The lower end of the hose c, which is inserted into the water collection hole b on the bottom of the ice storage box a, is pressed against the inner circumferential surface of the water collection hole b by the slit c1 in order to drain the overflow water from the ice storage to the drain port. Because the hose c is weakened, for example, when a removal scoop comes into contact with it when taking out ice from the ice storage box a, the hose c will fall into the water collection hole b as shown in Fig. 6.
There was a problem in that the overflow water flowed into the ice storage a from the hose c and melted the ice in the ice storage a.

The lower end of the drainage hose 12 is connected to the drain port 11a.
The water collection hole 10 is press-fitted into the water collection hole 10 communicating with the water collection hole 10.
It is held in pressure contact with the inner peripheral surface. A pair of elongated guide holes 13, 13 extending in the vertical direction for guiding drain water to the drain port 11a are formed on the circumferential surface near the lower end of the drain hose 12 so as to face each other. The guide holes 13, 13 have substantially upper halves exposed in the ice storage 7 with the lower end of the drainage hose 12 held in pressure contact with the inner circumferential surface of the water collection hole 10, and are designed to prevent overflow from the water tank 8. Water (the flow of which is indicated by solid arrows) is drained from the drain port 11a together with the drain water accumulated on the bottom surface of the ice storage 7. Note that 15 is an opening/closing door provided on the front wall of the ice maker body 1 so as to be openable and closable.

を損うことがない。 Therefore, in the above embodiment, the drainage hose 1
Since the lower end of 2 is crimped to the inner peripheral surface of the water collection hole 10 on the bottom of the ice storage 7, the scoop for taking out the ice does not come into contact with the discharge hose 12 or pull it when taking out the ice, as shown in Fig. 4. Even if an external force in the tension direction is applied to the drainage hose 12, there is no fear that the drainage hose 12 will easily separate from the water collection hole 10. From this, it is possible to ensure that overflow water is removed from the drain port 11a.
It is possible to prevent the ice A from melting due to overflow water flowing into the ice storage 7.
Moreover, each guide hole 13 exposed in the ice storage 7 allows the drain water to be guided to the drain port 11a and drained, so that the drainage function of the drain water in the ice storage 7 is not impaired.

きる。(Effect of the invention) As explained above, according to the wastewater treatment structure of the ice maker of the invention, the lower end of the drainage hose whose upper end is connected to the drain port of the overflow pipe of the water tank,
It is press-fitted into a water collection hole provided on the bottom of the ice storage compartment so as to communicate with the drain port, and is held in pressure contact with the inner circumferential surface of the water collection hole, and the drain water accumulated on the bottom of the ice storage box is guided to the drain port. A guide hole was formed in the circumferential surface near the lower end of the drainage hose, and the guide hole was exposed inside the ice storage. Therefore, even if the extraction scoop comes into contact with the drainage hose when taking out ice as in the conventional case, or even if an external force in the pulling direction is applied to the drainage hose, the drainage hose can be easily removed from the water collection hole. Therefore, the overflow water can be reliably drained together with the drain water to the drain port, and the ice in the ice storage box can be prevented from melting by the drain water.
