Abstract

Embodiments of the invention provide a refrigerator, comprising a main body having a food storage compartment therein; a door installed on the main body and having an ice compartment therein and for opening and closing the food storage compartment; a compressor, a condenser, and an expansion valve that are installed in the door; an ice maker installed in the ice compartment, the ice maker comprising a tray configured to receive and contain water therein; and a refrigerant pipe line coupling the compressor, the condenser, and the expansion valve to one another and configured to cool the tray by conduction, and wherein the ice maker further comprises a heater disposed on a perimeter of the tray and a drain duct disposed below the tray and configured to collect defrost water, and wherein a portion of the heater extends into the drain duct.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is based on and claims priority from Korean Patent Application No. 10-2015-0086082 filed on June 17, 2015, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. technical field [0003] Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to a refrigerator including an ice maker and a method for collecting defrosted water in the refrigerator. Background technique [0004] Refrigerators store food at a temperature lower than the ambient temperature surrounding the compartment. Refrigerators provide frozen or refrigerated storage of food depending on the type of food. [0005] The interior space of the refrigerator is cooled by a continuous supply of cold air. Through a cooling cycle including compression-condensation-expansion-evaporation processes, cool air is continuously generated by means of heat exchange of refrigerant. Cool air is uniformly supplied into the inner space ...
