Description of the Related Art As shown schematically in FIGS. 1 and 2, a sliding door type small ice maker has a substantially U-shaped horizontal cross section of an ice maker main body 1, and has a front surface 3 of left and right main body side plates 2. A door unit 4 and a lower cover 5 constituting the front wall are attached, and a top plate 6 is attached to the top, and the interior is connected to an upper ice making mechanism 7, a central ice storage 8 and a lower machine room 9. It is partitioned. The door unit 4 is configured by filling a heat insulating foamed resin 12 between a front panel 10 made of a stainless steel plate and a back panel 11 made of a resin, and a horizontally long rectangular opening 13 is formed substantially in the center thereof. 1

等、諸種の不具合が予想される。In this case, since the horizontal cross section of the main body 1 is substantially U-shaped, the rigidity between the two side plates 2 is not always large. The user's hand may hit the sliding door 14 and strongly push the sliding door unit 4, or an unexpected force may be applied to the sliding door unit 4 due to shaking during transportation of the ice maker, and the sliding of the sliding door unit 14 may cause the sliding of the sliding door unit 14. When assembling the ice machine, a reinforcing jig was required. Therefore, it is conceivable that the front frame made of a stainless steel plate is stretched between the two side plates 2 to increase the rigidity between the two side plates 2. Therefore, not only the structure becomes complicated, but also the workability of mounting to the left and right side plates 2 is deteriorated, and the cost is easily increased. In addition, if the front frame is mounted, the upper portion of the opening 13 is closed by the front frame. Therefore, the opening for taking out the ice pieces from the ice storage 8 has to be lowered, so that it is difficult to take out the ice pieces, or because of the presence of the front frame, replacement of parts of the ice making mechanism 7 or maintenance and inspection. In addition, various inconveniences are expected, such as deterioration of workability, and furthermore, the magnet portion of the packing for the sliding door 14 hits the front frame, and iron powder or the like adheres to the front frame, which easily causes rust.

水皿２１が固定されている。The door unit 4 is formed by filling a heat insulating foamed resin 12 between a front panel 10 made of a stainless steel plate and a back panel 11 made of a resin, and has a horizontally long rectangular opening 13 formed substantially at the center thereof. The sliding doors 14, 14 in the horizontal direction are fitted into the opening 13, while the left and right sides of the rear surface of the door unit 4 are slightly inside the hooks 15 fixed by caulking pins (not shown).
Rib 30 projecting rearward from back panel 11
The hook 15 is hooked on the screw collar 16 on the front surface 3 of the side plate 3 in a state where the outer surfaces 31 of the right and left ribs 30 are in contact with the inner surfaces 32 of the front portions of the side plates 2 respectively. The lower end is fixed to the front surface of the main body 1 by a screw 17, and the door unit 4 is attached so as to cover the front of the ice making mechanism unit 7 and the ice storage 8, and the bracket attached to the back side of the door unit 4 by screws 18. A drain 20 of the ice making mechanism 7 is fixed to 19 by screws 20.

の保持機構をとくに強固なものとする必要がなくなる。In the above ice making machine, the door unit 4 is attached to the left and right side plate front surfaces 3 such that the ribs 30 formed on the right and left back surfaces of the door unit 4 are sandwiched between the front inner surfaces 32 of the side plates 2. As a result, the door unit 4 is surely prevented from laterally displacing with respect to the side plates 2,
Therefore, there is no possibility that the door unit 4 will be displaced sideways even if the user's hand hits the slide door 14 when taking out the ice pieces from the ice storage 8, or even if the user shakes during transportation of the ice maker. Door unit 4 to front side plate 3
It is not necessary to make the holding mechanism particularly strong.

不具合も発生しなくなる。The heat insulating material injected into the side plates 2 is solidified and contracted, so that the distance between the front surfaces 3 of the side plates tends to be reduced. However, the door unit is provided between the left and right side plates 2 via the ribs 30. Since the size between the both side plates 2 is easily maintained constant by sandwiching the 4, there is no need for a reinforcing jig for securing a predetermined size between the left and right side plates 2 when assembling the ice making machine. In addition, since the work of attaching the ice making mechanism 7 becomes much easier than before, and the rigidity between the both side plates 2 can be easily increased, it is necessary to extend the front frame between the both side plates 2 as described above. For this reason, problems such as complication of the structure due to the installation of the front frame, deterioration of the assembling workability and maintenance workability, and difficulty in taking out ice pieces from the ice storage 8 do not occur.

ことも可能である。The ribs in the above embodiment have the following shapes:
Needless to say, it may be appropriately changed according to the shape of the inner surface of the front part of the main body side plate with which it is engaged, and the rear wall has projections on the left and right back surfaces of the front wall part with the opening / closing door. By attaching a reinforcing plate to each of the projections and abutting the projections against the inner surface of the front portion of the main body side plate, the front wall portion is sandwiched between the two main body side plates, or the front wall portion is hooked on a screw collar on the front surface of the main body side plate. A protrusion similar to the above is formed on a hook or the like fixed to the left and right back surfaces of the main body side plate so as to abut the front inner surface, or, in each of the above embodiments, a protrusion including a rib, By engaging a recess formed on the front surface of the main body side plate or a flange on the periphery of the hole, etc., the front wall portion is fixed between both main body side plates,
It is also possible to configure so as to achieve the same operation and effect as the above embodiments.

実用上の効果が非常に大きい。In the front structure of the ice-making machine or the like according to the present invention, according to the invention], by the outer surface of the protrusion formed on the left and right sides of the front wall back side is engaged with the front portion of the main body side plates, open
When opening the door and removing ice pieces from inside the main unit, the front wall is left
Even if it is pushed to the right, or if it is shaken during transportation of an ice machine, etc., it is surely prevented that the front wall portion will be shifted laterally with respect to the front portion of the main body side plate. It is not necessary to make the mounting structure of the front wall portion to the front surface of the main body side plate particularly strong, and the structure can be simplified and the number of parts can be easily reduced.
The rigidity between the left and right plates is increased, and when the heat insulating material injected into the main body is solidified or contracted, the dimension between the left and right plates can be easily maintained constant, eliminating the need for a reinforcing jig.
There is no need to extend the front frame between the left and right plates, simplifying the main body structure, improving assembly workability and maintenance workability, etc.
The practical effect is very large.
