Ice machine for air-cooled refrigerator and control method of ice machine for air-cooled refrigerator

Abstract

The invention discloses an ice machine for an air-cooled refrigerator and a control method of the ice machine for the air-cooled refrigerator. The ice machine comprises a water storage device and an ice making device. The control method of the ice machine includes the steps that a switch signal of the position of a water storage device body is firstly detected, then a water pump is controlled by an electric control device to be started for Z seconds, whether ice making is completed or not is detected, whether an ice storage box is filled with ice or not is detected, deicing is carried out if the ice storage box is not filled with the ice, then water injection is carried out, whether the rising temperature is higher than 5 DEG C or not after water injection is carried out is judged, if the rising temperature is lower than or equal to 5 DEG C, the ice making process is restarted, and if the rising temperature is higher than 5 DEG C, the ice making process is restarted after the ice making state is kept for 90 minutes. According to the ice machine for the air-cooled refrigerator and the control method, the amount of the supplied water is accurate, ice making completing conditions can be accurately judged, whether the ice storage box is filled with ice blocks or not is accurately detected through fewest elements, structural design is optimized, the motion matching effect is good, the manufacturing cost is reduced, and a water injection pipe is prevented from being blocked by freezing.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ice making machines, in particular to an ice making machine for a refrigerator and a method for controlling ice making through an ice making temperature sensor and ice making time. Background technique [0002] With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, domestic residents have begun to have the habit of eating ice, which makes the demand for household refrigerator ice machines continue to rise. Although there were ice boxes in the previous refrigerators, most of them were made artificially. Water injection, deicing, etc. all need to be done manually, which cannot meet the needs of people to use ice at any time. [0003] In the traditional electromagnetic valve type refrigerator ice machine, the water storage box is placed upside down on the ice making box, and the water outlet valve faces downward. The ice machine works normally, but the ice making method is unreliable. [0004] At pr...
