PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent ice blocks from being caught to smoothly discharge them in an ice block discharging device. SOLUTION: In this ice block discharging device 40, a carrying part has a take-in port 44 for ice blocks C opened in an ice storage chamber 14 at one end part, an ice guide having a discharge port 46 facing the outside of an ice storage 12 at the other end part, and a fin 48 spirally disposed in an inner circumferential surface of the ice guide 42. The ice guide is rotatably disposed in an installation recess part 20 recessed at a bottom part of the ice storage chamber 14. The take-in port 44 has an opening width in a circumferential direction in the ice guide 42, that is set as size of roughly half the circumference of the ice guide 42. As a motor 56 connected to the ice guide 42 is driven, the ice guide 42 and the fin 48 are integrally rotated. The ice blocks C taken from the take-in port 44 is then carried along the inner circumferential surface of the ice guide 42 to be discharged from the discharge port 46. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
