[0025] In order to make the purpose and advantages of the utility model more clear, the utility model is specifically described in combination with the following embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is only used to describe one or several specific implementations of the utility model, and does not strictly limit the protection scope of the specific request of the utility model.

[0026] like Figure 1 - Figure 5 As shown, an ice maker air duct rear cover assembly comprises: an ice maker box 1, an observation mirror 3 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the ice maker box 1, an ice cube drawer 2 is plugged and connected inside the ice maker box 1, a control panel 4 is arranged on the top of the ice maker box 1, and an ice maker rear cover 5 is detachably connected to one side of the ice maker box 1;

[0027] The ice maker rear cover 5 includes a removable rear cover 9, on which a vertical grille 8 is arranged, which is rotatably connected to the removable rear cover 9, and a connecting buckle 6 is arranged between the removable rear cover 9 and the ice maker box 1, and the connecting buckle 6 is located on both sides of the upper position of the removable rear cover 9, and the observation mirror 3 is connected to the ice maker box 1 through the connecting buckle 6. A fan connecting block 10 is fixedly connected to the middle position above the side of the removable rear cover 9 away from the ice maker box 1, and an external fan 7 is arranged on the fan connecting block 10, and a sealing magnetic strip 18 is arranged on the side of the removable rear cover 9 close to the ice maker box 1.

[0028] Among them, the ice maker rear cover 5 is located at the rear position of the ice maker box 1, and the ice maker rear cover 5 is connected to the ice maker box 1 through a connecting buckle 6. A circle of sealing magnetic strips 18 are fixedly connected to the detachable rear cover 9, wherein the sealing magnetic strips 18 and the ice maker box 1 are magnetically adsorbed to ensure the sealing between the sealing magnetic strips 18 and the ice maker box 1. When it is necessary to clean the inside of the ice maker box 1, the inside of the ice maker box 1 can be cleaned by releasing the fastening of the connecting buckle 6. The external fan 7 is used to increase the air flow rate at the vertical grille 8, thereby accelerating the temperature and pressure of the air behind the ice maker box 1. The rotation of the vertical grille 8 can guide the exhausted hot air to the two sides of the ice maker. In combination with the external fan 7, the heat accumulation caused by the wall obstruction can be effectively reduced, thereby accelerating the heat dissipation inside the ice maker box 1.

[0029] Refer to the attached Figure 3 A cooling fan 12 and a cooling pipe 13 are provided inside the ice-making box 1 . The cooling fan 12 and the cooling pipe 13 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the ice-making box 1 . The positions of the cooling fan 12 and the cooling pipe 13 correspond to the vertical grille 8 .

[0030] According to the above structure, the heat dissipation fan 12 discharges the heat inside the ice maker cabinet 1 into the air through the vertical grille 8 .

[0031] Refer to the attached Figure 5 There are multiple sealing magnetic strips 18 , and the sealing magnetic strips 18 are fixedly connected to the removable rear cover 9 . The sealing magnetic strips 18 are located at the four sides of the removable rear cover 9 .

[0032] According to the above structure, when the ice maker box 1 and the ice maker rear cover 5 are buckled together, the sealing magnetic strip 18 can seal the contact surface between the ice maker box 1 and the ice maker rear cover 5, and at the same time increase the firmness of the ice maker rear cover 5 and prevent it from falling off easily.

[0033] Refer to the attached Figure 3 - Figure 5 A plug-in cylinder 17 is fixedly connected to one side of the removable rear cover 9 close to the ice-making box 1. An electrical component is also arranged inside the ice-making box 1. The electrical component is located below the control board 4. An electrical plug-in hole 11 is provided on the electrical component. The plug-in cylinder 17 is plug-connected to the electrical plug-in hole 11.

[0034] According to the above structure, power is transmitted to the external fan 7 through the electrical components, and the plug-in cylinder 17 can also play a role of guiding the buckling and positioning when installing the rear cover 5 of the ice maker.

[0035] Refer to the attached Figure 4A plurality of conical ventilation ducts 15 are provided inside the fan connection block 10 , and the external fan 7 is located at the upper end of the ventilation duct. The external fan 7 is fixedly connected to the fan connection block 10 , and the external fan 7 is electrically connected to the electrical component via a plug-in cylinder 17 .

[0036] According to the above structure, the conical ventilation duct 15 is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. The air enters the conical ventilation duct 15 through the external fan 7 and is squeezed. The gas temperature rises and the internal pressure increases. The gas after the temperature rises will release part of the heat and be discharged into the air through the fan connecting block 10. When the squeezed gas flows out of the conical channel, the compressed air will lose pressure and the temperature will drop to below the air temperature. Then it will flow to the vertical grille 8 to reduce the temperature near the vertical grille 8, thereby increasing the heat exchange efficiency near the vertical grille 8 and increasing the heat dissipation effect.

[0037] See attached Figure 3 - Figure 5 The end of the connecting buckle 6 close to the ice-making box 1 is fixedly connected with the back cover buckle 16, and the position of the ice-making box 1 corresponding to the back cover buckle 16 is fixedly connected with the box buckle 14, and the back cover buckle 16 is buckled and connected with the box buckle 14.

[0038] According to the above structure, the rear cover buckle 16 connects the ice-making machine case 1 with the ice-making machine rear cover plate 5 by buckling with the case buckle 14 .

[0039] See attached Figure 2 - Figure 5 The number of connecting buckles 6 is multiple, and the connecting buckles 6 are symmetrically arranged.

[0040] According to the above structure, the plurality of connecting buckles 6 increase the connection strength between the ice maker box 1 and the ice maker rear cover 5 .

[0041] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: the ice maker rear cover plate 5 is connected to the ice maker box 1 through a connecting buckle 6, and a circle of sealing magnetic strips 18 are fixedly connected to the detachable rear cover 9, wherein the sealing magnetic strips 18 and the ice maker box 1 are magnetically adsorbed to ensure the sealing between the sealing magnetic strips 18 and the ice maker box 1, and when it is necessary to clean the inside of the ice maker box 1, the inside of the ice maker box 1 can be cleaned by releasing the buckle of the connecting buckle 6;

[0042] The conical ventilation duct 15 is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. The air enters the conical ventilation duct 15 through the external fan 7 and is squeezed. The gas temperature rises and the internal pressure increases. The gas with increased temperature will release part of the heat and be discharged into the air through the fan connecting block 10. When the squeezed gas flows out of the conical channel, the compressed air will lose pressure and the temperature will drop to below the air temperature. Then it will flow to the vertical grille 8 to reduce the temperature near the vertical grille 8, thereby increasing the heat exchange efficiency near the vertical grille 8 and increasing the heat dissipation effect.

[0043] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that, for ordinary technicians in the technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention. The structures, devices and operating methods not specifically described and explained in the present invention shall be implemented according to the conventional means in the field unless otherwise specified and limited.
