[0002] The ice-making principle of the ice maker mainly includes refrigeration and ice formation. Generally, a refrigerant circulation system is used to absorb heat from water through processes such as evaporation, compression, condensation and expansion, so that the water temperature is lowered and ice is finally formed. The refrigeration system usually uses components such as a compressor, a condenser, an evaporator and an expansion valve.
