To provide an ice making device that can autonomously execute a series of ice making operations including control of a fan motor without depending on a host device.SOLUTION: An ice making device comprises an ice making tray, a fan motor for sending air to the ice making tray, an ice separation mechanism that is a mechanism for taking out ice from the ice making tray, a control unit, and a frame that is a frame body for holding the ice making tray, the fan motor, the ice separation mechanism, and the control unit. The control unit controls operations of the fan motor, the ice separation mechanism, and a water supply mechanism that is a mechanism for opening/closing a water supply passage for supplying water to the ice making tray.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】ファンモータの制御も含む一連の製氷動作を、上位装置に依存せず自律的に実行可能な製氷装置を提供する。【解決手段】製氷皿と、前記製氷皿に風を送るファンモータと、前記製氷皿から氷を取り出す機構である離氷機構と、制御部と、前記製氷皿、前記ファンモータ、前記離氷機構、および前記制御部を保持する枠体であるフレームと、を備え、前記制御部は、前記ファンモータ、前記離氷機構、および、前記製氷皿に水を供給する給水路を開閉する機構である給水機構の動作を制御することを特徴とする製氷装置により解決する。【選択図】図３
