Claim 0:
1. A teat preparation apparatus, comprising:
a. a handpiece including a high-pressure air conduit, a pre-dip conduit, and a post-dip conduit, said high-pressure air conduit connects to a high-pressure air source, said pre-dip conduit connects to a pre-dip solution source, and said post-dip conduit connects to a post-dip solution source;
b. a teat receiving body located on said handpiece, said teat receiving body including sidewalls that form a center bore, and a high-pressure air port that connects to said high-pressure air conduit, a pre-dip port that connects to said pre-dip conduit and a post-dip port that connects to said post-dip conduit, said high-pressure air port being located above said pre-dip port and said post-dip port;
c. a spray cylinder located inside said central bore in said teat receiving body, said spray cylinder including sidewalls that form a central bore configured to fit around a teat, when said spray cylinder is placed inside said central bore, an upper circular raceway is formed between said sidewalls of said spray cylinder and said sidewalls of said teat receiving body that communicates with said high-pressure air port, and a lower circular raceway that communicates with said pre-dip port and said post-dip port;
d. a set of nozzles formed on said spray cylinder adjacent to said upper circular raceway configured to deliver said high-pressure air to said central bore;
e. a second set of nozzles formed on said spray cylinder adjacent to said lower circular raceway configured to deliver said pre-dip solution and said post-dip solution to said central bore; and
f. a deflection cap extending downward from said teat receiving body.
