Refrigerator with icemaker, and water injection control method

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a refrigerator with an ice maker, an ice maker ice-overturning control method, and an ice maker water injection control method. The refrigerator in the present disclosure can: perceive whether the ice cube tray is already taken out to avoid continued water injection after the ice cube tray is taken out; and perceive a temperature of ice in the ice cube tray to accurately determine a current situation of ice making so as to perform accurate control for the ice maker, thereby avoiding ice cube lumping due to unsuccessful overturning in the refrigerator, and greatly improving the ice making efficiency. Further, the refrigerator can accurately determine whether the ice tray is mounted to be in place, so as to complete a series of water injection and ice making operation accurately.
