An ice maker for a household refrigeration apparatus includes a housing with an opening through which ice is dispensable from an interior of the housing out of the housing. A crushing device for crushing ice is provided at the opening. A flap is movably disposed at the opening and switchable between a closed position for dispensing crushed ice and an opened position for dispensing uncrushed ice through the opening. A drive unit is coupled to the flap by a coupling device for moving the flap. The flap has a pivot axis about which the flap pivots and a first flap arm coupled to the coupling device and a second flap arm movable relative to the opening, extend radially away from the pivot axis. A household refrigeration apparatus includes an apparatus housing having a receiving space for food, and an ice maker.

Ice maker and household refrigeration apparatus

An ice maker for mounting into a household cooling appliance includes a storage container for ice that is formed with an opening which is accessible from the top. A fan generates an air stream in the ice maker. An air guiding duct above the storage container is bounded by a first lateral duct wall, which is oriented in the depth direction of the ice maker and extends in the height direction, and is bounded by a second duct wall, which is a roof wall. The air guiding duct has a first opening towards the bottom so that an air stream escapes towards the bottom. The first opening of the air guiding duct is arranged offset viewed in the width direction of the ice maker so that the air stream exiting from the first opening of the air guiding duct flows along an outer side of the storage container.

Ice maker with specific cooling of a storage container, and household cooling appliance

An ice maker for mounting into a household cooling appliance, the ice maker includes an ice producer for producing ice; a storage container for storing ice; a driving unit for driving the storage container, the driving unit having a drive housing; and an air duct formed in the drive housing. The air duct has an air duct outlet configured in a front wall of the drive housing which faces towards the storage container and an air duct inlet provided in a side wall of the drive housing which faces towards the ice producer. A fan is arranged in the air duct. The fan generates an air stream from the ice producer to the storage container through the air duct.

An ice compartment of a household cooling appliance has a driving unit for driving an ice storage container of an ice maker. The driving unit has a drive housing and at least one drive motor. A first receiving duct accommodates a first fastening part and extends completely through the drive housing. The drive housing can be fastened by the first fastening part to an inner liner wall of the refrigeration compartment. The first receiving duct extends across the entire depth of the drive housing and is open at a front end and a rear end. A second receiving duct extends completely through the drive housing. The drive housing can be fastened by the second fastening part to the same inner liner wall of the refrigeration compartment. The second receiving duct extends across the entire depth of the drive housing and is open at a front end and a rear end.

Ice compartment with driving unit, ice maker and household cooling appliance

An ice maker for a household refrigeration apparatus has a housing with an opening, through which ice is transportable from an interior of the housing out of the housing, a flap, which is movably arranged in the housing and adjustable for closing or opening the opening, and a drive unit, which is coupled to the flap by a coupling device of the ice maker, to move the flap. The drive unit is formed as a separate module and the entire module of the drive unit is arranged adjacent to the opening in the housing.

Ice maker with specifically positioned drive unit, household refrigeration apparatus and method for assembling an ice maker

An ice maker for installation in a household refrigeration apparatus includes a housing with an opening, a storing bowl for ice, wherein the storing bowl is formed with an opening, which is accessible from the top. The storing bowl can be inserted into the housing through the opening of the housing and the storing bowl is arranged in a final position at the housing in the inserted state. A position identifier captures the position of the storing bowl, wherein the position identifier includes a capturing sensor. A control electronic, which is arranged in a front area in depth direction of the ice maker, includes a circuit board. The capturing sensor is arranged on the circuit board.

A household cooling appliance includes an ice maker unit for making ice, wherein the ice maker unit has a container, in which the ice is stored, a weight detection unit for determining the weight of the container, and an evaluation unit, which is configured for determining a filling level of the container with ice depending on the weight.

Household cooling appliance comprising a weight detection unit for determining the weight of a container of an ice maker unit

A household cooling appliance includes an outer housing, a cooling compartment in the outer housing, and an ice maker unit, which is arranged in the cooling compartment. The ice maker unit includes a first sub-unit, which is configured for making crushed ice from ice form elements. The first sub-unit has a housing. A crusher device for crushing the ice form element is arranged in the housing. A cooling device cools the first sub-unit with cold air. The cooling device has an air duct. The air duct ends at the housing of the first sub-unit and at least partly is configured to extend along an outer side of the housing so that the cold air for cooling the housing flows along the outer side of the housing.

A refrigeration device includes a water supply device for supplying water to an ice maker in the interior of the refrigeration device. The refrigeration device has an installation recess in an inner wall of the refrigeration device for inserting the water supply device. The installation recess is closed towards an outer wall of the refrigeration device.

Refrigeration device having an ice maker

A refrigeration device includes an ice or water dispenser having an actuating lever. A light source is spaced apart in a light-emitting direction of the light source by an air gap from a light-coupling surface of the actuating lever.
