ABSTRACT:
An ice making apparatus uses a pair of heat transfer plates welded together. Passages are formed between the plates for the passage of a refrigerant fluid. A stream of water passes down over the refrigerant portion of the plates, which are oriented vertically. A deflecting area is located below the refrigerant portion on the plates. The deflecting area has an outward inclined section, a curved section joining the outward inclined section and an inward inclined section that leads into a water trough. Water flows around the deflecting area and into the trough during the ice forming cycle. During the harvest cycle, hot refrigerant causes the ice sheet to release, contact the deflecting area and fall past the trough into a collection bin.
