Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ice making machines, in particular to an ice discharging and receiving device of a spray type ice making machine. Background Art
[0002] Ice maker is a refrigeration mechanical equipment that generates ice by cooling water through the evaporator by the refrigerant of the refrigeration system. It uses the refrigeration system and water as a carrier to make ice when the power is on. Water enters the water storage tank through the water inlet valve, and then is pumped to the diverter pipe by the water pump. The diverter pipe makes the water flow evenly to the evaporator cooled by the low-temperature liquid refrigerant. The water is cooled to the freezing point, and the water cooled to the freezing point will solidify into ice, while the water that is not frozen by the evaporator flows into the water storage tank again and restarts the circulation through the water pump. When the ice reaches the required thickness, it enters the de-icing state, and the high-pressure hot air discharged from the compressor is diverted to the evaporator through the reversing valve to replace the low-temperature liquid refrigerant. In this way, a layer of water film is formed between the ice and the evaporator. This layer of water film makes the ice separate from the evaporator, and the ice falls freely into the ice storage box below by gravity.
[0003] During the operation of the ice maker, ice cubes will fall into the built-in ice storage box of the ice maker. When the ice storage box is full of ice cubes and the reed switch cannot close automatically, the machine will automatically stop working. When enough ice cubes are taken away and the reed switch closes again, the machine will start after a delay of 3 minutes and re-enter the ice making process. After the ice receiving device of some ice makers receives a certain amount of ice cubes, ice cubes will accumulate and need to be cleaned manually using tools. These situations show that ice blockage is prone to occur during ice making, which reduces the ice making efficiency and affects the normal use of the equipment. Utility Model Content
