Abstract

A refrigerator and a fullan ice level sensing apparatus, the are provided. The refrigerator including a refrigerator may include a main body, and a fullan ice level sensing apparatus provided with including an electronic optical element unit for sending or receiving a signal, and an alignment unit device for aligning and maintaining alignment of the electronic optical element unit in a preset direction, and configured to. The sensing apparatus may sense whether an ice bank for storing ice cubes make storage container in which ice cubes made by an ice maker disposed at the refrigerator main body is at a full ice level, whereby. the The electronic optical element unit is allowed to may be aligned at a preset position by, thus preventing the movement of the electronic optical element unit, resulting in improvement of improved reliability of the sensing of the full ice level apparatus.
