Abstract:
    Device for driving animals in an oblong corridor section (21) by means of a driving gate (2), which can be moved from one end to the other of the corridor section comprises a first transport arrangement (3, 5, 10, 12) to move the driving gate (2) in the corridor section in the longitudinal direction of the section, from a first position (2b) at one end of the section to a second position (2c) at the other end, and to move the gate (2) in the opposite direction, after it has been brought outside the corridor section, from a position (2d), which is opposite the second position (2c) in the corridor section to a position (2a), which is opposite the first position (2b) in the corridor section. The first arrangement comprises a displaceable mountable part (6), which can be moved in the longitudinal direction of the section over a distance corresponding to the distance between the first position (2b) and the second position (2c) of the gate. The device also comprises a second transport arrangement (13, 14, 18, 19) to pull the gate sideways out from the corridor section in the plane of the gate through a gap (26) in one side wall (22) of the corridor section from the second position (2c) in the corridor section and to push the gate sideways into the corridor section in the plane of the gate through a second gap (25) in the side wall (22) from the position (2a), which is opposite the first position (2b) in the corridor section. The second arrangement comprises a second displaceable mounting part (16), to which the gate (2) is fastened. This mounting part can be moved transversely to the longitudinal direction of the section over a distance corresponding to the total width of the driving gate (2) and the side wall (22) provided with gaps.
