The embodiments of the present invention and all other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 The present invention provides the following three preferred embodiments:

[0021] Embodiment 1: A discharge structure for an ice maker, comprising an ice maker body 1, a discharge plate 3, a cleaning assembly, and an auxiliary assembly; an outlet cover 2 is installed at the ice outlet of the ice maker body 1, the discharge plate 3 is fixedly arranged at an angle below the ice outlet of the ice maker body 1, and baffles 4 are fixedly arranged symmetrically on both sides of the discharge plate 3; a cleaning assembly and an auxiliary assembly are provided on the discharge plate 3; the cleaning assembly comprises a T-shaped chute 5, a U-shaped frame 6, an ice-removing shovel tooth plate 7, a fixing plate 8, and a T-shaped slider 9; the auxiliary assembly comprises a mounting plate 10, a motor 11, a gear 12, a rack 13, a damping shaft 14, and an ice-discharging inclined plate 15.

[0022] When in use, when the ice maker main body 1 is unloading ice cubes, the outlet cover 2 is opened, and the ice cubes fall onto the unloading plate 3 and are unloaded along the unloading plate 3. After the ice cubes are unloaded, crushed ice will stick to the unloading plate 3. At this time, the motor 11 drives the gear 12 to rotate and engage with the rack 13 to control the reciprocating movement of the U-shaped frame 6. During the movement of the U-shaped frame 6, the de-icing shovel tooth plate 7 is engaged with the unloading plate 3 to shovel and clean the crushed ice stuck on the unloading plate 3. The operation is simple and avoids affecting the unloading of ice cubes from the ice maker main body 1.

[0023] Example 2: On the basis of Example 1, the T-shaped chute 5 in the cleaning assembly is opened on the side wall of the baffle 4, and the side wall at the bottom end of the U-shaped frame 6 is fixedly provided with a de-icing shovel tooth plate 7; the fixed plate 8 is symmetrically fixedly provided at the end of the two side walls of the U-shaped frame 6, and the bottom end of the fixed plate 8 is fixedly provided with a T-shaped slider 9; the T-shaped chute 5 and the T-shaped slider 9 are set in corresponding positions and the same number of groups, and the T-shaped slider 9 is movably clamped in the T-shaped chute 5; the two side walls of the U-shaped frame 6 are clamped with the baffle 4, and the de-icing shovel tooth plate 7 is clamped with the blanking plate 3, and the de-icing shovel tooth plate 7 faces the port of the blanking plate 3.

[0024] During use, after the ice cubes are loaded and unloaded on the blanking plate 3, crushed ice will stick to the blanking plate 3. At this time, the U-shaped frame 6 is driven to move, and the T-shaped slider 9 moves in the T-shaped slide groove 5 to ensure the stability of the U-shaped frame 6. The de-icing shovel tooth plate 7 moves along the blanking plate 3 to shovel out the adhered crushed ice, and at the same time, it can cooperate with the U-shaped frame 6 to push the ice cubes adhered to the blanking plate 3 and the baffle 4 to be discharged.

[0025] Example 3: On the basis of Example 2, the mounting plate 10 in the auxiliary component is fixedly set on the side wall of the fixed plate 8, the motor 11 is fixedly set at the bottom end of the mounting plate 10, and the output end of the motor 11 is fixedly set at the gear 12; the rack 13 is fixedly set on the outer wall of the baffle 4, and the two ends of the ice discharge inclined plate 15 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the baffle 4 through the damping shaft 14; the gear 12 and the rack 13 are set in corresponding positions and the same number of groups, and the gear 12 and the rack 13 are meshed; the ice discharge inclined plate 15 is set below the ice outlet of the ice maker body 1, and the ice discharge inclined plate 15 covers the bottom wall of the U-shaped frame 6 and the de-icing shovel tooth plate 7.

[0026] When in use, after the ice cubes are unloaded, the motor 11 starts to drive the gear 12 to rotate, and the gear 12 and the rack 13 are engaged, so that the U-shaped frame 6 moves along the unloading plate 3 to shovel out the crushed ice; when the ice cubes are unloaded, the U-shaped frame 6 is controlled to move to the end below the ice outlet of the ice maker body 1, and the ice discharge inclined plate 15 is rotated to cover the bottom wall of the U-shaped frame 6 and the ice-shoveling tooth plate 7 to prevent the ice cubes from being stuck on the U-shaped frame 6 and unable to be unloaded.

[0027] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
