Refrigerator comprises and is installed in the ice making unit 30 that is used for ice making in the refrigerating chamber 11 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.The ice making unit 30 that uses in refrigerator according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention is suites independently, and ice making unit 30 is installed in the refrigerating chamber 11 of refrigerator separably.Specifically, ice making unit 30 is placed on the shelf in the refrigerating chamber 11, therefore, as shown in Figure 1, if desired, can freely change the upright position of ice making unit 30.
Ice making unit 30 as shown in Figures 2 and 3 comprises: ice making box 300, the outward appearance of qualification ice making unit 30; A plurality of ice-making disc 310U and 310L are arranged in the ice making box 300, with ice making in ice-making disc 310U and 310L; Water tank 320 is arranged on a plurality of ice-making disc 310U and 310L top to hold the water that will be supplied among a plurality of ice-making disc 310U and the 310L; Boot disk 330 is distributed the water from water tank 320, thereby water is directed among a plurality of ice-making disc 310U and the 310L; Ice separator 340 is separated in the ice of making ice-making disc 310U and the 310L from ice-making disc 310U and 310L; Ice reservoir vessel 350, be arranged on the below of ice-making disc 310U and 310L, to hold the ice that separates with 310L from a plurality of ice-making disc 310U.By allowing water tank 320 to be installed to the ice making box 300 of ice making unit 30 separably, can realize being used for the supply of the water of ice making by simply water tank 320 being attached to ice making box 300.
Ice making box 300 is equipped with ice separator 340 at its front surface.Ice making box 300 comprises: box body 301 is furnished with a plurality of ice-making disc 310U and 310L in box body 310; Protecgulum 302, the front surface of covering box body 301; Top cover 303, the upper surface of qualification box body 301.The box body 301 of ice making box 300 is formed with the first opening 301a and observes ice making among ice-making disc 310U and the 310L to allow the user.The first opening 301a is provided with transparency window 304.The upper end of transparency window 304 is rotatably connected to the upside of the first opening 301a, with the axle Unscrew or close the first opening 301a by transparency window 304.In this exemplary embodiment, the upper end of transparency window 304 rotatably is attached to a side of the top cover 303 of the upper surface that limits ice making box 300.Therefore, even close at transparency window 304 under the state of the first opening 301a, also can be observe ice making a plurality of ice-making disc 310U and the 310L by transparency window 304 from the outside.
Side on the top of the protecgulum 302 of ice making box 300 is formed with water tank installing hole 302a, to allow water tank 320 by sliding before and after this installing hole 302a, thereby water tank 320 is pulled out or is pushed into from ice making box 300 in the ice making box 300, perhaps separate fully with ice making box 300.Bottom at the front surface of box body 301 is formed with the second opening 301b, to allow ice reservoir vessel 350 by sliding before and after the second opening 301b, pulls out or is pushed in the ice making box 300 from ice making box 300 thereby will ice reservoir vessel 350.
The top cover 303 of ice making box 300 is formed with a plurality of through hole 303a, so that the cold air in the refrigerating chamber 11 is incorporated in the box body 301.
In this exemplary embodiment, a pair of ice-making disc 310U and 310L are provided with up and down abreast.For convenience of description, arrange that superincumbent ice-making disc 310U is called as ice-making disc 310U, be arranged in following ice-making disc 310L and be called as ice-making disc 310L down.
A pair of ice-making disc 310U and 310L rotatably install up and down abreast, are formed with a plurality of ice build-up tanks 311 with arc section at the upper surface of each ice-making disc.
Boot disk 330 is installed in the top of rear surface of the box body 301 of ice making box 300.Boot disk 330 is divided into two parts, that is, the first water supply leader 330a and the second water supply leader 330b distribute and guide from water tank 320 to be discharged into water ice-making disc 310U and the following ice-making disc 310L.The first water supply leader 330a of boot disk 330 is located immediately at the top of ice-making disc 310U, and the second water supply leader 330b is positioned at the next door of ice-making disc 310U and above last ice-making disc 310U.The first water supply leader 330a is formed with water supply hole 331 so that water is fed to the ice-making disc 310U from the first water supply leader 330a.The second water supply leader 330b is formed with feed pipe 332 so that water is fed to down the ice-making disc 310L from the second water supply leader 330b.Therefore, feed pipe 332 extends downwards obliquely.
Therefore, a part that is discharged into the water of boot disk 330 from water tank 320 is transported to ice-making disc 310U by the water supply hole 331 that is formed on the first water supply leader 330a, and remaining water is transported to down ice-making disc 310L by the feed pipe 332 that is formed on the second water supply leader 330b place.Owing to by boot disk 330 moisture in the water tank 320 is fitted on described a pair of ice-making disc 310U and 310L, water is fed to described a pair of ice-making disc 310U and 310L so can finish in very simple mode.
Ice separator 340 is to make ice-making disc 310U and 310L rotation, thus the device that the ice made in ice-making disc 310U and 310L is separated.In this exemplary embodiment, ice separator 340 makes a pair of ice-making disc 310U and 310L rotation simultaneously, thereby simultaneously from a pair of ice-making disc 310U and 310L separate ice.
Ice separator 340 comprises: lever 341, rotate around the one end when being subjected to external force; Driven wheel 342 is rotated by lever 341; A pair of driven gear 343 rotates when being activated the revolving force of gear 342, to make a pair of ice-making disc 310U and 310L rotation respectively.In this case, driven wheel 342 and described a pair of driven gear 343 are installed in the front surface of box body 301.Gear cap 306 is arranged between box body 301 and the protecgulum 302, to cover driven wheel 342 and described a pair of driven gear 343.The center of gear cap 306 is formed with lever installing hole 306a, is attached to driven wheel 342 with an end that allows lever 341.In addition, lever guide groove 302b is at a side of protecgulum 302 longitudinal extension vertically, with moving both vertically of guiding lever 341.
One end of lever 341 is attached to the center of driven wheel 342.Therefore, along with lever 341 rotates around the one end, driven wheel 342 is with lever 341 rotations.A pair of driven gear 343 is arranged on the upper and lower of the front surface of ice making box 300, and meshes with driven wheel 342.When driven gear 343 rotated according to the rotation of driven wheel 342, driven gear 343 made a pair of ice-making disc 310U and 310L rotation respectively.In this case, driven wheel 342 is flexibly supported by the torsion spring (not shown) on its circumferencial direction, makes driven wheel 342 along the direction rotation that receives the external force that is applied to lever 341, and then, driven wheel 342 is got back to its home position.
As shown in Figure 4, if the user forces lever 341 to rotate around the one end under ice build-up tank 311 supine states, then driven wheel 342 rotates along a direction with lever 341, simultaneously, a pair of driven gear 343 and a pair of ice-making disc 310U and the 310L that are connected to driven gear 343 separately rotate as shown in Figure 5, cause the ice made in described a pair of ice-making disc 310U and 310L separated substantially.Therefore, along with the operation of single lever 341, all ice of making in described a pair of ice-making disc 310U and 310L is separated, thereby use ice making unit 30 easily.
After the external force that manually is applied to lever 341 was released, driven wheel 342 was because the elastic restoring force of torsion spring and along opposite direction rotation, caused lever 341, driven gear 343 and a pair of ice-making disc 310U and 310L to get back to as shown in Figure 4 home position.
Though illustrated and described exemplary embodiments more of the present invention, but those skilled in the art should understand that, without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, can change these exemplary embodiments, scope of the present invention limits in claims and equivalent thereof.
