TEAT CUPS FOR MILKING MACHINES ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A teat cup assembly for automatic milking machines employing a vacuum milk line and a pulsating vacuum line is disclosed. The assembly comprises a rigid, tubular outer shell and an elongate, tubular, inflation member having a novel mouth-forming diaphragm at one end thereof for engaging the teat of a cow to retain the teat cup assembly from falling off the teat at the end point of milking. A sleeve member is adapted to secure the upper end of the inflation in expanded condition to the upper end of the shell. The sleeve member is also adapted to receive the mouth-forming diaphragm. The mouth-form- ing diaphragm has a central opening for receiving the teat of a cow, with the central opening having a circumference smaller than the cross-sectional circumference of the inflation. A protective cap member fits over the mouth-forming diaphragm and sleeve member. A lower cap member is adapted to secure the lower end of the inflation in expanded condition to the lower end of the shell, with the lower cap member having a nipple for connection to the vacuum milk line. The shell has a port therein adapted to be connected to a pulsating vacuum line. The mouth-forming member is preferably molded from silicone rubber and the inflation is made from extruded, tubular silicone rubber.
