Abstract

In a milk flow meter comprising a measuring chamber which is connected to a milk supply conduit, said measuring chamber communicating with a discharge chamber, which defines a milk sump at the lower end thereof, via one or several calibrated milk discharge openings and, if desired, via an additional air bypass, and being additionally provided with a milk suction conduit connected to said milk sump, an additional rinsing conduit is provided, the upper end of said rinsing conduit leading into the discharge chamber and/or the meas-uring chamber essentially on the level of the upper end of the measuring chamber and the other end of said rinsing conduit being adapted to be connected, with the aid of an adjustment means, essentially exclusively to the milk suc-tion conduit in a rinsing position. In this respect, small passage conduits are preferably provided, which connect the suction conduit with the sump and the discharge chamber also in the rinsing position of the adjustment means so that the device can also be completely emptied of rinsing liquid at the end of a rinsing procedure.
