Ice Maker
Abstract
An ice maker comprising a casing ( 1 ), a water storage box ( 2 ), and an ice-making mold ( 3 ). The water storage box ( 2 ) is placed inside the casing ( 1 ) and forms a water storage cavity ( 21 ). The ice-making mold ( 3 ) is provided with an upper through hole ( 31 ) and a lower through hole ( 32 ). The ice-making mold ( 3 ) includes a first pairing part ( 33 ) and a second pairing part ( 34 ) that pairs with the first pairing part ( 33 ). The first pairing part ( 33 ) is equipped with a first opening cavity ( 331 ), and the second pairing part ( 34 ) is equipped with a second opening cavity ( 341 ). When the first pairing part ( 33 ) and the second pairing part ( 34 ) are combined, the first opening cavity ( 331 ) and the second opening cavity ( 341 ) come together to form an ice-making cavity ( 35 ).
