Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ice making device capable of instantaneously disconnecting a leaf switch even if water supply to an ice tray is controlled by driving the leaf switch by a cam mechanism. SOLUTION: In this ice making device, a water supply switch has the leaf switch comprising a leaf contact piece 731 driven by a rotating cam body 55, and in the leaf switch, a play is secured between a first cam member 55a interlocked with ice removing motion and a second cam member 55 driving the leaf contact piece 731. Thus the cam member 55b is kicked by an energizing force of the leaf contact piece 731, and rotated earlier than a cam driving shaft 552 when a cam contact section 731g rides over a projecting section 556. Thus the leaf contact piece 731 instantaneously recovers its original shape from a state of being pressed and deformed by the projecting section 556. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT
