TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of household ice makers, in particular to a spray type ice maker. BACKGROUND
[0002] An ice maker is a refrigeration device that generates ice by cooling water through an evaporator assembly and a refrigeration system of a compressor; its evaporator ice-making method includes: (1) immersion type, which fills a water tank with water; (2) spray type, which sprays water through a nozzle; (3) flow type, which flows water from top to bottom at an inclined water place; and (4) various ice-making methods such as using an ice-making grid. However, there are few household spray type ice makers, mainly because the spray type ice maker has a complex structure, a large size, and a high cost, which is not suitable for household use.
[0003] Among existing household ice makers, a small spray type ice maker and an ice-making method thereof provided in patent publication "CN217464992U" uses a spray ice-making method, continuously sprays water upward on an evaporator by using a water pump, and because the flowing water can reduce air content, the ice produced is more transparent and hard, which cannot be compared with the opaque ice blocks of immersion type, flow type, and extrusion type ice makers. Therefore, the ice blocks produced by the spray type ice maker are widely used in alcoholic or beverage drinks.
[0004] However, in the existing household spray type ice maker, a drain pump needs to be additionally provided to pump the excess water in the ice storage box to the evaporator when the ice is removed, resulting in a complex structure and a large size of the ice maker. In addition, in the existing spray type ice maker, the water inlet temperature often exceeds 5℃, causing the pre-cooling time to be prolonged, the ice-making period to be increased, and the ice output speed to be slow, which often requires a long waiting time for the user, and cannot effectively meet the user's demand. Moreover, after long-term use, the spray head or pipeline is clogged by scale and impurities, causing the entire spray system to be clogged, resulting in uneven water flow distribution, slow ice layer formation, and serious impact on ice-making efficiency.
[0005] In addition, the evaporator in the existing household ice maker is generally formed by stamping, bending and combining copper plates to form ice cells, and then a bent copper pipe is tin soldered on the back of the ice cell as a circulating channel for refrigerant, and then nickel is plated on the surface. The ice cell made of copper plate is prone to deformation, which causes the ice cubes produced to be prone to deformation and unable to guarantee consistent shape and size. Moreover, the deformed ice cubes are not easy to be removed, which causes the ice removal time to be prolonged. Meanwhile, the connection between the ice cell and the copper pipe adopts the tin soldering method, which is prone to tin soldering gap and tin soldering instability, causing the ice cell and the copper pipe, or the separation piece between the ice cells to fall off after continuous ice making and ice removal, and many other problems such as poor heat conduction of the ice cell and the copper pipe behind it. Because the welding area of the copper pipe and the copper plate is only 10% of the area of the copper pipe, and the refrigeration system of the ice maker utilizes the refrigeration and heat transfer through the welding points of the copper pipe and the copper plate, the effective contact area between the copper pipe and the copper plate is small, the heat transfer efficiency is not high, the cold energy of the refrigeration system of the ice maker cannot be fully utilized by the copper plate on the ice cell, the other side of the copper pipe which is not connected with the copper plate will release the cold source energy through air, resulting in energy waste, ineffective improvement of ice making efficiency, and slow ice making speed.
[0006] Therefore, it is urgent to improve the internal structure of the existing ice maker to improve its ice making efficiency and ice quality. SUMMARY
