Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an automatic ice dispenser for installation in a refrigeration appliance, in particular a household refrigeration appliance, and a refrigerator equipped with such an ice maker.
  • a refrigeration appliance in particular a household refrigeration appliance
  • a refrigerator equipped with such an ice maker comprises two functional groups, namely the actual ice maker, which comprises at least one cooled mold and optionally means for metering water into the mold and ejecting the finished pieces of ice, and an ice storage container in which stores the finished pieces of ice until use be, if necessary, with means for ejecting the pieces of ice out of the container.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide an ice dispenser, which is easier to install and remove and in which there is no risk of the operation of the ice maker in the absence of the ice storage container.
  • the object is achieved on the one hand by the Eisvorrats employergeophuse and the ice maker are connected to form a structural unit in an ice dispenser with an ice storage container and an ice maker, which comprises at least one fillable with water mold.
  • both can be installed and removed together, and the associated with the installation and removal of the ice maker expense is eliminated. Since the Ice maker is always taken together with the Eisvorrats employergeophuse, there is no need for means to inhibit the operation of the ice maker in the absence of the ice storage container.
  • both may have interlocking contours, which allow the assembly as possible only in a single configuration.
  • a cold air duct may be provided on the ice maker.
  • this has an opening into the Eisvorrats constituergephaseuse outlet, so that the guided through the channel air after the mold can also cool the ice stock.
  • the interlocking contours can be formed, in particular, in that a wall of the ice maker bounding the cold air duct engages in a complementary recess of the ice storage container housing.
  • the cold air duct extends below the mold.
  • the mold is cooled efficiently, on the other hand, the cold air can pass without passing through the mold without a significant deflection in the ice storage, which is preferably arranged slightly lower than the mold so that ice can get out of the mold by gravity into the ice storage.
  • the Eisvorrats interchangeergeophuse and the ice maker are attached to a common support member.
  • the common carrier part can in particular form a rear wall of the ice dispenser.
  • An upstream portion of the cold air duct, via which cold air can be supplied to the ice maker, can be expediently formed on the carrier part.
  • a wall of the upstream portion may conveniently be formed by two adjacent ribs and a sealing strip inserted in a space between the ribs. This sealing strip can connect tightly to the rear wall of the refrigerator or another suitable wall surface.
  • the Eisvorrats employergecher is preferably arranged in a first cavity for receiving the ice and a second cavity in which a drive motor of a mounted in the first cavity, is arranged for ejecting the ice from the storage container conveying tool.
  • This second cavity may be closed by the support member, such as to protect the motor or other internals of the second cavity from moisture.
  • the ice maker For ejecting ice from the mold, the ice maker preferably has a slide which can be moved through the mold. This eliminates the

  • a filling level sensor may be provided so as to be capable of crossing an inlet opening of the ice storage container. If the movement of the level sensor is obstructed by ice, the capacity of the ice storage container is exhausted. In this case, the ice maker should be switched off.
  • the invention further relates to a refrigerator with an ice dispenser of the type described above, to the housing of the ice maker is indirectly connected via the Eisvorrats constituergetude or a common with the Eisvorrats variousergephaseuse support member. Since the ice maker without the Eisvorrats constituergephaseuse is not mounted in the refrigerator, there is no possibility that he operated accidentally without the ice produced being able to be absorbed by the ice bin.
