By the known a kind of ice maker of JP 09-243220A, this ice maker has two ice cube shells of arranging similarly with US 2007/0089441 A1, and namely these two ice cube shells reciprocally leave with ice cube shell injection plane separately on the opposite side of ice making block and point to the ground layout.In order to make square ice cube, the first ice cube shell is set, and in order to make ice pellets (Koernern), the second ice cube shell is set.Can make the ice cube with two different size and shapes thus.
Task of the present invention is to realize a kind of the have refrigerating appliance of improved producing ice cakes device, especially Domestic refrigerator.
This task solves by a kind of refrigerating appliance, especially Domestic refrigerator according to the present invention, it has the producing ice cakes device, this producing ice cakes utensil is useful on the driver that makes at least two ice cube shells swings and/or distortion, described ice cube shell has respectively by the injection plane of two longitudinal side gauges and can change orientation around a common rotation, wherein, described at least two ice cube shells are arranged to, their the first longitudinal side respectively than separately the second longitudinal side from this rotation more close to.
The ice cube shell is can be with the mould of water or the perfusion of other liquid.These moulds pre-determine the profile of ice cube to be manufactured.Each ice cube shell especially has a plurality of chambeies at this, namely for the manufacture of acceptance divisions a plurality of ice cubes, recessed arch.Each chamber preferably has profile that for example taper ground narrows down gradually towards the depths, that the ice cube that is frozen into by water or liquid freon is easily deviate from this.The ice cube shell of flexibly constructing by distortion of deviating from of ice cube is realized.The ice cube shell can pass through driver or flexibly distortion of motor, and this motor can be also simultaneously for upset ice cube shell or be transformed to the driver of next ice cube shell from an ice cube shell.The injection plane of each ice cube shell forms by the functional upside of ice cube shell, and this upside just forms in this point the top edge termination section in chamber and also determines thus the maximum open width in each chamber.The longitudinal side of ice cube shell can be passed through to determine for the longitudinal extension of the corresponding rotation axis of upset or distortion ice cube shell.If the ice cube shell has the injection plane of basically square profile or substantial rectangular, the horizontal side of ice cube shell is substantially perpendicular to ground, the longitudinal side extension that is substantially perpendicular in other words the ice cube shell for the rotation ground of upset or distortion ice cube shell at least.
Described at least two ice cube shells are arranged to, their the first longitudinal side respectively than separately the second longitudinal side should from rotation more close to, this means, in other words the ice cube shell departs from ground, center with respect to rotation and arranges.Therefore, the ice cube shell can be laterally by swinging also, especially the arranged concentric from the producing ice cakes device puts away on a circuit orbit.Being bearing on a common rotation even have more than two but ice cube shell a plurality of, that especially have different chambeies, is also particularly advantageous.
Therefore described at least two ice cube shells injection plane that can relative to each other be arranged to them is in mutually different angle positions.For example also can arrange 1 three, four or a plurality of ice cube shell on the polygonal shell surface of this rotation.
In special embodiment, the injection plane that described two ice cube shells can be arranged to them at least is in acute angle, right angle, obtuse angle or reflex angle.Preferably can especially these ice cube shells be arranged with the sensing that is different from parallel or antiparallel orientations mutually in these embodiments.Therefore, for example in the situation that two ice cube shells, if the second ice cube shell for water or liquid perfusion and directed, the first ice cube shell is not the position of pouring out that must be arranged in overturning.Therefore, two ice cube shells can successively pour into and freeze with water, and needn't make an ice cube shell arrive the danger of pouring out in the position and not existing ice cube by mistake to deviate from from the ice cube shell.
In the with good grounds configuration of the present invention of institute, described at least two ice cube shells radially extend from rotation at least substantially parallel to, the horizontal side that especially is parallel to rotation ground extension and injection plane at least basically with the longitudinal side of its injection plane with leaving.The horizontal side of the injection plane horizontal side of ice cube shell in other words just is similar in this point in the spoke ground of wheel and outwards leaves from wheel hub or rotation.The horizontal side of the injection plane horizontal side of ice cube shell in other words is not accurately radially to extend at this, but can arrange with rotation with staggering and can especially tangentially pass through by rotation.
