摘要

Method and apparatus for administering a powder, a paste or a preventive or curative liquid to an animal. This device comprises measuring devices (8, 9) which measure data about the animal while it passes between two posts (3, 4) or shafts arranged on either side of a path to a location when it comes to feeding or drinking. The data thus measured are transmitted to a control device (16) which, on the basis of these data may, for example to open a solenoid valve, this solenoid valve being arranged on the outlet nozzle (11) of a pressure-resistant container (13), which contains the substance in question and can was pressurized for example using a bicycle pump. The outlet nozzle (11) is fixed above the normal passage of the animal on a suspension arm between the posts (3, 4) or to a tree branch. Data refer to the height, length, weight and direction of movement of the animal. The control device (16) comprises delayed trigger devices.
