[origin: WO2009049982A2] The invention relates to an ice dispenser for dispensing ice cubes or comminuted ice flakes, comprising a housing (36), an inlet opening of the introduction of the uncomminuted ice cubes into the housing (36), an outlet opening for the dispensing of the optionally uncomminuted ice cubes or the comminuted ice flakes from the housing (36), an ice comminuting device (30), comprising a driven shaft (28), mounted on which are a blade arrangement (31, 32) rotating with the shaft (28) and a counter blade arrangement (33) which optionally either rotates with the shaft (28) or is fixed with relation to the housing (36) depending ion the position of a locking means (35). According to the invention, the risk of output of an inadequately comminuted ice cubes during a comminuting operation of the ice dispenser can be reduced, wherein at least one counter blade (34a, 34b) of the counter blade arrangement (33) has a catch (42) for engaging with a counter catch (40) of the locking device (35). An undesired release of the counter blade (34a, 34b) for the locking means (35) is thus prevented.
