[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the arc surface can reduce the phenomenon of the center plug block being stuck to each other when being inserted into the center groove, thereby improving the stacking efficiency of the gallon barrels.

[0017] Optionally, the center plug is located at the center of the upper cover, and first reinforcing ribs are evenly arranged on the upper cover with the center plug as the center, and second reinforcing ribs are evenly arranged on the peripheral wall of the main barrel body, and the length direction of the second reinforcing ribs is consistent with the height direction of the main barrel body.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the first reinforcing rib can improve the structural strength of the upper cover, and the setting of the second reinforcing rib can improve the structural strength of the main barrel body, thereby improving the structural strength of the gallon barrel, so that the gallon barrel can improve its pressure resistance and adapt to high-pressure working environment.

[0019] Optionally, the peripheral wall of the main barrel body is further provided with an anti-collision strip, and the length direction of the anti-collision strip is perpendicular to the length direction of the second reinforcing rib.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the provision of anti-collision strips can reduce the phenomenon of gallon barrels being damaged by mutual collision during storage and transportation. The provision of anti-collision strips can also further improve the structural strength of the main barrel body.
