An operator pulls out the ice making tank 1 from the refrigerator freezer compartment and places it on the operating table. A pre-prepared ice taking net bag 2 is taken out from the matched storage bin. The bottom sheet 22 with a length of 25 mm and a width of 16 mm and the connecting block 23 with a thickness of 0.5 mm are used to form a hollow grid. The ice taking net bag 2 is placed into the ice making tank 1. The surface of the ice making tank 1 is uniformly distributed with 12 rectangular sub-tanks 13 with a size of 20 mm x 30 mm x 15 mm.
