  • Patent number: 10907876
    Abstract: A flow-type ice maker including substrate, an ice-making part configured by a refrigerant pipe connected to a refrigerator and through which a refrigerant circulates in an airtight manner, an ice-making rack supporting the refrigerant pipe and including an ice mold formed along an outer periphery of the refrigerant pipe, an ice-making water flow part joined to an upper part of the ice-making rack and allowing ice-making water to flow into the ice-making rack, and an ice-separating member to rotating around a direction parallel to the axis center of the refrigerant pipe to separate ice formed in the ice mold, and an ice-making water feed pipe feeding ice-making water to the ice-making water flow part. The refrigerant pipe has a curved part; and an outer periphery of a pipe made of any one of copper and aluminum is covered with stainless steel.

  • Publication number: 20160298892
    Abstract: A flow-down type ice making machine includes an ice making unit and an ice making water supply tube. The ice making unit includes a refrigerant tube connected to a refrigerating machine, air-tightly circulating a refrigerant therein, an ice making rack configured to support the refrigerant tube, including ice molds formed along an outer periphery of the refrigerant tube, an ice making water flow-down portion connected to an upper part of the ice making rack, causing ice making water to flow down to the ice making rack, and an ice cube release member turned about axis thereof parallel with an axis of the refrigerant tube to release each of ice cubes formed on the ice molds. The ice making water supply tube supplies ice making water to the ice making water flow-down portion, and is formed by removably coupling a plurality of ice making cells.

  • Patent number: 9038411
    Abstract: An ice maker has an ice-making vessel having a cylindrical shape, a cooling means, a block ice making mold which is placed inside, and an agitator. The mold includes a main mold body having a plurality of connected L-shaped plates projected radially outward from the central axis; a base plate which is joined to each L-shaped plate, and the top side of the L-shaped plates form a screw insertion part of the mold body such that the agitator fits between the L-shaped plates at a second end of the central axis.
