Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of ice making machines, and in particular to an ice making machine that is easy to assemble. Background Art

[0002] An ice maker is a device that makes ice cubes from water. It usually uses a refrigeration system to use water as a carrier to make ice cubes when powered on. The ice maker includes a casing, an ice-making system, an inner tank and a water tank. The water tank is used to store water for making ice. The water inside the water tank is pumped into the ice box of the ice-making system and is cooled and frozen by the ice-making system.

[0003] In order to ensure the ice-making efficiency, the ice-making machine usually needs to be surrounded by an insulation layer on the outside of the water tank for heat preservation. The existing ice-making machine either achieves heat insulation by injecting a foaming agent into the peripheral gap of the water tank to form an insulation layer after expansion, but the assembly process is complicated, and the insulation layer adheres to the periphery of the water tank, which is not convenient for maintenance; or the insulation effect is achieved by arranging an insulation sleeve made of insulation material outside the water tank. Although this insulation sleeve is easy to assemble, the insulation sleeve is directly exposed in the shell. The heat generated by other devices in the shell during operation can easily lead to accelerated aging of the insulation sleeve, which reduces the insulation efficiency and service life and increases the maintenance cost.

The partition shell is arranged on the side of the heat insulating sleeve close to the inner cavity to separate the heat insulating sleeve from the refrigeration component, so that the heat insulating sleeve is not easily directly exposed to the inner cavity.
