The present disclosure provides an ice machine including: a cabinet; a tray disposed inside the cabinet and having a plurality of cells for respectively forming ice cubes; and a nozzle disposed below the tray and spraying water toward the tray, wherein the plurality of cells includes a first cell having a smaller size and a second cell having a larger size than the first cell, and wherein the nozzle includes a first nozzle for spraying the water into the first cell and a second nozzle for spraying the water into the second cell.

An ice maker control system includes a low side pressure transducer on a suction line and a high side pressure transducer on a discharge line. The ice maker's refrigeration system is hermetically sealed and devoid of pressure taps for servicing gauges. The ice maker can display an indication of real-time suction or discharge pressure. The ice maker can store records of suction and discharge pressure over time and display time series data for suction and discharge pressure on the display. The ice maker can cycle the condenser fan based on the discharge pressure. An additional high pressure switch can shut off the compressor independently of the controller or transducers. During a pulldown routine, the ice maker refrains from delivering water to the ice formation device until the suction pressure is below a threshold.

All integrated apparatus for brewing and cooling a beverage and a method for brewing and cooling a beverage. The integrated apparatus includes a hot water supply subsystem that heats water to form hot water, a brewing subsystem that mixes the hot water with a beverage additive to form a hot beverage, and a cooling subsystem that receives and cools the hot beverage to form a cooled beverage. The cooling subsystem discharges the cooled beverage to a freezing subsystem where it can be frozen into ice.

The present invention relates to a refrigerator. A refrigerator of the present invention may comprise: a first tray assembly forming a part of an ice making cell; and a second tray assembly forming another part of the ice making cell. The first tray assembly includes a first tray defining a part of the ice making cell and a first tray case supporting the first tray, and the second tray assembly includes a second tray defining another part of the ice making cell and a second tray case supporting the second tray. One of the first and second tray cases includes a first par having a shape corresponding to the ice making cell and a second part extending from a certain point of the first part so as to support one of the first tray and the second tray.

A cooling device including a liner defining a freezer compartment, a shelf positioned within the freezer compartment, and an ice maker assembly secured to the shelf. The ice maker assembly including an ice maker configured to produce ice pieces, and an ice maker support frame that supports the ice maker. The ice maker support frame includes a fill cup and an air plenum, the air plenum defining a channel therein and extends between first and second walls of the ice maker support frame. A fan is disposed adjacent the ice maker frame at a location corresponding to the air plenum. The fill cup is configured to receive water from a water fill tube and direct the water to an ice tray of the ice maker.

The refrigerator of the present invention comprises: a storage chamber for storing food; a first ice-maker comprising a tray assembly which forms an ice-making cell in which space water undergoes a phase change into ice due to the cold; a second ice-maker arranged in an ice-making chamber which is partitioned from the storage chamber; a cooler for supplying the cold to the storage chamber and the ice-making chamber; an ice bin for storing ice generated by the second ice-maker; a water supply unit for supplying water to the ice-making cell; a heater for supplying heat to the ice-making cell; and a controller for controlling the heater. The controller turns on the heater in at least some period while the cooler is supplying the cold, so that bubbles dissolved in the water in the ice-making cell move toward the water in a liquid state from a portion where the ice is generated and transparent ice can be generated. In addition, in order for the speed of the ice-making using the water in the ice-making cell to be maintained within a predetermined range less than the speed of the ice-making when the ice-making is performed as the heater is turned off, the controller increases the heating amount of the heater when the heat transfer amount between the cold in the storage chamber and the water in the ice-making cell is increased, and decreases the heating amount of the heater when the heat transfer amount between the cold in the storage chamber and the water in the ice-making cell is reduced.
