Abstract

An ice dispenser capable of discharging a uniform amount of ice, thereby achieving an enhancement in product reliability and preventing a failure or malfunction of constituent elements is disclosed. A refrigerator equipped with the ice dispenser is also disclosed. The ice dispenser includes a case formed with an ice inlet (311 ) and an ice outlet (312), a stirring guide (320) for guiding ice from the case to the outlet (312) while stirring the ice, and a uniform-amount supplier (321 ) for feeding the ice guided by the stirring guide to the outlet (312) such that a substantially uniform amount of ice is discharged.
