Case 12 can also be arranged in outside heat insulation layer 6, there being capable of the more easily filling water tank;However, the water tank is not suitable for
Cold water is drawn, further, since case 12 is placed in common refrigeration lattice 2, before new filling room temperature water reaches freezer 3,
The water is pre-cooling to common refrigeration lattice temperature first;This aspect leads to the high energy efficiency of ice making, on the other hand can be realized phase
With the operation of the ice machine 15 with the short cycle of operation of duration.
Ice machine 15 includes in known manner frame 16, in the frame, under the outlet 17 of the end of water pipe 13
Face, the pallet 18 (referring to Fig. 3) with multiple ice molds 19 are pivotly assembled around horizontal axis 20.In the upward of pallet 18
In open position state, the filling water from water pipe 13 of ice mold 19 can be given, mode is temporarily to open valve 21, especially electromagnetism
Valve, and water can freeze in mold 19.When it happens, by electric motor 23 (see Fig. 3) drivingly reversible tray, and
And generated ice cube is fallen out from mold 19, such as its mode are as follows: the electric heater unit of pallet 18 makes the ice cube surface
Thaw and be thus allowed to become easy movement or its mode are as follows: by the deformation of pallet 18 by the ice cube from mould 19
It releases and falls in the collection vessel 22 being arranged in below frame 16.

Such as the actual value of lattice temperature, and on the other hand allow users to determine the rated value of this operating parameter and/or input it
He instructs.
When case 12 is equipped with the water level sensor connecting with appliance control unit 10, then shown on user interface 24
An operating status in operating status can be the insufficient water level in case 12.
An instruction in the instruction that can be inputted on user interface 24 is the instruction for ice making.Appliance control unit
10 oneself do not implement the instruction, but the instruction is only passed to junior's electronic control unit 25 (as long as the water level in case 12 is not
In the state being not enough to for ice making), although the electronic control unit in Fig. 1 the reason of summary with frame 16 in order to divide
It shows with opening, but is mounted in the frame as actually more accurately being illustrated as after.
Junior's control unit 25 controls the actuator of ice machine 15,23 He of electric motor as already mentioned according to the instruction
Valve 21.Other actuator can be the same already mentioned heating device of pallet 18 or be projected into freezer in water pipe 13
In end section on electric heater unit 26.Because appliance control unit 10 in the transmitting of ice making command without the concern for:
With the presence or absence of these actuators, thus the same type of appliance control unit 10 can together with the different type of ice machine 15 work
Make so that the shell 1 of refrigerating appliance assembling and appliance control unit 10 in the shell installation and ice machine 15 after
The type that may be assembled in the freezer 3 of the ice machine independently carries out.
Junior's control unit 25 is to open valve 21 to the first reaction of the instruction for ice making, so as to filling to pallet 18
Water.In order to determine the time point for being again switched off valve 21, the water-level gauge of the water level monitored in ice mold 19 can be connected to junior
In control unit 25 or junior's control unit 25 always turns off valve 21 after the predetermined period.The period must
It must so determine, so that even if in the case where water tank 12 is filled and the case where correspondingly there are high pressures in water pipe 13
Under eliminate the spilling of mold 19.In order to avoid: the water level of the fluctuation in case 12 causes to generate the very different ice cube of size, can
Enough differences in height between case 12 and the outlet of pipeline 13 are arranged, or metering pump can be set on water pipe 13 as another
One actuator controlled by junior's control unit 25.
After closing valve 21, control unit 25 etc., which is ready to use in, makes the water in mold 19 freeze the required time.This when
Between can be fixedly predetermined.Because the water having been injected into is generally in the temperature of refrigeration lattice 2, the predetermined time can so be selected
Select so that when the temperature for refrigerating lattice and freezer 2,3 be located at can be by the upper limit for the value range that user is adjusted when, the time is rigid
It is sufficiently used for well freezing to refrigerate the water that lattice temperature is injected.For more efficient ice making, additional temperature sensing can be arranged
Component of the device 27 as ice machine 15 to sense the temperature of 18 surrounding air of pallet, and makes the temperature sensor and control
Unit 25 connects, and the control unit is allowed to be determined as the waiting time of the function of institute's sensing temperature.
Also this temperature sensor 27 can be used, to be to be used to prevent pipeline 13 by the power regulation of heating device 26
Freeze required minimum value.
After by the waiting time, control unit 25 starts electric motor 23, to solve when necessary to ice cube surface
Reversible tray 18 and the ice cube is thrown in collection vessel 22 after jelly.As a result, in simplest situation, control is single
The reaction of first 25 pairs of ice making commands terminates.However, it is possible to consider: control unit 25 gives pallet again after described throw
18 fill waters, so to start new ice making cycle, and ice making cycle so carries out for a long time in succession, until otherwise use
The sensor report on ice making command or (simply by the presence of) collection vessel 22 is withdrawn at family: the collection vessel is full.
The difference of that refrigerating appliance of the refrigerating appliance and Fig. 1 of Fig. 2 is multiple aspects that can independently realize each other.
