The ice storage assembly 23 in the ice-making device 100 is disposed adjacent to the ice-making assembly 22. For example, the ice storage assembly 23 is disposed below the ice making assembly 22 such that ice cubes produced by the ice making assembly 22 fall into the ice storage assembly 23. The process of making ice by the refrigerator 200 is as follows: first, the ice tray is filled with water by the water inlet pipe. Then, the air duct assembly guides the cold air to the ice tray, and the cold air provides cold energy to the water in the ice tray, so that the water in the ice tray is made into ice. Specifically, the air duct assembly guides cold air to a gap between the ice tray and the door body 21, and the cold air flows into the ice storage assembly 23 after passing through the ice tray. After the ice making is completed, the ice separating motor separates the ice blocks from the ice tray, and the ice blocks fall into the ice storage assembly 23 for storage.
In addition, the refrigerator 200 further includes a door body 21, the door body 21 includes a door liner 211, the ice making device 100 is connected to the door liner 211, the door liner 211 is used for guaranteeing the temperature of the refrigerator 200, the material of the door liner 211 may be ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) plastic, the ABS material has good electrical insulation, is hardly affected by temperature, humidity and frequency, and can be used in most environments. The material of the door liner 211 may also be HIPS (High impact polystyrene), which is a thermoplastic material made of elastomer modified polystyrene. Such versatile products have a wide range of impact and processing properties and are widely used in many appliances and industries. Major industries and markets include packaging, disposables, appliances and consumer electronics, toys and entertainment, building products and ornaments. The largest single application of HIPS is packaging, especially in the food industry, with over 30% worldwide consumption. Wherein the ice making device 100 includes a support wall for supporting the entire ice making device 100, and the support wall is connected to the door bladder 211 such that the entire ice making device 100 is fixed to the door.

It is understood that the first air deflector 5331 is inclined toward the first air duct 6 so that the second through hole 535 can communicate with the first air duct 6.
Referring to fig. 10, fig. 9 is a schematic structural view of a third air guide in the ice making device shown in fig. 4.
The air duct assembly further comprises a third air guide 57. The ice making assembly 22 is connected to the support wall 1, the third air guide 57 has a first opening 571 and a second opening 572, the first opening 571 is communicated with the second air duct outlet 5112, and the second opening 572 is communicated with the first air duct inlet 61, so that the cold air flows toward the first air duct 6 along the first opening 571 and the second opening 572.
The third wind guide 57 is connected to the support wall 1 and disposed between the wind guide 51 and the ice-making assembly 22. The third air guiding portion 551 is disposed to prevent cold air from directly falling on the ice making assembly 22 to affect the quality of ice cubes. The third air guide member 57 can guide the cold air to one side of the ice making assembly 22 close to the supporting wall, and the quality of ice blocks is not affected while heat exchange is carried out.
In some embodiments, the size of the first opening 571 is greater than the size of the second opening 572. It will be appreciated that the larger size of the first opening can accommodate more cooling air so that cooling air can more easily collect at the first air duct inlet 61. In addition, the size of the first opening close to the first air duct inlet 61 is smaller, and the pressure is higher, so that the cold air transmission speed is increased, and the wind power is stronger.
