  • Patent number: 6158564
    Abstract: The ice cube guide of the invention is in the nature of a chute (tubular or otherwise) having a cross-section to allow it to be held comfortably by hand either directly or with a handle, having top and bottom open ends, with the top end being cut at an angle to allow the chute to be removably inserted into a compartment of a freezer door ice dispensing mechanism in a manner such that the top end of the chute is situated directly below the opening from which ice cubes are dispensed, and with the lower end extending beyond and outside the outer edge of the bottom of the ice dispenser compartment, to permit ice cubes falling from the dispenser's opening to be directed into the opening of the chute, and from there through the chute to exit from the bottom of the hand-held chute outside the ice dispenser compartment.
