Known devices of this type have a cleaning element which is adapted to be attached to a milking cup and which is adapted to be used for rinsing the milking-cup interior and for spraying rinsing liquid onto the end face of the milking cup so as to clean the outer surface thereof. The present invention provides an improved cleaning device comprising a cleaning element which is adapted to be attached to the milking cup such that a flow chamber is formed for producing a rinsing flow along an outer surface area of the milking cup which is to be cleaned. By means of this solution according to the present invention, an improved cleaning effect is achieved and the rinsing agent conducted through the flow chamber can then be used for cleaning the interior of the milking cup.
