Abstract
A flow-type ice maker including substrate, an ice-making part configured by a refrigerant pipe connected to a refrigerator and through which a refrigerant circulates in an airtight manner, an ice-making rack supporting the refrigerant pipe and including an ice mold formed along an outer periphery of the refrigerant pipe, an ice-making water flow part joined to an upper part of the ice-making rack and allowing ice-making water to flow into the ice-making rack, and an ice-separating member to rotating around a direction parallel to the axis center of the refrigerant pipe to separate ice formed in the ice mold, and an ice-making water feed pipe feeding ice-making water to the ice-making water flow part. The refrigerant pipe has a curved part; and an outer periphery of a pipe made of any one of copper and aluminum is covered with stainless steel.
