breast pump

A device designed to assist in lactation among human mothers for the purpose of filling bottles with milk for their children using suction.

Milking machine is a more generic term for devices to induce lactation among any animal. All breast pumps are milking machines, but if it is not for humans, (such as the especially popular cow milking machine) it's not a breast pump, but is a milking machine.
