摘要

The cattle stable has a manure cellar (1) covered with panel type floor elements (3) forming the stable floor (4). The floor elements (3) are at the side supported by walls (5,7) of the manure cellar (1). The floor elements (3) have slots (9,9'') for urine discharge. Slots (9,9'') of two adjoining floor elements are in line. The walking surface (11) of the floor elements (3) is flat, which means the surface can be cleaned with manure disc (13) which has cams (14) to remove solid manure from the slots. The floor elements have wedge shaped sides (15,15;') which the slots (9,9') fit. This forms an opening through which urine can enter the cellar (1). Rising ammonia damp is retained in the cellar which reduces ammonia emission.
