Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for classifying fresh milk in several tanks based on certain characteristics of interest obtained in real time during the milking process or based on predefined criteria; and to the electronic and automatic system that implements it, and that acts on the milk pipes in any milking machine.
- the milk obtained is diverted depending on each animal or each quarter, on each day of the lactation period, on each milking and / or at each moment of milking to one of the conservation tanks according to the established slogans, being able to obtain different types of milk, with different and predefined parameters and that can be used for different purposes.
- Obtaining milk with differentiated characteristics is a permanent economic objective of the dairy sector since the cost of the product is associated with characteristics such as fat, protein, lactose, somatic cell count (RCS) or other factors, such as presence of undesirable colors, which can make the product less attractive to the consumer, an important factor in a product dedicated to human food.
- characteristics such as fat, protein, lactose, somatic cell count (RCS) or other factors, such as presence of undesirable colors, which can make the product less attractive to the consumer, an important factor in a product dedicated to human food.
- the first negative effect is the increase in the associated cost caused by the corresponding increase in the final price of the product or the reduction in the profit margin for the members of the production chain.
- the mechanical separation which is the most common case within the milk production chain, in order to lower the fat content, produces a drag effect of other nutrients such as protein, reducing the economic value and Nutritive of the final product.
- the variation in the parameters can occur depending on the animal itself, its age, the day of lactation, the instant within the milking or, even, seasonal variations that affect the color of the milk, due to changes in the herd feeding. If there is variation in the parameters and the number of animals is sufficient, it will be possible to obtain the separation based on certain objectives for each housing.
- the RCS Somatic Cell Count
- the RCS has a high variation depending on the animal as it corresponds to a part of the symptoms of mastitis in any of its forms as indicated in the publication (YH Schukken, KE Deslié, AJ Weersink, and SW Martin "Ontario BuIk MiIk Somatic CeIl Count Reduction Program. 2. Dynamics of BuIk MiIk Somatic CeIl Counts", Journal of Dairy Science. 75 (12): 3359), being able to obtain values as disparate in the same installation as 10,000 cells per milliliter or several million cells per milliliter.
- the invention relates to a method and the system that implements it and which allows the milk to be diverted to a specific tank based on the measurements that are made in real time during the milking of each animal, depending on the day of lactation, number of lactation, age and characteristics of the animal, depending on at the time of the year and based on the references established for the installation as a whole.
- milk of certain characteristics can be accumulated in each tank and, consequently, achieve, according to the control strategies that are applied, the range of available values and the number of animals, enriched, differentiated or controlled milk.
- the classification of milk according to some of the parameters mentioned above allows to obtain, at a first level of sophistication, rich or enriched milk in some of the specific characteristics.
- Fig. 1 the evolution of the fat content can be observed as a function of the milking time with the corresponding confidence intervals of the
- Fig. 3 shows the evolution of the protein content in milk as a function of the day of lactation.
- a fairly pronounced relationship can be observed up to 300 days of lactation with a variation of up to 25% in the levels of interest which allows the protein content to be modeled with respect to the DEL parameter (Days in Milk) almost linearly; 300 days is usually the most common limit for the vast majority of animals in production. According to these data, it is possible to separate the milk according to the protein content depending on the day of lactation.
- the value of RCS has unpredictable variations depending on the days in milk (DEL), age, number of lactations although, for a given level it presents some variations within the milking as can be seen in Fig.
- milk can also be differentiated based on the RCS, measuring this parameter in real time using some type of device (such as the one shown in patent ES2190753) that allows a system to decide where to send the milk based on this critical value.
- the method of obtaining differentiated milk aims to achieve a certain value or set of values at one or several storage points and comprises: a) The determination of the values of the parameters of interest in the milk that are going to be object of differentiation, which can be done by direct measurement of its value by means of the corresponding sensors, or by estimating it from any other method. b) Comparison of the values of these parameters with the set of setpoints. c) Action on milk diversion systems to specific pipes based on the previous values. d) Driving the milk to independent tanks.
- the fat content in the milk is measured and the milk bypass systems are operated on specific lines depending on the fat value obtained and a reference value for the installation. In an even more preferred embodiment, the reference is to obtain semi-skimmed milk.
- reference is made to obtaining skim milk, that is, milk with a fat content of less than 1 gr / 100 ml. In another even more preferred embodiment, the reference is to obtain liquid cream, that is, milk with a fat content greater than 10 g / 10 ml.
- the protein content in the milk is obtained and the milk diverting systems are operated at different conduits depending on the protein value obtained and a reference value for the installation.
- the lactose content in the milk is obtained and the milk bypass systems are operated on different lines depending on the lactose value obtained and a reference value for the installation.
- the somatic cell count in the milk is obtained and the milk diversion systems are operated on different conduits depending on their value and a reference value for the installation.
- milk that exceeds a certain somatic cell count value is discarded.
- the presence of inhibitors in milk is detected and it is determined whether it is above or below any value set in advance for the installation, and the milk bypass systems are actuated for disposal in the event that the reference value is exceeded.
- the parameters of interest in milk are obtained in the independent storage tanks.
- the system that implements this method at each point where the differentiation of milk is to be carried out comprises a series of blocks that perform the above functions: - A sensor or a block of sensors located in the milk line that is intended to differentiate and which They correspond to some or all of the parameters that are the object of differentiation and / or a system for estimating parameters for those that are not going to be measured in line with the conduction of milk using sensors. This estimate is made using information from the animal and previous data about its production.
- the system makes the diversion decisions based on the various values involved that may comprise all or any of the following data: values of the sensors in line, values of the sensors in the tanks (if they had them), slogans, reference values of the variables that measure the sensors and the data of the installation and of the animals.
- the final set has as many systems as the one just described, such as points where you want to differentiate milk and can also include other auxiliary systems such as those that allow direct actions by a user on the diversion of the milk or systems capable of measuring or estimating the values of the parameters involved in the differentiation process directly at the storage points.
- these values make it possible to specify the decision-making process by knowing the values that are being obtained at each moment and at each differentiated milk storage point.
- the separation of milk at the time of milking prevents or reduces further processing.
- two effects are achieved: on the one hand, the cost associated with these treatments is reduced and, on the other hand, the reduction of the performance on milk prevents the loss of useful life and of both nutritional and organoleptic properties.

- FIG. 6 scheme that shows a discriminator or local controller in charge of deciding what to do with the milk that is being produced at any moment.
- FIG. 7 scheme showing the general conception of the fresh milk separation system with differentiated characteristics.
- the present invention can be carried out in many ways and there are various particularizations thereof that are focused on solving certain specific problems in a livestock facility. For a better understanding of the possibilities of use and application of the present invention, some examples are described below that should always be understood without any restrictive or limiting nature of the scope of the invention itself.
- Fig. 5 shows the system that is incorporated in each milking station and is capable of diverting the milk to a certain tank (8) using drives to bypass systems (1) that can be implemented by control valves and that connect the milking point (2) with the corresponding pipes (3).
- the decision to divert the milk at each moment from the milking of each animal is made based on a set of setpoints (4) received by the local controller (5), either the milking control system (6) or the user.
- This decision It is based on some characteristics of the milk from the milking point (2) by means of in-line sensors (7) that transmit their information to the local controller (5) and in the data from the animal, provided by the milking control (6 ).
- Fig. 6 its application is shown to a typical milking system in the room in which each milking stand has a system based on several teat cups (12) and a collector (13) that collects the milk extracted by each one of them .
- the local controller (5) who is in charge of deciding what to do with the milk that is being produced at any moment, reads the information from the sensors online (7), receives the set of setpoints (4) from the milking control (6) and acts accordingly, opening and closing the corresponding diversion systems (1) to divert the milk to the pipes (3) that take them to the storage and conservation tanks (8).
- the first of the possible embodiments for the generic system of Fig. 7 consists of the milk separation system based on the fat content, the value of which is still variable in each animal and in each moment of its life (lactation day and lactation number) presents a characteristic evolution during milking, presenting low levels in the beginning and gradually increasing as it passes.
- the best option is to locate an online grease sensor based on the measurement of optical parameters as indicated in the publication (R. Tsenkova, S. Atanassova, K. Itoh, Y. Ozaki, K.
- Toyoda Near infrared spectroscopy for biomonitoring : Cow milk composition measurement in a spectral region from 1,100 to 2,400 nanometers ", 2000, Journal of Animal Science 75: 515-522) to derive milk according to the total fat content at each time of milking.
- the fresh milk separation system with differentiated characteristics shown in Fig. 7, consists of a total of T tanks (8) to obtain T different types of milk whose objective characteristics are defined by a series of references (9) for installation; each of the tanks (8) receives milk through independent conduits (3) that connect each of the P milk extraction points.
- Each of these points can be a classic milking stand equipped with a collector with 4 or 2 lids or an independent liner like those used in milking robots.
- IT diversion systems (1) that allow the milk to be poured into each of the T conduits (3) by means of logical signals (10) of appropriate voltage and current values to command the diversion systems (one).
- Each of the milk extraction points has S sensors in line (7) to measure S variables of interest and inform each local controller (5) of the values of each parameter of interest.
- each of the tanks (8) has S or more sensors (11) to measure the same variables that are measured in line at each point plus other variables that it is not interesting to measure in line at milking time but that yes it may be important to know for the total of each tank (8). This is the case of the protein content that, although it does not show significant variation during each milking and, therefore, does not need to be measured in these conditions, its measurement in each tank (8) is important since it is of economic interest .
- the case of the protein is that of all those factors that do not show appreciable or more or less regulated variations during milking, but that do show changes depending on the animal, on the day of lactation, on the number of lactation, on the age of each animal or seasonality.
- the sensors (11) in each tank (8) inform the milking control (6) that it also receives the information of the animal that is being milked at each point by means of some of the standardized identification systems with coded magnetic collapses, generally by means of a EAN code. This information allows access to the data of the animal with information on the day of lactation, lactation number and age as well as additional factors such as its production history, diseases, presence of inhibitors, milk control data or any other factor that can be used as criteria from separation. Based on all these factors, the milking control (6) will supply a set of setpoints (4) to each local controller (5) that will finally decide the IT values of the logic signals (10) to act on the diverting systems (one).
