More Information
Summary:An ice making apparatus, including: a fixed cylinder; a drive shaft mounted to the fixed cylinder and rotated by a drive unit; a lower rotational plate mounted to the drive shaft; an upper rotational plate provided with an ice dropping hole and mounted to the upper end of the drive shaft; a fixed gear mounted to the outer circumference of the fixed cylinder; a rotational gear externally engaged with the fixed gear; a rotational shaft mounted to the rotational gear and extending upward through the lower rotational plate to a position above the ice dropping hole; and a rotational cutter mounted to the upper end of the rotational shaft and rotated to cut dropping ice into pieces, wherein the pieces of ice drop through the ice dropping hole and are distributed to the outside of the ice making apparatus by a centrifugal force of the lower rotational plate.
