Abstract

The present application provides a convenient and quickly-assembled rotary composting barrel and a quick assembly method thereof. On the one hand, the solution provides a convenient and quickly-assembled composting barrel, which comprises two lateral plates, a bearing plate and several surrounding plates, wherein the lateral plates and the bearing plate are respectively provided with the first clamping grooves and the second clamping grooves, and nuts are pre-installed in the first clamping grooves and the second clamping grooves, and the surrounding plate is provided with through-holes through which bolts penetrate at corresponding positions; on the other hand, the solution provides a quick assembly method of the rotary composting barrel, in which by screwing bolts with pre-installed nuts, the bearing plate is connected with the surrounding plate first, and then the lateral plates are connected with the surrounding plates at both sides quickly. The existing rotary composting barrel is inconvenient and time-consuming to install. The rotary composting barrel involved in this solution is ingenious in structural design. It is very convenient to install, and the assembly time is shortened by more than half. It is skillful and environment-friendly when used in conjunction with an unloading cart.

a bracket, and a barrel body rotating relative to the bracket,
wherein the barrel body is surrounded by two lateral plates and a plurality of surrounding plates;
wherein a hand wheel is arranged outside of each of the two lateral plates, and at least one bearing plate is arranged between the two lateral plates;
the bearing plate and each of the two lateral plates are both structural stress members;
the bearing plate has at least the same bearing strength as the two lateral plates;
the bearing plate is provided with an integrated positioning protrusion, and each of the plurality of surrounding plates are provided with a positioning groove to match with the positioning protrusion;
the bearing plate and the two lateral plates divide an inner cavity of the barrel body into a plurality of units while ensuring the structural strength of the barrel, and at least one surrounding plate of the plurality of surrounding plates is provided with material openings to communicate with each unit separately, and the material openings are provided with cover plates for blocking the material openings;
each of the two lateral plates are provided with a plurality of integrally formed retaining edges, each comprises a first pair of clamping grooves formed at distal ends spaced apart relationship for pre-installing nuts;
a plurality of projecting edges of the bearing plate, each comprises a second pair of clamping grooves formed at distal ends in spaced apart relationship for pre-installing the nuts, when the integrated positioning protrusion of the bearing plate is provided between the second pair of clamping grooves;
the first pair of clamping grooves and the second pair of clamping grooves can both limit the rotation of the pre-assembled nuts, wherein the first pair of clamping grooves and the second pair of clamping grooves lies along a same line along a length of the barrel body;
wherein each of the plurality of surrounding plates is provided with through-holes for bolts to pass through at positions corresponding to the first pair of clamping grooves and the second pair of clamping grooves,
wherein the positioning groove of each of the plurality of surrounding plates is located between the through-holes of a central portion of the surrounding plate;
the bolts pass through the through-holes and are screwed into the nuts pre-installed in the first pair of clamping grooves and the second pair of clamping grooves to realize the quick assembly of the barrel body.
