REFRIGERATOR Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC F02D11/00 F25D29/00 F25D25/02 F25C1/18 F25C1/24 F25C5/02 

FIELD: refrigeration equipment.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to refrigeration equipment. The refrigerator contains a storage chamber configured to store products; a cooler configured to supply cold to the storage chamber. The first temperature sensor is configured to detect the temperature in the storage chamber. The first tray assembly is configured to define a portion of the ice making cell. The second tray assembly is configured to define another portion of the ice making cell. The second tray assembly is coupled to the drive to be in contact with the first tray assembly during the ice making process and be spaced apart from the first tray assembly during the ice separation process. The water supply part is configured to supply water to the ice making cell. The second temperature sensor is configured to measure the temperature of the water or ice within the ice making cell. The heater is placed adjacent to one of the first tray assembly or the second tray assembly. The controller is configured to control the heater, cooler, second tray assembly, and drive. The first tray assembly contains the first tray, and the second tray assembly contains the second tray. The second tray includes a first part defining at least a part of the ice making cell and a second part extending from a predetermined point of the first part. The second part contains the first expansion part extending from the first point of the first part and the second expansion part extending from the second point of the first part. The length of the second expansion part in the horizontal direction is greater than the length of the first expansion part.

EFFECT: invention contributes to the achievement of uniform ice transparency, easy separation of ice from the cell with a simultaneous decrease in the rate of ice production.
