Flake ice maker and refrigerator with same

Abstract

The invention provides a refrigerator and a flake ice maker thereof. The flake ice maker comprises a shell, a core shaft and a scraping plate, wherein an accommodation cavity is formed in the shell; a shaft hole is formed in the shell; the core shaft is a hollow shaft which is arranged in the accommodation cavity; a first end of the core shaft extends out of the shell from the shaft hole; the first end of the core shaft is an opening through which water is injected into the core shaft, and a second end is closed; a water spraying hole is formed in the core shaft; the scraping plate is arranged on the core shaft; the scraping plate and the shell can relatively rotate; and an outer edge of the scraping plate is matched with an inner wall of the shell, so that ice which is formed on the inner wall of the shell can be scraped by using the scraping plate. According to the flake ice maker provided by the invention, flake ice can be directly made, so that the making efficiency of the flake ice is improved, flake ice particles are smaller, working noise is effectively reduced, and energy consumption is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of refrigeration, and in particular relates to an ice chip maker and a refrigerator with the same. Background technique [0002] In order to meet the diverse needs of users, most high-end refrigerators are currently equipped with an ice crushing machine in addition to the ice maker, which is used to make fluffy ice chips. [0003] However, in this system, the ice crusher depends on the ice maker. When the user needs to use ice chips, he first requires the ice maker to provide a certain amount of ice cubes, even if the user does not need block ice, and the ice making time It usually takes 120 minutes. [0004] The ice crushing machine generally realizes the ice crushing function through a fast-rotating reamer, which is noisy and consumes a lot of energy. [0005] A transmission system must be attached between the ice maker and the ice crusher, the structure is complex, the cost is high, and the transmission...
