Abstract

See full text

A measured amount of water is frozen in a tray and cubed. The cubes are dropped directly into a bag placed under a chute. The ice drops responsive to the defrosting of the tray which releases the cubes. When the defrosting cycle of the ice maker is complete the tray moves up which moves an attached chain up to unclog any ice jam in the chute. Then the freezing of the ice begins again, a bag-carrying platen moves away from the chute and the bag is heat sealed. The bag, full of ice, is then released and dropped into a cold storage bin below the bagging mechanism.
