Abstract: A power control structure for ice makers includes a control box to control an ice making process and a transmission means located in the control box. The transmission means has a movement range within which an ON/OFF switch is located. A retrievable ice collection tray is provided which has an actuation wall. The transmission means is coupled with an actuation arm extended to a loading/unloading displacement of the actuation wall. When the ice collection tray is unloaded the actuation wall pushes the actuation arm to drive the transmission means to trigger the ON/OFF switch to suspend the ice making process. When the ice collection tray is reloaded the actuation wall pushes the actuation arm again to drive the transmission means to trigger the ON/OFF switch a second time to trigger the ON/OFF switch to start the ice making process of the ice maker.

Abstract: A packable ice level sensing architecture, mounted on an ice maker, for detecting an ice amount of the ice maker is disclosed. The packable ice level sensing architecture includes a sensing component and a limit structure linked to the sensing component. The sensing component is mounted at one side of the ice maker through a pivot, wherein the sensing component is foldable toward the ice maker through taking the pivot as an axle, so that the sensing component can have a sensing position and a packed position corresponding to the ice maker. The limit structure has a limit component linked to the pivot for limiting the sensing component at the sensing position or the packed position, and the sensing component can produce a pulling stroke, corresponding to the ice maker, for releasing a limiting relationship between the limit component and the pivot.

Abstract: A microswitch that is easy to assemble and manufacture. The microswitch of this invention constantly keeps the connecting section of a resilient component for opening/closing an electric switch in contact with the first conductive section of a first conductive terminal in the main body of the microswitch, and houses a plate-shaped second conductive section with a contact area inside the main body. The first and second conductive sections of the resilient component generate signals preset by the microswitch for an initial signal connection state to a final connection state by a displacement produced by pressing a press button on a contact area of the second conductive terminal in order to increase the distance required for controlling the signal connection and allow the resilient component to have an effective deformation and provide the best resilience of the press button.
