Abstract: A refrigerator of the present disclosure turns on a heater, which supplies heat to an ice making cell, in at least partial section while a cooler supplies cold to the ice making cell so that bubbles dissolved in the water within the ice making cell moves from a portion, at which the ice is made, toward the water that is in a liquid state to make transparent ice. A defrosting process may be performed when a defrosting start condition is satisfied in a state in which the heater is turned on. In this case, the amount of cold supply of the cooler in the defrosting process can be reduced more than the amount of cold supply of the cooler before the defrosting start condition is satisfied.

Abstract: A refrigerator includes: a storage chamber configured to store food; a cooler configured to supply cold into the storage chamber; a first tray assembly configured to define a portion of an ice making cell that is a space in which water is phase-changed into ice by the cold; a second tray assembly configured to define another portion of the ice making cell; a heater disposed adjacent to at least one of the first tray assembly or the second tray assembly; and a controller configured to control the heater, wherein the controller controls the heater to be turned on in at least partial section while the cooler supplies the cold so that bubbles dissolved in the water within the ice making cell moves from a portion, at which the ice is made, toward the water that is in a liquid state to make transparent ice, and the controller controls the heater so that when a heat transfer amount between the cold within the storage chamber and the water of the ice making cell increases, the heating amount of the heater increases, and when the heat transfer amount between the cold within the storage chamber and the water of the ice making cell decreases, the heating amount of the heater decreases so as to maintain an ice making rate of the water within the ice making cell within a predetermined range that is less than an ice making rate when the ice making is performed in a state in which the heater is turned off.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a refrigerator.
The refrigerator of the present invention may include a first tray assembly configured to define one portion of an ice making cell, a second tray assembly configured to define the other portion of the ice making cell, a heater disposed adjacent to at least one of the first and second tray assemblies, and a controller configured to control the heater.
The refrigerator further include a pusher including a first edge having a surface pressing the ice or at least one of the first and second tray assemblies to easily separate the ice from the tray assemblies, a bar extending from the first edge, and a second edge disposed at the end of the bar. The second tray assembly includes a first coupling part connected to the pusher and a second coupling part connected to the driver.
The controller control to move at least one of the pusher and the second tray assembly to change a relative position between the pusher and the second tray assembly.-

Abstract: An ice maker includes an ice tray, a motor configured to rotate with respect to the ice tray, an ejector configured to cause rotation of an ice piece, the ejector including a rotary shaft and a protrusion pin, a heater configured to selectively supply heat to the ice tray, and a first sensor unit configured to detect a rotation angle of the protrusion pin about an axis of the rotary shaft. The first sensor unit is further configured to, before discharge of the ice piece from the ice tray, detect whether the protrusion pin has rotated by a predetermined angle about the axis of the rotary shaft, and the heater is further configured to be turned off based on the first sensor unit detecting that the protrusion pin has rotated by the predetermined angle.
