- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an ice tray according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- Fig. 2 is a perspective view of the ice tray viewed from below.
- Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the ice tray taken along line BB.
- the ice tray (hereinafter referred to as “dish”) 11 has a tray section 14 and water inlets 14 A and 14 B for injecting water from a water supply valve (not shown) into the tray section 14.
- the tray section 14 has a surface (first surface) on which a plurality of semicircular cells 12 for temporarily retaining water are provided. Side walls of adjacent cells 12 allow water to enter and exit from each other. Grooves 13 are provided. That is, the tray portion 14 has a major axis direction 10 and a minor axis direction substantially perpendicular thereto, and has a substantially rectangular upper surface. In the configurations of FIGS. 1 and 2, seven cells 12 are arranged in one row.
- the tray portion 14 is preferably made of a metal having high thermal conductivity in order to improve heat dissipation, and more preferably made of an aluminum alloy. Such aluminum-based materials have high thermal conductivity and low specific gravity. Therefore, the weight of the plate 11 can be reduced.
- the frame 14 C and the mounting arm 9, which are regions other than the cells 12 of the tray portion 14, may be formed of a plastic resin for weight reduction.
- the heater 16 for heating the tray section 14 is integrally formed on the bottom (second surface) 17 side of the tray section 14. Further, it is preferable that a plurality of fins 15 are provided on the bottom surface 17 and the side surface 20 of the tray portion 14.
- the fins 15 are plate-shaped, and arranged so that the surface having the largest area is substantially perpendicular to the major axis direction 10 of the tray section 14. More preferably, it is integrally molded.
- the integrally molded plate 11 is an aluminum die-cast product. When the aluminum is poured into the mold, the heater 16 is wrapped and solidified, so that the tray section 14 and the heater 16 are integrated. Has been The heater 16 is U-shaped, and the entire bottom 17 of the tray section 14 is It is preferable to heat uniformly.
- the lead wire 16 A is joined to a heater wire (not shown) provided inside the heater 16. Near the junction between the lead wire 16A and the heater wire, a junction 16B covered with rubber or the like is formed for insulation and drip-proof.
- the operation and action of the ice tray configured as described above will be described below.
- water is supplied from a water supply pulp (not shown) to the predetermined cell 12 of the dish 11 via the water inlet 14A or 14B, the water is adjacent through the groove 13 Flows into the cell 1 2 and the water is supplied to all the cells 1 2.
- about 105 ml of water is supplied so that about 15 ml of water enters one cell 12.
- the water supplied to the dish 11 radiates heat from the tray section 14 and the water surface, and the temperature gradually decreases. In particular, cooling from the tray section 14 is promoted by the effect of the fins 15, and ice making is completed in a short time.
- the heater 16 is energized to heat the tray section 14 and the ice peels from the tray section 14.
- the ice on the plate 11 is discharged by an ice discharging claw (not shown). Since the heater 16 is integrally formed with the tray section 14, the adhesion between the tray section 14 and the heater 16 is stable, the heating of each cell 12 is performed uniformly, and ice Is discharged well. Therefore, it is not necessary to lengthen the power supply time to the heater 16 unnecessarily, and the power supply to the heater 16 can be stopped by a short time (not shown) when the temperature becomes appropriate. As a result, the energization time of the heater 16 is shortened, leading to a reduction in power consumption.
- the heater 16 is integrally formed with the tray portion 14, the heater 16 is not exposed to the atmosphere such as a freezing room. Therefore, there is no need to consider corrosion more than necessary, and inexpensive materials such as iron pipe heaters can be used for the heater 16. In addition, when the heater 16 is brought into close contact with the tray section 14, it is not necessary to fix a screw or the like, so that the number of assembling steps is reduced.
- tray section 14 and the fin 15 are integrally molded, There is no contact thermal resistance between the lay part 14 and the fin 15. Therefore, high heat conduction is realized between the tray section 14 and the fin 15, heat exchange is further promoted, and water freezes in a short time.

- the plate-like fins 15 are preferably provided substantially parallel to the direction in which the cool air flows. In these configurations, the number of edges 15 A where heat transfer is most active is much higher than if the fins were placed almost parallel to the long axis of tray 14, and the heat transfer to the cool air would be greater. Exchange is facilitated. In addition, the flow of cold air becomes smoother, the difference in heat transfer at the position of the major axis direction 10 is reduced, and the difference of the ice making speed at the position of the cell 12 is reduced.
- the position at which a sensor (not shown) for detecting the completion of ice making can be attached to the tray portion 14 can be freely set, thereby increasing the degree of freedom in structural design.
- the arrangement angle between the surface of the fin 15 having the largest area and the major axis direction 10 of the tray portion 14 may not be strictly a right angle. In other words, the plane including the largest area of the fin 15 intersects the long axis direction of the tray 14 It may just be arranged so that.
- a notch 18 is preferably provided in the U-shaped portion 19 of the heater 16 protruding from the tray portion 14. This makes it possible to support the heater 16 at three points, that is, the exposed portions 16C and 16D of the heater 16 and the cutout portion 18 protruding outside the tray portion 14. Therefore, the position of the heater 16 at the time of integral molding is stabilized, and the heater 16 and the tray portion 14 are easily integrally molded.
- the heater 16 is supported in a well-balanced manner during the integral molding, and the position of the heater 16 is further stabilized.

- the fins 25 are formed by dividing a plate-like fin into a large number by slits 24. That is, the fin 25 has a comb shape having a large number of protrusions 25B.
- This configuration increases the most active edge 25 A of heat transfer. That is, the turbulence is promoted and the leading edge effect is increased. Therefore, heat exchange between the tray section 14 and the cold air is promoted, and ice making is completed in a short time.
- the shape of the projection 25B of the fin 25 is a spire or needle shape that becomes thinner toward the tip.
- the volume of the fin 25 can be reduced without impairing the heat exchange performance, and the material cost is also reduced.
- the fin 15 is more preferably provided with a cut-and-raised portion 40 having an opening 4OA for the flow of the cool air.
