Problems solved by technology

It is also because of this that if the above-mentioned electronic devices are defective or malfunction, it will cause extremely adverse effects on the ice machine and the freezer.
Taking the temperature-sensing device as an example, if there is a short circuit of the device, the heater that uses the temperature-sensing device to control its on-off will not work normally; especially when the time to turn off the heater is inaccurate, the heating of the heater will seriously affect the freezing process. room cooling
However, the ice maker in the prior art does not have the means to detect whether the above-mentioned devices are working normally, so it is difficult to judge whether the ice maker is working normally or which devices have failed, and at the same time, it is necessary to adjust the amount of water injected into the ice making tank. bring difficulties

Embodiment Construction

[0022] As previously mentioned, the heater 15 in the ice maker is used only during the ice pushing action. That is to say, starting the heater 15 just means the start of the ice pushing action, and stopping the heating of the heater 15 means the end of the ice pushing action. Therefore, the on-off control process of the heater 15 in the present invention will be described together with the mechanical structure of the ice pushing action.

[0023] like figure 2 As shown, the motor 30 is the power device of the ice maker, and in addition to providing power for the rotation of the ice pushing rod 14, it also provides power for the cam 36 that detects full ice.

[0024] In order to sense the position of the ice ejector bar 14, a first magnet 56 is installed on one side of the gear 59 driven by the motor 30, and a first sensor 53 for sensing the first magnet 56 is installed on the control board 48, pushing The ice bar 14 is then coaxially installed on the rotating shaft 51 of the...

Abstract

A method for displaying the working state of ice maker includes detecting the drive states of all drivers in ice maker, and turning on the indicators always if all are correct, or flashing the indicators by predefined frequency if there is error state for indicating the failure position.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for detecting and displaying the working state of an ice maker. Background technique [0002] A frozen ice machine is a device that uses the cold air generated by the refrigeration cycle to make ice, such as Figure 1a and Figure 1b It is a schematic diagram of the structure of a general frozen ice machine. The ice maker is installed and fixed on the wall of the freezer through the connecting frames 2a, 2b above the ice-making tank 12. The ice-making tank 12 is made of a material (such as aluminum) with excellent thermal conductivity, and its cross-sectional shape is a half-moon shape. The water supply in the ice making tank 12 is carried out through the water supply pipe connection part 4 on one side. [0003] The upper end of the ice-making tank 12 is provided with an ice-pushing rod 14 , which is driven and rotated by a motor installed inside the box body 20 to push out completely frozen ice cubes in the ice-maki...
