Abstract
An ice-making assembly for a refrigerator is provided. The ice-making assembly includes a tray for making ice, a handling member for rotating the tray, a first rotation member rotatable with the handling member, a second rotation member rotating the tray, and a transmission member for transmitting rotation of the first rotation member to the second rotation member. An end of the transmission member is fixed to first rotation member, and the other end of the transmission member is fixed to the second rotation member. A force is transmitted from the handling member (a lever) to the tray through the transmission member, which has a strip shape and is coupled to or wound around the rotation member. Therefore, freezing between the transmission member and the rotation member can be minimized, and the lever can be smoothly handled. Thus, a force applied to the lever can be smoothly transmitted to the tray.
