An implement for automatically milking animals comprises a milk robot with a robot arm portion (34), adapted to carry teat cups (45 to 48), and with cylinders able to draw the teat cups (45 to 48) against the robot arm portion (34) by means of flexible members (68). Each teat cup (45 to 48) is provided with a tapered end portion and can be drawn into / or kept in position in a tapering recess (67) in the robot arm portion (34) by means of a flexible member (68). The tapering recesses have a form which corresponds with the tapering of the end portions of the relevant teat cups (45 to 48). <IMAGE>
