Disclosed are an ice maker, which can make ice with high transparency. The ice maker includes an ice making container configured to be filled with ice-making water; a heating ice-separator comprising a heating rod extended from above a water surface of the ice-making water into the ice making container so as to be immersed in the ice-making water and configured to transfer heat to the ice-making water, and a rotary shaft connecting with the heating rod, extended to traverse an upper portion of the ice making container, and configured to rotate the heating rod to be separated from the ice making container; and a heater configured to supply heat to the heating rod. By using the heater, the ice maker can not only make the ice with the high transparency, but also make ice-separation structure be simplified.

Ice maker

Disclosed is an ice making device that is able to selectively make ices having different transparencies from each other. The ice making device includes: an ice making chamber including an ice making container to accommodate ice making water therein; a cooler configured to supply cool air to the ice making chamber to cool the ice making water; an ice making fan configured to circulate the supplied cool air; an ice making heater configured to supply heat to the ice making water when the ice making water is cooled; and a controller configured to control at least one of the cooling unit, the ice making fan and the ice making heater to adjust a rate of change of temperature of the ice making container to generate one of two types of ice having different transparency.

Provided is a clothes care apparatus capable of removing scale generated in a steam device. The clothes care apparatus includes a main body including a clothes care room and a steam generating device provided to supply steam into the clothes care room, wherein the steam generating device includes steam container, a wash liquid injecting part provided to inject a wash liquid for removing scale in the steam container, a heating part provided inside the steam container to heat the wash liquid, and a wash liquid discharging part provided to discharge the wash liquid having cleaned the scale using heat received from the heating part, wherein the wash liquid discharging part includes a second pump provided to discharge the wash liquid having cleaned the scale to an outside of the steam container.
