[0027] The storage barrel includes a barrel body 1 and a faucet 2 installed on the barrel body for discharging liquid in the barrel. The barrel body 1 includes a barrel body shell 11 and an inner liner 12 placed in the barrel body shell 11. The inner liner 12 is provided with a drainage hole 121 at the lowest position, and the barrel body shell 11 is provided with a mounting hole 111 communicating with the drainage hole. The faucet 2 is provided with a water outlet 21 and an elbow 22 communicating with the water outlet. The faucet 2 is inserted into the mounting hole 111, and the elbow 22 is communicated with the drainage hole 121.

[0028] In the bottom of the inner tank 12, the bottom of the inner tank 12 is tilted downward toward the drainage hole 121, so that the lowest point of the drainage hole 121 is flush with the lowest point of the bottom surface of the inner tank 12. Under the action of gravity, the liquid easily gathers at the drainage hole and flows to the faucet 2 connected to the barrel body.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the axis of the drain hole 121 is perpendicular to the axis of the mounting hole 111. Under the action of gravity, the liquid inside the barrel body 1 will flow from the drain hole 121 to the faucet outlet 21, making it easier to drain the liquid in the barrel.

[0030] The faucet 2 also includes a faucet housing 25 and a valve stem 251. The faucet housing has a water outlet channel and the water outlet. The water outlet channel is connected to the water outlet. The valve stem is inserted into the faucet housing 25. The elbow 22 is connected to one end of the faucet housing 25 away from the water outlet 22. The end of the valve stem away from the water outlet 22 has a plug 252 that can block the water outlet channel.
