This is distinguished.For example, the first ice making box can be referred to as the second ice making box, equally, the second ice making box can also be referred to as first
Ice making box, this protection domain without departing from this application.
First preferred embodiment provided by the invention discloses a kind of refrigerator, and refrigerator includes babinet(It is not shown)With for beating
Open or close the door body of closed box body(It is not shown), babinet defines storing compartment, and wherein the quantity of storing compartment and structure type can
Configured according to different demands.Storing compartment generally includes refrigerating chamber and refrigerating chamber.
As shown in Figures 1 to 6, refrigerator further includes ice machine, and ice machine is arranged on babinet OR gate body.Specifically, ice machine
The ice making box device 14 to be rotated around the first pivot 12 is driven including motor, by motor, wherein ice making box device 14 includes first
Ice making box 16 and the second ice making box 18 with 16 phase of the first ice making box back to setting, the first ice making box 16 have a plurality of first ice
Lattice 20, the second ice making box 18 have a plurality of second ice trays 22, and the opening direction of the first ice tray 20 and the second ice tray 22 is on the contrary, fixed
The plane of the adopted axis 23 by the first pivot 12 and the opening direction perpendicular to the second ice tray 22 is the first plane 24, the first ice
Projection of 20 and second ice tray 22 of lattice in the first plane 24 is least partially overlapped.
Ice machine further includes ice bank(It is not shown), ice bank is arranged on the lower section of ice making box device 14, for receiving first
Ice cube made from 16 and second ice making box 18 of ice making box.An embodiment of the present invention also discloses a kind of ice making side of ice machine
Method, specifically, ice making method comprises the following steps:
S1, inject a certain amount of water into the first ice tray 20;
S2, treat in the first ice tray 20 after the completion of ice making, starts motor so that ice making box device 14 is rotated 180 degree, to the second ice tray
A certain amount of water is injected in 22, the heat transfer of water gives the first ice tray 20 so that ice cube departs from the first ice tray 20, and falls at this time
Fall in ice bank;
S3, treat in the second ice tray 22 after the completion of ice making, starts motor so that ice making box device 14 is rotated 180 degree, to the first ice tray
A certain amount of water is injected in 20, the heat transfer of water gives the second ice tray 22 so that ice cube departs from the second ice tray 22, and falls at this time

The stop of top layer ice cube in box, ice making box device 14 can not complete 180 degree and rotate and ice full signal is passed to control unit, with
Cold blast rate is set to reduce or stop, ice machine stops ice making.
The technical solution that this preferred embodiment provides, since the first ice making box 16 and 18 phase of the second ice making box are back to setting,
Projection of the second ice tray 22 on the first ice tray 20 and the second ice making box 18 in the first plane 24 on first ice making box 16 is extremely
Small part is overlapping, and so after the completion of ice making in the first ice tray 20, motor can overturn ice making box device 14, make the first ice making box
16 downward, and injects a certain amount of water into the second ice tray 22, and the heat of water can pass to the first ice tray 20 so that ice cube at this time
Depart from the first ice tray 20, and drop in ice bank.Equally, after the completion of ice making in the second ice tray 22, motor can be again by system
Ice chest device 14 is overturn, and makes 18 direction of the second ice making box, then inject a certain amount of water into the first ice tray 20 again, at this time water
Heat transfer is to the second ice tray 22 so that ice cube departs from the second ice tray 22, and drops in ice bank.The invention by back to
Set two ice making boxs and using the water of room temperature come realize opposite to each other to ice making box deice so that structure is very simple, cost compared with
Low and ice-making capacity bigger.
Specific in the present embodiment, the projection of the first ice tray 20 and the second ice tray 22 in the first plane 24 is completely overlapped.
So so that the first ice making box 16 and the second ice making box 18 back to contact area bigger so that it is more preferable to deice effect.
Further, the first ice making box 16 and the second ice making box 18 are integrally formed setting.Certainly, the first ice making box 16 and
It can also use between two ice making boxs 18 and removably be separately set.The first ice making box 16 is such as connected to by the second system by screw
Ice chest 18.It can be described in detail in ensuing embodiment.
Preferably, the first ice tray 20 and the second ice tray 22 are disposed as multiple edge body, the first ice tray 20 and the second ice tray 22
Faceted pebble number is not less than 12.So so that the ice cube in the first ice tray 20 and the second ice tray 22 is more easy to fall off, certainly.First ice tray
20 and second ice tray 22 may be set to be other shapes.Or first the faceted pebble number of ice tray 20 and the second ice tray 22 be arranged to other
Quantity.
The material of first ice making box 16 and the second ice making box 18 is aluminium.So that the first ice making box 16 and the second ice making box 18
Between thermal conductivity it is more preferable, it is more convenient to deice.Certainly, the first ice making box 16 and the second ice making box 18 can also use other gold
Belong to material.
Ice machine further includes the motor box 26 for accommodating motor and the stent 28 for being connected to motor box 26.Stent 28 includes being located at
The outer part 29 of the periphery of ice making box device 14, outer part 29 have in face of the first opening 30 of the first ice making box 16 and in face of second
Second opening 32 of ice making box 18, the projection of the first ice making box 16, the second ice making box 18 in the first plane 24 is fully located at
In first opening 30 and the second 32 drop shadow spread in the first plane 24 of opening, one end of ice making box device 14 is connected to electricity
Machine, the other end of ice making box device 14 are pivotly arranged on stent 28 by the second pivot 25.
Further, the first ice making box 16 extends the first opening 30, and the second ice making box 18 extends the second opening 32.This
Sample, not only so that the relatively reliable stabilization of installation of ice making box device 14.And cause the first ice making box 16 or the second ice making box 18
When deicing, the ice cube in the first ice making box 16 can be fallen in ice bank by the first opening 30, the ice in the second ice making box 18
Block can be fallen in ice bank by the second opening 32.
Stent 28, which further includes, is arranged at outer part 29 for installing the mounting portion 34 of ice machine.Specifically, mounting portion 34
