ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is described for forming cracked ice by producing a layer of ice on the inner wall of a cylindrical chamber, heating the chamber to loosen the ice, forcing the ice cylinder upwardly past a breaker which is stationary and allowing the ice to accummulate in a hopper. A ring-shaped conveyor provided with circumferentially-spaced paddles is driven by means of a motor mounted on one side of the hopper to carry pieces of cracked ice toward an outlet in the hopper.
