The ice making chamber 1 and water tray 8 are supported to a frame 2. A branch pipe 15b branched from the water supply pipe 15 sprinkles water on the back face of the ice making chamber during deicing operation. The side face and back face lower part of the ice making chamber may be heated with hot gas in addition to sprinkling of water by the water supply pipe or instead of sprinkling of water.
