A teat cup (2) for milking a teat of an animal to be milked is designed such that at least part of its length is flexible and/or deformable. As a result thereof the teat cup (2) can be stored compactly before and after milking. Further the end of the teat cup can be bent from the vertical working position, so that the risk of dirt and contaminations penetrating into the teat cup is reduced.

Why it's free to use
- Filed May 6, 1999. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended May 6, 2019.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by May 6, 2021.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
