Figure 16 is the longitudinal section of the refrigerating-chamber door of first embodiment, and Figure 17 is that the ice machine rotation among Figure 16 is so that ice from the view of the state of ice machine separation.
With reference to Figure 16 and Figure 17, under the state in Icemaker assembly 200 is arranged on icehouse 120, ice storage case 300 roughly is arranged on the below of ice machine 210 vertically.
Particularly, the inlet 301a of the opening 310 of ice storage case 300 is arranged on the low position of comparing with the position of ice machine 210.Thus, when icehouse door 130 was closed icehouse 120, ice storage case 300 was not arranged in the first area A between icehouse door 130 and the ice machine 210.That is, ice storage case 300 can be arranged in the second area except the first area between icehouse door 130 and ice machine 210 in the whole zone of icehouse 120.
This is because ice cube I separates from ice machine 210 because of its deadweight because ice machine 210 overturns by its rotary manipulation, thereby falls in the ice storage case 300, so ice storage case 300 need not to be arranged among the A of first area.That is, because from the ice cube I of ice machine 210 separation and without first area A, so the ice storage case need not to be arranged among the A of this first area.
Therefore, owing to ice storage case 300 is not arranged among the A of first area, so icehouse door 130 can be arranged to more contiguous ice machine 210.Can reduce the gross thickness of refrigerating-chamber door 11 thus.That is, refrigerating-chamber door 11 can be very slim.
The swingle 212 of ice machine 210 intersects with the rotating shaft 420 that is positioned at ice storage case 300 inside.This is because when the swingle 212 of ice machine 210 is parallel to the rotating shaft 420 that is positioned at ice storage case 300 inside and is provided with, the volume increase of icehouse 120.
