ICE MAKER AND A REFRIGERATOR INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18244668 titled 'ICE MAKER AND A REFRIGERATOR INCLUDING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for a refrigerator design that includes a cam gear with a protruding structure, which increases the thickness of the cam surface. This design aims to reduce the force transferred from the cam gear to a magnet lever.

  • The patent application is for a refrigerator design.
  • The design includes a cam gear that is rotated by a driving motor.
  • The cam gear has a structure protruding from an edge to the center.
  • This protruding structure increases the thickness of the cam surface.
  • The purpose of this design is to reduce the force transferred from the cam gear to a magnet lever.

Potential Applications

  • Refrigerators and other cooling appliances that use cam gears.
  • Any application where reducing force transfer from a cam gear to a lever is desired.

Problems Solved

  • Reduces the magnitude of force directly transferred from the cam gear to a magnet lever.
  • Helps to prevent excessive force on the magnet lever, potentially improving the durability and lifespan of the refrigerator.

Benefits

  • Improved efficiency and performance of the refrigerator.
  • Potential for increased durability and lifespan of the refrigerator.
  • Reduced risk of damage to the magnet lever.


Original Abstract Submitted

In a refrigerator, a cam of a cam gear rotating by a driving motor is provided with a structure protruding from an edge portion of a cam gear to a center, thereby increasing the thickness of a cam surface. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the magnitude of force directly transferred from the cam gear to a magnet lever.
