  • Patent number: 9863686
    Abstract: A device for adjusting a full-ice level includes: an ice making tray for making ice; an ice making tray fixing unit positioned on both sides of the ice making tray to support the ice making tray; an ice storage unit positioned below the ice making tray and for storing ice that is separated from and drops from the ice making tray; a full-ice level sensor for sensing the highest level of ice stored in the ice storage unit; a sensor guide on which the full-ice level sensor is installed, and positioned in the ice storage unit; and a motor on one side of the ice making tray fixing unit and coupled with the sensor guide, and for moving the sensor guide upward and downward in the ice storage unit.

  • Publication number: 20170314834
    Abstract: An ice making device in a refrigerator including light sensors to detect an ice level in the ice bucket. An ice level sensing unit is positioned lower than an upper edge of the ice bucket and thus can detect ice level even when the ice bucket is not completely full. The ice level sensing unit includes one or more pairs of light emitting sensor and light receiving sensor. When ice in the ice bucket accumulates to a detectable level, the amount of light emitted from the light emitting sensor and received by the light receiving sensor can be blocked accordingly.

  • Publication number: 20160370050
    Abstract: An ice maker includes a compressor, installed in the inside of a refrigerator door, for compressing a refrigerant; a condenser for condensing the compressed refrigerant from the compressor; an expansion valve for expanding the condensed refrigerant; and an ice making tray, having a channel through which the refrigerant from the expansion valve flows, allowing heat-exchange between the refrigerant introduced through the channel and water in the ice making tray to perform a process of making ice through the heat-exchange.

  • Publication number: 20150135759
    Abstract: A refrigerator includes an ice maker in a freezer and a water supply apparatus in a refrigerator chamber. The water supply apparatus is at a higher position than that of the ice maker and supplies water to the ice maker. The water supply apparatus includes a water tank configured to store water for making ice, a motor at one side of the water tank, a gear or other mechanism engaged with a driving shaft of the motor, and a second shaft connected to the gear, configured to open and close a water supply passage or hole in the water tank.
