Abstract (en)

This specification relates to an ice bucket having a function of unlaying ice curdling, capable of facilitating ice cubes to be drawn out by unlaying ice cubes, which are frozen in a curdled state due to being left for a long time at an upper portion within the ice bucket of an ice dispensing apparatus, which is disposed in a refrigerator or a water purifier having an ice maker to allow ice cubes to be ejected piece by piece. The ice bucket includes a case main body forming an ice storage space therein and having an ice discharge port formed at a lower portion thereof, an ice ejecting member rotatably disposed at one side of the main body and having a motor rotation shaft, a blade mounting shaft, and a plurality of blades protruding from the blade mounting shaft in a radial direction and disposed in a circumferential direction with spaced distances, and an ice curdling unlaying member configured to prevent ice cubes located above the ice ejecting member from being frozen in a curdled state.
