These deflectors preferably consist of a ring that is so large that even a young animal cannot stick its head through accidentally to get stuck, but still of sufficient size to allow the gap to the next stand

Josef Gerdemann, Greven (Westphalia)

Half of the information must be filled in, as the next stand has the same deflector. Of course , this deflector can also have a different shape

the ring only guarantees accident safety, as there are no corners and edges on which the animals can injure themselves, even if they make careless movements in play or in combat.

In the drawing, as an embodiment of the invention is shown. It shows

F i g. 1 the device in the open position in solid lines, in the closed position in dash-dotted lines,

F i g. 2 shows the device in a side view in section along the line AB in FIG. 1.

As in the main patent application, the feeding fence according to the invention initially has a lower cross bar 2, which can be a somewhat thicker tube . Furthermore, two clamping rods 4 are arranged, the lower arms 4 a are bent outwards and preferably have a weight loading due to the fact that the tubular clamping rods 4 α are made of solid material at their lower, outwardly bent ends. The rods 4 can be pivoted, to be precise about pivot points 5.

According to the invention , the upper arms Aa of the clamping rods 4 are bent towards each other so that they almost or completely touch each other with their ends 4c in the arrested position shown in phantom, in which they hold the animal. It does not matter whether the upper arch is rounded or angular, just as it does not matter whether the lower arch 4fl is rounded or angular. The S-shape shown has the significant advantage that there are no corners or edges that could cause injury to the animal. Another

The advantage is that the entire clamping rods can be bent in one piece.

The pivot points 5 for the clamping rods 4 lie in supports 20, which in turn are supported on the cross tube 2 either directly or indirectly via an angle iron as shown 21. The angle iron 21 covers from the front and from above the cross bar 2 or tube 2, with the A significant advantage is achieved that the entire device can be assembled in one workshop and only needs to be placed on the tube 2 in place. The touchdown can take place by means of clamps or in the manner shown, namely by welding.

In the manner described in the main patent application, the clamping rods 4 are moved, namely by pressure in the indicated arrow direction C on the guide piece 8, whereby the handlebars 7 are brought into an extended position relative to one another, as shown in phantom in FIG. 1 is shown. The rod 9 is thereby displaced in the tube 10, and in this embodiment, too, a safety device consisting of a spring-loaded lever 13 can be pivoted under the outlet end of the rod 9, so that when the guide piece 8 is pressed down by an animal, the device is automatically restored opens and the animal has not been caught all day in the pasture, for example.

There is no basic grid to separate the feed trough from the animals' room with this device necessary. In order to reject the animals between the articulation points 5 for the rods 4 and not them To make it possible to eat standing in the gap, deflectors are on the supports 20 outwardly 22 arranged, which are simple iron rings in the illustrated embodiment. Have rings the advantage of not having any corners and edges, so that the animal does not injure itself on these rings can. Of course, other shapes can also be used for the deflectors.

The function of the overall device is the same as in the subject of the main patent application, only the basic framework and lattice are omitted in this embodiment. It just remains the cross tube or cross bar 2 is available as a mounting base. , ';
