PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sprinkler for a flow-down type ice machine for uniformly sprinkling ice making water on ice making plates by devising a sprinkling structure. SOLUTION: In the sprinkler B, a body member 20a of a sprinkling body 20 is integrally provided with an ice making water sprinkling passage 21, a deicing water sprinkling passage 22 and both right and left diffusion walls 23. Both sprinkling passages 21, 22 are formed to be vertically integral and parallel with each other in the same rectangular cross section. Both sprinkling passages 21, 22 have a plurality of pairs of sprinkling holes 21a in both right and left sidewalls 21b, 22b. Both right and left diffusion walls 23 horizontally extend outward from the boundary between the left sidewalls 21b, 22b of both sprinkling passages 21, 22, and an upper face 23a of each diffusion wall 23 is formed as a horizontal plane. A sprinkling guide member 30 is mounted on the sprinkling passage 21, and both right and left guide plate parts 32 of the sprinkling guide member 30 are inclined toward the tops of the right and left diffusion walls 23.
