Embodiment Construction

[0033] like figure 1 As shown, the ice maker for an air-cooled refrigerator of the present invention includes a water storage device and ice-making equipment, and the water storage device is fixed on the bottom of the refrigerator compartment during installation. The water storage device includes a water storage device 1 and a water injection pipe 2, A water pump 3 (preferably a gear pump) is connected between the water storage 1 and the water injection pipe 2; the water storage 1 is provided with a position switch 4, which is a conventional technology in the art and is used to send the water level to the electric control device of the refrigerator. signal, its specific structure will not be described in detail.

[0034] The ice-making equipment is fixed in the freezer compartment of the refrigerator during installation, including a fixed frame (the fixed frame is a conventional technology, not shown in the figure), an ice-making box 5, a drive motor 6 connected to the side w...

Abstract

The invention discloses an ice maker for an air-cooled refrigerator and a control method thereof. The ice machine includes a water storage device and ice making equipment. The control method first detects the position switch signal of the water storage device, and then the electric control device controls the water pump to start for Z seconds to detect whether the ice making is completed and whether the ice storage box is full. If it is not full, de-ice and then refill water. After filling water, judge whether the temperature rise is greater than 5°C. If the temperature rise is not greater than 5°C, start the ice making process from the beginning again. The ice maker and control method for air-cooled refrigerators of the present invention have accurate water supply and can accurately judge the completion of ice making, and accurately detect whether the ice cubes are full with the least number of components, which not only optimizes the structural design, but also has a good action coordination effect , Reduce the production cost and prevent the water injection pipe from freezing and blocking.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ice making machines, in particular to an ice making machine for a refrigerator and a method for controlling ice making through an ice making temperature sensor and ice making time. Background technique [0002] With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, domestic residents have begun to have the habit of eating ice, which makes the demand for household refrigerator ice machines continue to rise. Although there were ice boxes in the previous refrigerators, most of them were made artificially. Water injection, deicing, etc. all need to be done manually, which cannot meet the needs of people to use ice at any time. [0003] In the traditional electromagnetic valve type refrigerator ice machine, the water storage box is placed upside down on the ice making box, and the water outlet valve faces downward. The ice machine works normally, but the ice making method is unreliable. [0004] At pr...
