Abstract

A driving device for controlling an ice making action of an ice maker according to one embodiment is provided. The driving device includes: an outer cover, which forms an internal space; a driving part, which is arranged on one side of the internal space, and includes a driving motor that generates rotational force and a gear assembly that is driven by the rotational force generated by the driving motor; and an induction part , which is arranged on the other side of the interior space, senses the amount of ice cubes discharged from the ice maker. The induction part includes: a driving gear, which engages with one side of the gear assembly, and rotates within a first angle range; a magnetic contact member, on which a magnet is attached, contacts the driving gear, and rotates within a second angle range smaller than the first angle range; Rotate within an angle range; the sensor, which senses the movement of the magnet, outputs a first signal or a second signal according to the amount of ice cubes discharged from the ice maker.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a driving device and an ice maker and a refrigerator including the driving device. Background technique [0002] Refrigerators include a refrigerator in which various foods and beverages can be refrigerated and stored, and a freezer in which they can be refrigerated and stored. The refrigerator compartment and the freezer compartment are divided into different spaces by partitions, and are opened and closed by respective doors. An ice maker for a refrigerator that automatically makes ice can be provided inside the refrigerator, and the ice maker for a refrigerator includes a heater that heats the ice tray to facilitate the detachment of ice cubes when the ejector rotates . [0003] The ice machine includes a full ice sensing unit that senses a full state of ice cubes detached from the ice machine. The full ice sensing part can sense whether the ice detection arm is stuck on the ice cubes filled in the ice container and retur...
