Abstract
The present invention relates to an apparatus for automatically and continuously producing ice cubes, comprising a thermally insulated supporting frame (1) comprising, in its inside, an ice collecting vessel (2), accessible from the outside, and overlaying a water collecting and re-using tank (5). Depending on the refrigerating circuit type, i.e. either of the water or air condensing type, that tank (5) may be either independent or not from the outer water supply system coupling, depending on user choice. A pump (11) for supplying water to an ice making assembly (4) communicates with the mentioned water collecting tank, which ice making assembly comprises an evaporator (16) which may be immersed from a small tank (21) holding water for making ice, said small tank being supported at one end of a counterweighted lever mechanism (22), which is counterweighted, at the other end thereof, by a further variable weight small tank (23) provided with a siphon member (25) for discharging water, which siphon member may be actuated by said pump, through preset operating cycles of the lever mechanism.
