Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ice makers, and particularly relates to a water temperature control device for an ice maker. Background Art

[0002] An ice maker mainly consists of a box body assembly, an ice making unit system, a water supply system, a microcomputer control system, an ice storage chamber, etc. Its working process is as follows: Plug in the power plug and turn on the switch. Under the control of the microcomputer control system, the water inlet valve intakes water. After a certain period of time, the water inlet valve stops intaking water. At the same time, the microcomputer control system controls the unit to refrigerate to cool the ice mold, and controls the water supply system to continuously inject water into the ice mold, so as to form ice cubes in the ice mold. When the ice cubes reach a certain thickness, the microcomputer control system controls the unit to reverse and convert into a heat pump to promote the ice mold to heat and deice. The water temperature of the water supply system has a direct impact on the ice making speed and ice making quality of the ice maker. Therefore, it is particularly important to control the temperature of the water inside the water supply system. Most of the existing ice makers directly supply the water of the water supply system to the ice making unit system, lacking a water temperature control device, and the ice making efficiency and ice making quality of the ice maker are seriously affected. For this reason, we propose a water temperature control device for an ice maker. Content of the Utility Model
