<p>In the case of a composter comprising a drum supported for rotation about a level longitudinal axis thereof, means for driving said drum about said axis, said drum including a peripheral casing which is at least partly in the form of perforated sheet metal panels, a longitudinal conveying device fitted under said drum and able to be driven selectively in opposite directions for selective conveying of compost falling from said drum to a compost deposit and a lifting conveying device arranged at one end of said drum, a charging device arranged in an upper part of the drum for cooperation with the lifting conveyor, the aim of the invention is to ensure the most even distribution of the coarse material along the length of the drum while nevertheless keeping to a simple design of the composter and ease of operation. For this purpose the said drum driving means is adapted to turn said drum in either direction about said axis, and at least one internal door is hinged on said casing for closing and opening a door opening in said casing, said door being arranged to pivot about a hinge axis parallel to the drum axis.</p> |
