Abstract

An ice-making device for a refrigerator and method for controlling the same, which is designed to separate ice through a simple process. The ice-making device for a refrigerator includes an ice tray (146) defining an ice-making space, an ice core member that is partly received in the ice-making space to make ice at an end thereof, a driving unit moving and rotating at least one of the ice tray and the ice core member, and a power transmission unit for transferring power from the driving unit to the ice core member. The ice on the ice core member starts being separated in a state where the ice is spaced apart from an outer surface of the ice tray.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an ice making device for a refrigerator and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] Typically, refrigerators are used to store food or other things at low temperatures. The refrigerator has a plurality of storage compartments for storing food. Each storage compartment has an open side for putting food in and out. [0003] Refrigerators with dispensers for dispensing ice and water have recently been developed. The dispenser is connected to a water tank for storing the water to be supplied. [0004] The refrigerator is provided with an ice making apparatus for making ice using water supplied from the water tank. The ice making device may be installed in a refrigerator body or a refrigerator door. [0005] When the ice making apparatus is provided in the refrigerating compartment, the ice making apparatus needs to be formed in a heat insulating structure to maintain a low temperature environment. A channel is...
