ABSTRACT:
An auger-type ice maker comprises a generally cylindrical-walled freezing chamber, a rotatable ice auger within the chamber, and a compacting head whereby ice formed in the freezing chamber is transferred by rotation of the auger into the compacting head and discharged therefrom via a nozzle. The nozzle is provided with an annular water-receiving canal for receiving water squeezed from ice as it compressed while passing through a converging nozzle. The configuration of the converging nozzle is arcuate, and is defined by a surface of revolution that is a frustum of a radius-defined convex conical passageway.
