[0028] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above scheme are as follows:

[0029] The water in ice box 4 is condensed into ice blocks by semiconductor refrigerating sheet, and the ice blocks are separated by turning over ice box 4 driven by motor 1, compared with the ice output mode of rotating and extruding, the shape and size of the ice blocks produced by the scheme are easy to unify, and broken ice is not easy to produce.

[0033] The number of teeth of primary gear 2 is less than the number of teeth of secondary gear 3.

[0034] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above scheme are as follows:

[0035] The motor 1 drives the first gear 2 to rotate, and the first gear 2 drives the second gear 3. Since the number of teeth of the first gear 2 is less than the number of teeth of the second gear 3, the rotating speed of the second gear 3 is less than the rotating speed of the first gear 2, that is, the fast rotating speed of the motor 1 is changed into the slow rotating speed of the ice box 4, and the load and power of the motor 1 are reduced.
