Title: Semi-automatic milk flow sensor

Abstract: Apparatus is disclosed providing for the semi-automatic operation of a milk flow sensor having a chamber in which a valve supported by a float is disposed for controlling the flow of milk through the sensor. An externally actuated arm member serves to elevate the float and valve to enable the initial flow of milk through the sensor. Means is provided for the automatic return of the arm member to its original position in which it does not affect the movement of the float and valve after a sufficient amount of milk has been supplied to the chamber to support the float and valve in their elevated positions.
