ABSTRACT:
A visual device for use in a freezer compartment of a refrigerator to indicate when water in an ice cube tray is frozen. The device includes a stationary thermal insulated base in close proximity to a portion of the ice cube tray. There is a thermometer embedded in the insulated base and having a bulb with liquid and a connecting capillary tube for a liquid column. A thermal conductive member is in thermal transfer relationship between a portion of the ice cube tray and the thermometer bulb. Visual means relative to the liquid column in the capillary tube are provided to indicate when water in the tray is frozen.
