Embodiment Construction

[0027] figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an ice maker according to an embodiment of the present invention, figure 2 is cut along a vertical plane extending forward and backward figure 1 A cutaway view of the ice machine obtained, image 3 yes figure 1 The structural schematic diagram of the shell of the ice maker shown. An embodiment of the present invention provides an ice maker for a refrigerator, which uses the cold air of the refrigerator to make ice cubes without an additional refrigeration system, so its overall structure is relatively simple. Such as Figure 1 to Figure 3 As shown, the ice maker 10 may generally include a housing 100, an ice tray 200, and a water circulation system. Wherein, the housing 100 is provided with a cold air inlet 110 for introducing the cold air of the refrigerator into the housing 100 and a hot air outlet 120 for discharging hot air to the outside of the housing 100 (refer to image 3 ) to form an air circulation channel, ...

Abstract

The invention provides an ice maker for a refrigerator and the refrigerator. The ice maker comprises a shell, an ice making plate and a water cycling system, wherein a cold air inlet used for introducing cold air of the refrigerator into the shell and a hot air outlet used for discharging hot air out of the shell are formed in the shell; the ice making plate is arranged in the shell, and a plurality of columns of ice cube molds sunken inwards are arranged in the front side of the ice making plate obliquely relative to the horizontal plane; the water cycling system is arranged to enable water to cyclically flow through the ice cube molds so as to conduct heat exchange through cold air flowing from the cold air inlet to the ice cube molds and enable at least part of water to be cooled and frozen. According to the ice maker provided by the invention, a refrigerating system does not need to be additionally arranged; manual water adding operation by a user is omitted through the arrangement of the water cycling system, and the ice maker is quite easy and convenient to use. Besides, when water cyclically flows through the ice cube molds, the water is slowly frozen on the ice cube molds layer by layer, ice is continuously thickened until the ice cube molds is filled with ice. In this way, bubbles are avoided in made ice cubes, and the transparency is high.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to ice-making equipment, in particular to an ice-making machine and a refrigerator for a refrigerator. Background technique [0002] Some small ice machines can use the cold air of the refrigerator to make ice cubes, and are widely used because they do not need a separate refrigeration system. [0003] The current small ice machine usually makes the ice tray therein full of water, and after the ice making is finished, the ice cubes are taken out. The ice cubes produced in this way are likely to be mixed with more air bubbles, which affects the transparency of the ice cubes. Moreover, after the ice cubes are taken out, water needs to be added manually to continue the ice-making process, which is very inconvenient to operate. Contents of the invention [0004] An object of the present invention is to at least solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, and provide an ice maker for refrigerators that is easy to operate a...
