PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an ice making device of a refrigerator, wherein a quantity of water required for making ice each time reliably reaches an ice making tray, when discharged from a pump. SOLUTION: A partition wall 5 is provided for partitioning a refrigerator 100 into upper and lower parts. A tank 11 for storing ice making water and a pump 14 for discharging water from the tank 11 are arranged above the partition wall 5. An ice making device 7 with the ice making tray 8 for receiving water discharged from the pump 14 is provided under the partition wall 5. A water channel 22 is arranged ranging from the partition wall 5 to the ice making tray 8. In the water channel 22, a duct 21 is arranged for guiding water discharged from the pump 14. A water receiving part 17 is installed on the upper part of the duct 21. The capacity of the water receiving part 17 and/or the flow path cross section area of the duct 21 are set to prevent water supplied from the upper side of the water receiving part 17 from leaking from the water receiving part 17.
