Description

Ice making assembly, ice making machine and refrigerator

Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to an ice making assembly, an ice making machine, and a refrigerator.

Background

An ice maker is a machine for making ice. The ice maker may be installed in the refrigerator as a part of the refrigerator, or may be used alone.

A twist ice-shedding type ice maker is becoming a trend. Such ice makers include ice making trays, for example, plastic ice making trays. After the water is injected into the ice-making tray, ice blocks with the same shape as the ice-making grooves of the ice-making tray are formed. Then, the ice-making tray is de-iced by twisting.

The twist de-icing type ice maker does not include a water injection tank. Therefore, the water falls into the ice making groove from a high position, causing the water to splash outside the ice making groove. Further, the twist ice-shedding type ice maker is difficult to install in a refrigerator in which a non-twist ice-shedding type ice maker having a water injection tank is originally installed because the positions of water injection ports do not match.

SUMMERY OF THE UTILITY MODEL

At least some embodiments of the present disclosure provide an ice-making assembly for making ice, comprising: a bracket including a first stop portion; an ice-making tray mounted to the bracket and including a plurality of ice-making grooves, a first rotation end portion and a second rotation end portion at both ends of a rotation axis, and a second stopper portion disposed adjacent to the second rotation end portion; and a water injection tank fixed to the bracket near the second rotation end and including: a water injection channel; and an outlet communicating with the water filling passage, wherein the ice making tray is rotatable about a rotation axis with respect to the holder between a first position in which the outlet and the second stopper portion are located on the same side with respect to the rotation axis and a second position in which the first rotation end portion is rotated by a first angle and the second stopper portion abuts against the first stopper portion such that the second rotation end portion is rotated by a second angle smaller than the first angle.

The ice-making assembly includes a water flooding tank. Therefore, water can be guided by the water injection pipe to enter the ice making groove through the water injection groove, so that splashing of the water is avoided. And, the water filling tank can be used to match the position of the water filling pipe, thereby improving the versatility of the ice making assembly.

Since the outlet and the second stopper portion are located on the same side with respect to the rotation axis, the water injection groove is allowed to be designed not to interfere with the ice-making tray, especially when the ice-making tray is in the second position.

For example, in some embodiments, the outlet is located above an ice making groove of the plurality of ice making grooves adjacent to the second stopper portion.

For example, in some embodiments, the water injection channel comprises a first channel section extending in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis and a second channel section extending in the direction of the rotation axis, the outlet being provided at the second channel section.

For example, in some embodiments, the water injection tank further comprises an inlet opening for connection with a water injection pipe such that the water injection pipe communicates with the water injection channel, the inlet opening being provided in the wall surface of the first channel section.

For example, in some embodiments, the ice-making tray further includes an escape notch configured such that no interference occurs between the ice-making tray and the water injection groove when the ice-making tray is in the second position, the escape notch and the second stopper portion being located on opposite sides with respect to the rotation axis.

For example, in some embodiments, the ice-making tray further includes a first inclined surface, and the water filling passage includes a second inclined surface at the outlet, and at least a portion of the first inclined surface is positioned adjacent to and below the second inclined surface when the ice-making tray is at the first position.

For example, in some embodiments, the ice-making tray includes an extended wall extending on a common outer edge of at least portions of the plurality of ice-making grooves and higher than the plurality of ice-making grooves, the first inclined surface being provided at the extended wall.

For example, in some embodiments, the extension wall includes a first extension segment proximate the second rotational end, the first angled face being disposed at the first extension segment.

For example, in some embodiments, the extension wall includes a first extension section near the second rotation end and a transition groove provided in the first extension section, a bottom surface of the transition groove serving as the first inclined surface.

For example, in some embodiments, the ice-making tray further includes an escape notch configured such that no interference occurs between the ice-making tray and the water injection groove when the ice-making tray is in the second position, the escape notch and the second stopper portion being located on opposite sides with respect to the rotation axis, the escape notch being provided in the extension wall.

For example, in some embodiments, the ice-making assembly further comprises a drive unit coupled to the first rotating end to drive the ice-making machine to rotate about an axis of rotation.

For example, in some embodiments, the ice-making tray is made of a plastic material.

At least some embodiments of the present disclosure provide an ice maker including an ice making assembly as described above.

At least some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a refrigerator including the ice maker as described above.

Some embodiments according to the present disclosure provide an ice making assembly for an ice maker that includes a bracket, an ice making tray mounted to the bracket, and a water injection tank mounted to the bracket. The bracket includes a first stop portion. The ice-making tray includes: a plurality of ice-making grooves for receiving water to make ice; a first rotating end; a second rotation end portion, the first rotation end portion and the second rotation end portion being located at both ends on the rotation axis; and a second stopper portion disposed adjacent to the second rotation end portion. The water injection groove is fixed to the bracket near the second rotation end and includes a water injection passage for guiding water into the plurality of ice making grooves and an outlet communicating with the water injection passage. The ice-making tray is rotatable relative to the bracket about a rotational axis to transition between a first position for storing water and making ice and a second position for twisting to de-ice. In this first position, i.e. for example a horizontal position, the outlet and the second stop portion are located on the same side with respect to the axis of rotation. Relative to the first position, in the second position, the first rotating end is rotated a first angle and the second stop portion abuts the first stop portion such that the second rotating end is rotated a second angle that is less than the first angle.

In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the ice making assembly includes a water injection tank. Therefore, water can be guided by the water injection pipe to enter the ice making groove through the water injection groove, so that splashing of the water is avoided. And, the water filling tank can be used to match the position of the water filling pipe, thereby improving the versatility of the ice making assembly.

Further, in the embodiment, since the outlet and the second stopper portion are located on the same side with respect to the rotation axis, the water injection groove is allowed to be designed not to interfere with the ice-making tray, particularly when the ice-making tray is in the second position.

Fig. 1 illustrates a portion of an ice maker including an ice making assembly according to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure. Fig. 2 illustrates an ice-making assembly according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the ice making assembly includes a bracket 10, an ice making tray 20, a water filling groove 30, and a driving unit 40. The bracket 10 is fixed to a housing of the ice maker, and the ice making tray 20, the water injection groove 30, and the ice making tray 20 may all be mounted to the bracket 10. The water injection groove 30 communicates with the water injection pipe 50 to guide water into an ice making groove 21 (to be described below) of the ice making tray 20. In some embodiments, an ice maker including an ice making assembly is installed in a refrigerator, and the refill pipe 50 may be the refill pipe 50 of the refrigerator. In these embodiments, the ice maker including the water injection tank 30 helps to match the position of the water injection pipe 50.

The ice making tray 20 is convertible between a first position and a second position about a rotation axis X (see fig. 9A).

Fig. 3A-6B are perspective views of an ice-making assembly according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, wherein in fig. 3A-4B, the ice-making tray 20 is in a first position, and wherein in fig. 5A-6B, the ice-making tray 20 is in a second position.

At the first position, water is guided into the ice making groove 21 of the ice making tray 20 via the water injection groove 30 and then ice is formed. The ice-making tray 20 is shifted to the second position according to the driving of the driving unit 40. In the second position, the ice maker is driven by the driving unit 40 to twist, thereby releasing the formed ice into the ice bank 60 below the ice making tray 20. For example, the user may pull out the ice bank 60 to take away the formed ice.

The driving unit 40 may include a driving motor, a transmission mechanism, a control circuit, and the like. Further, the driving unit 40 may also drive the ice-detecting lever 70 to detect the amount of ice in the ice bank 60 to control operations of ice making and ice releasing, etc., of the ice-making assembly according to the amount.

Fig. 7 illustrates a perspective view of the stand 10 of the ice-making assembly according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 7, the bracket 10 is a frame including an ice making tray mounting opening 12 and a driving unit mounting groove 13. The ice making tray 20 is mounted to the ice making tray mounting opening 12 to be rotatable about a rotation axis X with respect to the bracket 10, and the drive unit 40 is partially received in the drive unit mounting groove 13 to be fixed to the bracket 10. Further, the holder 10 further includes a first stopper portion 11 for cooperating with the ice making tray 20 and a first catching portion 14 for cooperating with a water injection groove 30 (to be described later).

Fig. 9A and 9B illustrate perspective views of the ice-making tray 20 of the ice-making assembly according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 9A and 9B, the ice making tray 20 includes a plurality of ice making grooves 21, a first rotating end 22, a second rotating end 23, and a second stopper portion 24.

The first and second rotating ends 22 and 23 of the ice-making tray 20 are pivotally mounted to the bracket 10 such that the ice-making tray 20 may rotate about the rotation axis X between the first and second positions. The first rotating end 22 is connected to the driving unit 40 such that the driving unit 40 drives the first rotating end 22 to pivot. The second rotation end 23 can pivot freely. The drive unit 40 may be disposed near the first rotating end 22.

The plurality of ice making grooves 21 communicate with each other. Therefore, it is possible to inject water to all the ice making grooves 21 by injecting water to only one ice making groove 21. Here, the water may also be other liquids, such as fruit juices and the like. As an example, as shown in fig. 9A and 9B, the plurality of ice making grooves 21 of the ice making tray 20 are arranged in a rectangular array of 2 × 5. The plurality of ice-making grooves 21 include a common short transverse edge and a long longitudinal edge. And the longitudinal edges are parallel to the rotation axis X and the transverse edges are perpendicular to the rotation axis X. In other embodiments, the plurality of ice making grooves 21 of the ice making tray 20 may also be integrally arranged in other shapes, for example, a trapezoid, an ellipse, etc.

The wall surface of the ice making groove 21 may be inclined to be gradually increased toward the opening direction to facilitate ice shedding. In the present embodiment, the ice making groove 21 has a rectangular cross section, but may have other shapes such as a circle, a star, etc. And the shapes of the plurality of ice making grooves 21 may be different.

The second stop portion 24 is arranged on the first side a with respect to the rotation axis X.

As shown in fig. 3A-4B, when the ice-making tray 20 is in the first position, the ice-making tray 20 is in a horizontal position. As shown in fig. 5A to 6B, when the ice making tray 20 is at the second position, the first rotating end 22 is rotated by a first angle and the second rotating end 23 is rotated by a second angle with respect to the first position. When the ice making tray 20 is at the second position, the second stopper portion 24 abuts against the first stopper portion 11, i.e., is stopped by the first stopper portion 11. Thus, the second angle is smaller than the first angle. For example, the first angle may be about 180 °, and the second angle may be about greater than 90 ° but less than 180 °, such as 150 °. Since the first angle and the second angle are not equal, the ice-making tray 20 is twisted to facilitate the ice in the ice-making grooves 21 to escape from the ice-making tray 20. Since the respective portions of the ice-making tray 20 are rotated more than 90 ° about the rotation axis X, ice released from the ice-making grooves 21 may fall downward into the ice bank 60.

As shown in fig. 3A-6B, the water injection slot 30 is fixed to the bracket 10 near the second rotating end portion 23.

Fig. 8A and 8B illustrate perspective views of the water injection groove 30 of the ice making assembly according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 8A and 8B, the water injection groove 30 includes a water injection passage 31, an inlet opening 32, an outlet 33, and a second catching portion 34. The water injection tank 30 may be fixed to the bracket 10 by the second catching portion 34 catching to the first catching portion 14. In other embodiments, the water injection tank 30 may be fixed to the bracket 10 in other manners. For example, the water injection groove 30 may be fixed to the bracket 10 using a screw, or the water injection groove 30 may be further bonded to the bracket 10.

The inlet opening 32 may be provided in a wall surface of the water filling channel 31. The inlet opening 32 may be used to connect with the water filling pipe 50 such that the water filling pipe 50 communicates with the water filling channel 31. The water injection groove 30 finally injects water into the ice making groove 21 through the outlet 33.

In the present embodiment, the water injection pipe 50 communicates with the water injection passage 31 via the inlet opening 32 of the water injection tank 30 to guide water. Accordingly, the position of inlet opening 32 may be adjusted to fit the position of fill tube 50, which increases the versatility of the ice-making assembly.

The water filling channel 31 may comprise a first channel section 311, a second channel section 312 and a transition channel section 313 between the first channel section 311 and the second channel section 312. The first channel section 311 extends in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis X. Here, the first passage section 311 extending in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis X means extending substantially in the direction, and the first passage section 311 may extend along a straight line or a curved line, and may be slightly offset from the direction perpendicular to the rotation axis X. The second channel section 312 extends in the direction of the axis of rotation X. Here, similarly, the second channel section 312 extends in the direction of the rotation axis X means extends substantially in that direction. The inlet opening 32 may be provided at the first channel section 311 and the outlet 33 may be provided at the second channel section 312. Thus, the outlet 33 may be offset with respect to the inlet opening 32 in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis X and in a direction of the rotation axis X. The inlet opening 32 may be provided in a wall surface of the first channel section 311.

As shown in fig. 3A-4B, when the ice making tray 20 is in the first position, the outlet 33 is located at the first side a with respect to the rotation axis X. The offset arrangement of the outlet 33 with respect to the rotation axis X helps to avoid interference of the water injection groove 30 with the ice making tray 20, especially when the ice making tray 20 is in the second position. When the ice making tray 20 is at the second position, a portion of the ice making tray 20 on the second side B opposite to the first side a where the second stopper portion 24 is located is turned upward, easily touching the water injection groove 30.

In the present embodiment, for example, the outlet 33 may be located above the ice making grooves 21 adjacent to the second stopper portion 24 of the plurality of ice making grooves 21. In other embodiments, for example, the ice making grooves 21 on the first side a may be plural, (e.g., a plurality of ice making grooves 21 are arranged in a 4 × 6 array), and the outlet 33 may be positioned above one of the ice making grooves 21 on the first side a.

Further, as shown in fig. 9A and 9B, the ice making tray 20 may further include an escape notch 25, the escape notch 25 being located on the second side B with respect to the rotation axis X, that is, the escape notch 25 and the second stopper portion 24 being located on opposite sides with respect to the rotation axis X. That is, the escape notch 25 is provided at the upwardly turned portion of the ice making tray 20 such that the upwardly turned portion of the ice making tray 20 maintains a certain distance from the water injection groove 30 even at the second position. Therefore, the escape notch 25 helps to avoid interference of the water injection groove 30 with the ice making tray 20.

The ice-making tray 20 may include an extension wall 26, and in the present embodiment, the extension wall 26 is higher than the ice-making grooves and extends in a ring shape along a common edge (e.g., including two lateral edges and two longitudinal edges) of the plurality of ice-making grooves 21. The extension wall 26 includes a first extension section 261 extending on a common outer edge of the plurality of ice making grooves 21 near the second rotation end 23. In the present embodiment, for example, the first extension section 261 extends on a lateral edge along the vicinity of the second rotation end 23. In other embodiments, the extension wall 26 may also include only the first extension segment 2611.

The extension wall 26 may include a first inclined surface 2611, and the first inclined surface 2611 may be provided at the first extension section 261, for example, as an inner wall surface of the first extension section 261. In addition, the water injection tank 30 may further include a second inclined surface 3121 at the outlet 33. As shown in fig. 4A and 4B, when the ice making tray 20 is at the second position, at least a portion of the first inclined surface 2611 is positioned adjacent to and below the second inclined surface 3121. For example, the first inclined surface 2611 and the second inclined surface 3121 at least partially overlap. The first and second inclined surfaces 2611 and 3121 help smoothly guide water from the outlet 33 into the ice making groove 21, avoiding splashing of the water.

Fig. 10 illustrates a perspective view of an ice-making tray 20' of an ice-making assembly according to another embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 10, the ice making tray 20 'includes a plurality of ice making grooves, a first rotation end, a second rotation end, an extension wall 26' of a second stopper portion, and the extension wall 26 'includes a first extension section 261'. Unlike the embodiment shown in fig. 9A and 9B, in the embodiment shown in fig. 10, the ice making tray 20 'further includes a transition groove 262', the transition groove 262 'being provided in the first extension section 261'. The inner wall surface of the extension wall 26 ' of the ice making tray 20 ' is not the first inclined surface 2621 '. Alternatively, the bottom surface of the transition groove 262 'serves as the first inclined surface 2621'. The first inclined surface 2621' is positioned adjacent to the second inclined surface 3121 and below the second inclined surface 3121.

At least embodiments of the present disclosure also provide an ice maker including any of the ice-making assemblies described above.
