Manually operated ice machine

Abstract

The invention relates to a manually operated ice machine which comprises an ice machine body, wherein a cavity which is used for accommodating an ice-making box and an ice storage box which is arranged on the lower part of the ice-making box are arranged in the ice machine body; a cover and a panel are arranged on the ice machine body; a knob is arranged on the panel; a first rotating shaft and a second rotating shaft are respectively arranged at the two ends of the ice-making box; the knob is connected to the first rotating shaft of the ice-making box through a transmission device; the second rotating shaft of the ice-making box is rotatably supported in the ice machine body; and the transmission device is composed of a pair of engaged bevel gears. According to the technical scheme, in the manually operated ice machine, the knob and the ice-making box are connected through the bevel gears, and the change in the direction of a force is realized by virtue of the application of the bevel gears, so that the ice machine can be placed at any position in a refrigerator and does not need be placed at a higher position in the refrigerator like a traditional ice machine. The manually operated ice machine can be simply and conveniently used in a manner of rotating the knob.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a manual ice maker, in particular to a manual ice maker placed in a refrigerator. Background technique [0002] At present, the ice maker in the refrigerator generally includes a fixed ice maker and a manual ice maker. The fixed ice maker needs to be fixed in a certain part of the refrigerator, and is not easy to disassemble, occupying the effective use space of the refrigerator; the manual ice maker The machine is generally composed of four parts: ice making tray, bracket, knob and ice storage box. There are connecting shafts at both ends of the ice making tray. The connecting shaft is fixed on the bracket through the connecting hole on the bracket, and is driven by turning the knob when in use. The ice cube trays are distorted, causing the ice cubes to fall off.

[0002] At present, the ice maker in the refrigerator generally includes a fixed ice maker and a manual ice maker. The fixed ice maker needs to be fixed in a certain part of the refrigerator, and is not easy to disassemble, occupying the effective use space of the refrigerator; the manual ice maker The machine is generally composed of four parts: ice making tray, bracket, knob and ice storage box. There are connecting shafts at both ends of the ice making tray. The connecting shaft is fixed on the bracket through the connecting hole on the bracket, and is driven by turning the knob when in use. The ice cube trays are distorted, causing the ice cubes to fall off

However, the axis of the knob of the general ice machine is perpendicular to the direction where people stand, so that the ice machine must be placed opposite to the person during use, that is, generally placed at a higher position in the refrigerator. On the opposite side of the human hand's range of motion, you need to bend over or turn your wrist when twisting the knob, which is extremely inconvenient to use
