이하, 본 발명에 따른 일실시예를 첨부한 도면을 참조하여 상세히 설명하면 다음과 같다.Hereinafter, an embodiment according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

도 5는 본 발명의 동작 흐름도로서, 이에 도시한 바와 같이 도 1에서 디스펜서(40)가 구비된 냉장고는 내부의 마이크로컴퓨터(미도시)로 부터 전달되는 소정의 신호에 의해 상기 급수제어밸브(13)를 제어하여 상기 급수제어밸브(13)와 연결된 급수관(31, 41) 중 어느 한쪽이 개방됨으로써, 상기 급수부(10)를 통해 유입되는 정화수가 제빙용기(33) 또는 냉장실의 디스펜서(40)로 공급되어 얼음 또는 물 상태로 대기하게 되고, 상기 제빙용기(33)에 급수완료 후, 일정시간 경과 후 온도감지센서(54)에서 제빙용기의 온도를 검지하여 제1 설정온도(T1)이면 급수가 완료된 것으로 판단하여 제빙행정을 실시하고, 상기 제빙시간이 일정시간 경과 후 다시 상기 제빙용기(33)의 온도를 검지하여 제2 설정온도(T)이면 제빙이 완료된 것으로 판단하고, 검빙레버(55)를 작동시켜 상기 얼음저장용기(34) 내의 얼음량이 만빙인지를 판단한 후, 이 판단결과 만빙이 아니면 회동력발생부(51)를 회전시켜 상기 제빙용기(33)를 비틀어줌으로써, 상기 제빙용기(33) 내의 얼음(21)을 이빙시키고, 상기 판단결과 만빙이면 이빙행정을 진행하지 않고 일정시간 마다 재검빙하여 만빙이 아닐 경우에만 상기 이빙행정을 진행하도록 하며, 이빙행정이 완료되면 상기 제빙용기(33)에 물을 급수한 후, 상기의 제빙행정을 필러암(35)의 설정위치까지 반복 진행하도록 한다.FIG. 5 is an operation flowchart of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, the refrigerator equipped with the dispenser 40 is provided with a water supply control valve 13 by a predetermined signal transmitted from an internal microcomputer (not shown). ) By opening one of the water supply pipe (31, 41) connected to the water supply control valve 13, the purified water flowing through the water supply unit 10, the ice maker 33 or the dispenser 40 of the refrigerating chamber. After the water supply to the ice making container 33 is completed, and after a certain time has elapsed, the temperature sensor 54 detects the temperature of the ice making container and supplies water if the first set temperature is T1. Determines that the ice is completed and performs ice-making stroke. When the ice-making time reaches a predetermined time, the temperature of the ice-making container 33 is detected again and it is determined that ice-making is completed when the second set temperature (T) is reached. Operation) After determining whether the amount of ice in the ice storage container 34 is full of ice, and if the result of the determination is not full ice, by rotating the rotational force generating unit 51 to twist the ice making container 33, the ice in the ice making container 33 21) and the result of the determination, if the ice is full, re-examines every predetermined time without proceeding the ice ice, and proceeds the ice ice only when the ice is not iced, and waters the ice container 33 when the ice ice is completed. After the water is supplied, the ice making stroke is repeatedly performed to the set position of the filler arm 35.

상기 급수행정에서 냉동실 고내에 물이 급수되면 상기 제빙용기(33)의 온도가 상승하므로, 급수완료 후 상기 제빙용기(33)의 온도가 제1 설정온도(T1)가 아니면 급수가 완료되지 않은 것으로 판단하고, 재급수를 실시한다.When water is supplied to the freezer compartment in the water supply stroke, the temperature of the ice making container 33 rises, so that the water supply is not completed if the temperature of the ice making container 33 is not the first set temperature T1 after water supply is completed. Judging and rewatering.

재급수 완료 후, 상기 제빙용기(33)의 온도를 재 검지하여 제1 설정온도(T1)이면 제빙행정을 실시하고, 그렇지 않으면 상기 제빙용기(33)가 파손되어 급수가 진행되지 않았거나 힌지(52) 또는 돌기(53)가 파손되어 상기 제빙용기(33)가 제빙용기브라켓(50) 또는 회동력발생부(51)로 탈거된 것으로 판단하여 사용자에게 경고를 보낸다.After the rewatering is completed, the temperature of the ice making container 33 is redetected to perform an ice making stroke if the first set temperature is T1. Otherwise, the ice making container 33 is broken and water supply does not proceed or hinge ( 52) or the protrusion 53 is broken and determines that the ice maker 33 has been removed by the ice maker bracket 50 or the rotational force generating unit 51 and sends a warning to the user.

이상에서 설명한 바와 같이 본 발명 냉장고용 제빙용기 이상유무 제어방법은 제빙용기 또는 힌지 등에 이상이 발생하는 경우 이를 판단하여 사용자에게 알려줌으로써, 제빙기 사용의 효율 및 내구성을 증대시켜 소비자의 사용 만족도를 향상시키는 효과가 있다.As described above, the present invention relates to a method for controlling abnormality of the ice maker for refrigerators by determining whether an error occurs in the ice maker or the hinge and notifying the user of the problem, thereby increasing the efficiency and durability of the ice maker and improving consumer satisfaction.
