The water supply apparatus (1) for use in the automatic ice maker comprises: a water supply tank (10); an air pump (70); an air supply pipe (60); and a water supply channel, disposed between the water supply tank (10) and an ice tray (80), for supplying water to the ice tray (80) by using the air pump (70) which feeds air into the water supply tank (10) and through a pressure of the air sending the water outside of the water supply tank (10), and the water supply channel includes a pressure adjusting chamber (40) for adjusting a pressure in the water supply channel and a water supply pipe (50) for causing the water to flow into the ice tray (80). The water supply pipe (50) includes a first water supply pipe part (51) and a second water supply pipe part (52) which are attachable and detachable. The air supply pipe (60) includes a first air supply pipe part (61) and a second air supply pipe part (62) which are attachable and detachable.
