This application claims the Korean Patent Shen submitted on June 16th, 2015 to Korean Intellectual Property Office
Please the priority of No.10-2015-0085075, entire contents is hereby incorporated herein by.
Technical field
Present invention relates in general to a kind of refrigerator, relate more specifically to the ice maker of a kind of refrigerator
And method.
Background technology
Reefer unit is the equipment playing the function storing food at low temperatures.Reefer unit is according to wanting
The type being stored food can store food in a cold or frozen state or under frozen state.
The inside of reefer unit is continuously fed the cold air cooling of reefer unit.Cold air passes through
Heat exchange operation between the air and the cold-producing medium that carry out in kind of refrigeration cycle continuously generates.This circulation
Including the process compressed, condense, expand and evaporate.It is fed into the cold air within reefer unit
Owing to convection current is evenly transferred to the inside of refrigerator, thus at a temperature of desired in refrigerator
Store food, beverage and other article..
Generally, the main body of refrigerator has the parallelepiped shape at the rectangle above opened.Above
The access of cold room and the refrigerating chamber being pointed in reefer unit main body can be provided.Additionally, hinge
Door can be mounted to the front side of main body, thus is selectively opened and/or closes cold room and refrigerating chamber
Opening.Additionally, cold room in reefer unit and refrigerating chamber can be provided with multiple drawer, frame
Son and accepting box etc., they are arranged in the storage area of reefer unit most preferably store respectively
Plant food, beverage and other article.
Routinely, reefer unit is configured to overhead type refrigerator, and wherein refrigerating chamber is positioned at cold room
Top.In recent years, in order to strengthen user convenience, bottom-freezer type refrigerator unit is by refrigerating chamber
It is positioned at below cold room.In bottom-freezer type refrigerator unit, more frequently used cold room has
It is positioned at top, so that user can access cold room easily, and without such as overhead type sharply
Reefer unit is previously required bends over.Rarely needed refrigerating chamber is positioned at bottom.
But, owing to refrigerating chamber is positioned at bottom, so when user wishes more frequently to access down
During the refrigerating chamber in portion, bottom-freezer type refrigerator unit may lose its design advantage.Such as,
The ice cube of the preparation being stored in refrigerating chamber is probably the ordinary articles that specific user frequently accesses.
In bottom-freezer type refrigerator unit, owing to refrigerating chamber is positioned at the lower section of cold room, so user
In order to open refrigerating chamber door and access ice cube and will have to bend over.
In order to solve this problem, bottom-freezer type refrigerator can include being arranged in refrigerating-chamber door

Top, more specifically, be positioned at above refrigerating chamber.In this case, for manufacturing ice cube
Ice maker can be arranged in refrigerating-chamber door or be arranged on the inside of cold room.
The ice making method of ice machine can be divided into two types: cooling cools down with direct indirectly.Indirectly
Cold air is supplied to ice machine by forced convertion and makes aqueous ice pallet cooling make by cooling type
Ice.Directly cooling type is by making refrigerant pipe directly contact ice making with ice pallet or water.The coldest
But the shortcoming of type is lower than the rate of cooling of direct cooling type.By contrast, direct cooling type system
The advantage of ice method is that its rate of cooling is more much higher than indirect cooling type ice making method.But, by
It is arranged in ice-making compartment in refrigerant pipe in direct cooling type, so the structure of ice-making compartment becomes multiple
Miscellaneous.Accordingly, it is difficult to manufacture the reefer unit of direct cooling type.Additionally, due to complexity, the most very
Difficulty is operated in ice-making compartment.Difficult manufacturing process has a strong impact on the direct cooling type refrigerator list of construction
The manufacturing speed of unit, and also cause the manufacturing cost of reefer unit to improve.Additionally, due to refrigeration
Agent pipe is arranged in the inside of ice-making compartment, so the storage volume of ice-making compartment reduces to a certain extent.
