Abstract

The invention discloses an ice machine and a refrigerator with the ice machine. The ice machine comprises a box, a water inlet pipe, an ice making box, a water supply pump, an evaporation tube and an ice removing part, wherein an ice making space, a water storage space and an ice discharging channel are arranged in the box; a water separator is arranged between the ice making space and the water storage space; a water-retaining part which allows ice blocks to pass through but prohibits water to pass through is arranged between the ice making space and the ice discharging channel; the water inlet pipe is used for supplying water to the water storage space; the ice making box is provided with a plurality of ice lattices; the ice making box is arranged on an ice making frame and the ice lattices downward face to the water separator; and the water supply pump is arranged in the water storage space and is connected with the water separator so as to inject water in the water storage space into the ice lattices through the water separator. According to the ice machine provided by the embodiment of the invention, the ice-making speed and the ice-making efficiency are high, the ice blocks are transparent, the ice is easily removed, and the ice is made in the refrigerating chamber of the refrigerator.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of household appliance manufacturing, in particular to an ice maker and a refrigerator with the ice maker. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of refrigerator technology, ice-making technology has gradually become an important part of refrigerator functions, and having an automatic ice-making system with excellent performance has become one of the indispensable factors to improve the overall grade of refrigerators. At present, the automatic ice machines used in household refrigerators can be roughly divided into two categories: one is the single-chip microcomputer control type commonly used in Japanese refrigerators, which is mainly composed of a motor, an ice probe, a temperature sensor and an ice tray (plastic) . The ice-making process is completed by a set of control programs. When the ice is off, the motor drives the ice-making tray (plastic) to rotate. After rotating to a cert...
