Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an ice maker for use in a refrigerator and a refrigerator equipped with such an ice maker.
  • the simplest form of an ice maker for a refrigeration device is a bowl which can be filled with water and divided into a plurality of chambers and which can be placed in the freezer compartment of a refrigeration device in order to freeze the water therein.
  • the freezing process takes a long time, since cooling of the dish by contact with the evaporator of the freezer compartment is only possible at the bottom of the dish, provided that the evaporator itself forms the bottom of the freezer compartment.
  • the evaporator is generally arranged on the rear wall of the freezer compartment, so that the shell is cooled essentially only indirectly via air circulating in the freezer compartment and takes a long time.
  • An unforeseen need for ice cream cannot be met in the short term with this simple ice maker.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide an ice maker for a refrigeration device or a refrigeration device equipped with such an ice maker, which enable rapid ice making and yet can be implemented inexpensively.
  • the object is achieved by an ice maker with the features of claim 1 or a refrigeration device with the features of claim 6.
  • An essential feature of the ice maker according to the invention is the separation of its refrigerant circuit from that of a refrigerator, to which the ice maker can be used.
  • the refrigerant circuit of the ice maker according to the invention is inherently concluded; it contains its own refrigerant, separate from that of the refrigerator. This considerably simplifies the installation of the ice maker in a refrigeration device, since with a conventional refrigeration device only minor adjustments to the refrigeration device are necessary in order to be able to install the ice maker and passages between the refrigerant circuits of the refrigeration device and ice maker are not required.
  • the ice maker can be cooled to produce ice simply by exchanging heat on the second heat exchanger, which can be placed in a cooling zone of the refrigerator that reaches temperatures below 0 ° C. It is thus possible to cool the refrigerant circulating in the refrigerant circuit of the ice maker to such an extent that it is able to freeze water in the ice container via the first heat exchanger without the ice maker having to have its own refrigeration machine. Therefore, the ice maker according to the invention can be manufactured inexpensively.
  • the refrigerant of the ice maker therefore does not have to be operated in a thermodynamic cycle process, it can advantageously be selected so that it remains liquid in the entire refrigerant circuit under normal operating conditions of the ice maker. With a comparatively low volume throughput of the refrigerant circuit, larger amounts of heat can be transported than with a gaseous refrigerant.
  • the second heat exchanger is preferably designed as a reservoir for the refrigerant, i.e. its volume is larger than would be necessary from the point of view of efficient heat exchange when the refrigerant flows through. This makes it possible to store a large amount of cold refrigerant in the second heat exchanger as long as the ice maker is not being used. On the other hand, when it is put into operation, a large amount of cooled refrigerant is immediately available.
  • the ice maker is preferably provided with a pump to circulate the refrigerant.
  • This can advantageously be associated with a time switching device for controlling the operation of the pump. After the ice maker has been started by a user, this enables the pump to be switched off automatically after a period of time which is likely to be sufficient for the filled water to freeze. This ensures that the cooling zone of the refrigerator, in which the second heat exchanger is is brought, is not constantly supplied via this heat when this is no longer required to freeze the water in the ice bucket.
  • switching off the pump enables the finished ice to thaw on the surface in the ice bucket, which simplifies its removal from the ice bucket.
  • the refrigerator according to the invention has at least a first and a second cooling zone, which can be kept at different temperatures, and the ice container is arranged in the first and the second heat exchanger in the second cooling zone.
  • the ice container or the first heat exchanger connected to it thus contribute to cooling the first cooling zone, while the second cooling zone is heated by the second heat exchanger. While the operation of the ice maker increases the need for cooling capacity in the second cooling zone, that in the first cooling zone decreases accordingly, so that the overall cooling output requirement of the refrigeration device is not significantly influenced by the operation of the ice maker.
  • a space-saving accommodation of the second heat exchanger is possible in particular on the ceiling or on the floor of the second cooling zone.
  • the second heat exchanger preferably extends essentially over the entire width and / or depth of the second cooling zone.
  • the ice maker of the refrigeration device can advantageously be installed and removed. This means that when the icemaker is not in use, the space it occupies can be used for other refrigerated goods.
  • a connector for the power supply of the pump is preferably arranged on an inner wall of a cooling zone.
  • the refrigerant circuit between the first and the second heat exchanger is at least partially formed by flexible hoses.
  • this makes it possible to position the ice cream container in the first cooling zone at changing locations that are not currently occupied by refrigerated goods; on the other hand, this is made possible by the Hoses achieved mobility of the ice bucket in relation to the second heat exchanger, to store the ice maker in a space-saving manner when removed.
  • FIG. 1 shows a refrigeration device according to the invention with two cold compartments of different temperature separated by a partition, shown without a door, in a schematic view from the front;
  • FIG. 2 shows a perspective view of a first heat exchanger and an ice container of the ice maker according to the invention
  • Fig. 3 is a plan view of the second heat exchanger of the ice maker
  • Fig. 4 excerpts of the partition in the area near the door.
  • Fig. 1 shows a schematic front view of a refrigerator with an ice maker according to the present invention.
  • the refrigerator has two cooling zones, a refrigerator compartment or fresh cooler compartment 1 in the upper region of the appliance, which is kept at temperatures above 0 ° C. in normal operation of the refrigerator, and a freezer compartment 2 in the lower region, which is at temperatures below 0 in normal operation ° C is maintained.
  • the two compartments 1, 2 can be closed by a common door or preferably individually by separate doors, which are not shown in the figure.
  • An ice maker mounted in the refrigerator essentially comprises two assemblies 3, 4 which are arranged in the refrigerator compartment 1 and the freezer compartment 2, respectively.
  • the first assembly 3 comprises a first heat exchanger and an ice bucket and is shown in detail in FIG. 2; the second assembly comprises a pump and a second heat exchanger and is shown in detail in FIG. 3.
  • the two assemblies are connected to one another by refrigerant lines 5, 6.
  • the refrigerant lines 5, 6 can extend freely over the front edge of a horizontal partition 7 that separates the two compartments 1, 2 from each other demarcates. If every subject 1 and 2 is equipped with its own door, as shown in FIG.
  • a cutout 8 can be formed on the front edge of the partition 7, into which a closure body 9 can be inserted in such a way that complementary semi-cylindrical indentations 10 at the edges of the cutout 8 or the closure body 9 together limit passages for the refrigerant lines 5, 6, and at the same time the front edge 11 of the closure body 9 is flush with the partition 7.
  • Fig. 2 shows a possible embodiment of the first assembly 3 of the ice maker.
  • the first heat exchanger 12 of the assembly 3 is designed here as a hollow body made of metal or plastic, with two connecting pieces 13 for the refrigerant lines 5, 6 on a side wall of the heat exchanger and a plurality of compartments or depressions 14 on an upper side of the heat exchanger.
  • the front side wall of the first heat exchanger 12 is shown partially cut away to show partitions 15 which are arranged inside the heat exchanger and which force the heat transfer fluid flowing through it onto a meandering path which grazes the bottoms and side walls of all the depressions 14.
  • the entirety of the depressions 14 could already form the ice container.
  • a thin-walled shell 16 with a plurality of depressions 17 is provided as the ice container, which are dimensioned to engage positively in the depressions 14 of the first heat exchanger 12.
  • the ice container 16 can be removed after the freezing of water in its recesses 17 without having to remove the first heat exchanger 12 at the same time.
  • FIG 3 shows a top view of a possible configuration of the second heat exchanger 18 of the ice maker. This is constructed from two flat plastic half-shells which are welded to one another along their edges and along a plurality of lines 20 in order to define a meandering flow path for the refrigerant.
  • the volume of the second heat exchanger 18 is of a similar order of magnitude as that of the ice container 16. This makes it possible, at least at the beginning of an ice-making process, to cool the water in the ice container 16 with a considerably higher output than the output exchanged on the second heat exchanger 18.
  • An electrically driven pump 21 for the refrigerant is fastened to the second heat exchanger 18 and has two connecting pieces 22, 23, one 22 of which is provided for connecting to one of the refrigerant lines 5, 6 and the other 23 opens into the second heat exchanger 18.
  • Another connecting piece 24 for connecting to one of the refrigerant lines 5, 6 is arranged on the upper half-shell of the second heat exchanger 18.
  • An electrical supply cable 25 of the pump carries a plug 26.
  • a socket (not shown), which is complementary to the plug 26, for the power supply of the pump 21 is arranged on the inner wall of the freezer compartment 2.
  • a control circuit is attached to the pump 21. It is designed to supply the pump 21 with electricity for a period of time after a user has pressed a switch, the length of which is selected so that it is sufficient to freeze water filled in the ice container 16. After the time period, the control circuit turns off the pump 21.
  • the ice in the ice bucket now slowly begins to thaw, which is quite desirable since the pieces of ice formed in the individual depressions 17 of the ice bucket 16 are easier to remove when they are thawed on the surface.
  • control circuit intermittently supplies the pump 21 with current after the time period has elapsed, the duration of the switch-on phases of the pump in intermittent operation being selected such that thawing of the ice is avoided even over a long period of time ,
  • the edge lengths of the essentially rectangular second heat exchanger 18 correspond essentially to the width and depth of the freezer compartment 2, so that the second heat exchanger 18 is placed in a simple manner by placing on projections formed on the side walls of the freezer compartment or by engaging rails arranged on these walls can be.
  • the second heat exchanger 18 can be loosely placed on a tier 27, which is arranged at a short distance of a few centimeters from the ceiling of the freezer compartment 2. This variant is particularly useful if the ice maker can be assembled and disassembled by a user in the refrigerator, since the tiered stand 27, if it does not carry the second heat exchanger 18, then can be used as a carrier for cold packs or the like.
  • An alcohol or alcohol mixture or an alcohol-water mixture is particularly suitable as the refrigerant for the ice maker.
  • the pump and possibly its control circuit can of course also be contained in the first assembly.
  • freezer compartment 2 can also be arranged at the top of the refrigerator and the normal or fresh cooling compartment 1 below it; in this case there is space for the second heat exchanger at the bottom of the freezer compartment 2.
