Abstract

An ice-making device installed in an ice-making chamber with a door, comprising an ice-making pan, a drive part, a holding body, and a holding part. The ice-making pan further comprises a first shaft part installed in the direction of the door and a second shaft part installed in the direction opposite to the door, and water to be frozen is supplied thereinto. The drive part further comprises a rotating shaft detachably connected to the second shaft part of the ice-making pan, and is installed at a position opposite to the door of the ice-making chamber. The drive part separates an ice from the ice-making pan by providing a force to the ice when the ice is generated by the freezing of the supplied water. The holding body supports the first shaft part and the second shaft part of the ice-making pan, and is formed integrally with the ice-making pan to form an ice-making pan unit. The holding part supports at least either of the first shaft part and the second shaft part by holding in association with the holding body.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an ice making device and a refrigerator provided with the ice making device. Background technique [0002] For example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2001-116410 discloses a conventional refrigerator having an ice maker and a detachable ice tray unit. [0003] FIG. 18 is an exploded perspective view of the automatic ice making device of the refrigerator, and FIG. 19 is an exploded perspective view of an ice tray unit in the automatic ice making device shown in FIG. 18 . [0004] The automatic ice making device includes: an ice making tray (hereinafter referred to as a tray) 81 , an ice removing mechanism 82 , a frame 83 and a loading and unloading mechanism 84 . The deicing mechanism 82 is used to separate the ice made from the tray 81 from the tray 81 . The frame 83 is used to accommodate appliances such as the tray 81 and the deicing mechanism 82 . In order to detachably hold the disk 81 , a detachable...
