ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for automatically producing ice vessels. Ice masses produced by ice making machine 3 is crushed to pieces by ice crusher 1. Then, the ice pieces are fed from an outlet chute 2A of the ice crusher 1 to one of female dies 12, which are provided on an endless conveyor 11. A plurality of male dies 15 are integrally provided around an outer periphery of a rotary plate 31. With the intermittent movement of the conveyor 11 and the rotation of the rotary plate associated therewith, the male dies 15 are sequnetially inserted into the female dies 12 to mold ice vessels A, which are then transported to a terminal side 11A, where they are detached from the female dies 12 by a collecting plate 21 and then transported thereon. According to the invention, there can be provided an apparatus which can make ice in proper quantities and is suited for mass production of ice vessels.
