    摘要: A heating control method, a heating control device, and an ice maker are provided. The heating control method is: determining that an ice maker is in the ice-making operation state, and the current water feeding is the first water feeding after a target ice maker is turned on; continuously heating a water inlet pipe for a first preset duration; controlling the water inlet valve to remain closed until the heating for the water inlet pipe ends, ensuring that no ice is present in the water inlet pipe or even if the ice is present, water can be smoothly fed into a water storage tank of the ice maker after the water inlet pipe is heated continuously for the first preset duration.

    摘要: Disclosed are a refrigerator and a method and device for controlling refrigeration of the refrigerator. A refrigeration system of the refrigerator includes an evaporator configured to refrigerate a refrigerating compartment and make ice in an ice machine, an ice-making damper and a refrigerating damper. The method includes recognizing a current ice-making stage of the ice machine, acquiring a current temperature of an ice-making compartment in the refrigerator, and controlling opening and closing of the ice-making damper and the refrigerating damper according to the current ice-making stage and the current temperature. Through controlling the refrigeration period of the refrigerating compartment and delaying the refrigeration starting time of the refrigerating compartment, the refrigeration cycle of the refrigerating compartment matches the ice-making cycle of the ice-making compartment, thus improving the ice-making efficiency of the ice machine and the ice-making amount, shortening the ice-making cycle, and reducing the energy consumption of the refrigerator.

    摘要: Disclosed by the present application are a refrigerator, and a method and a device for controlling the refrigerator. The method includes detecting and confirming that a refrigerator is in a first control cycle after defrosting; detecting and confirming that an ice making evaporator requests cooling, and controlling a control valve to be in communication with an ice making circuit. The method controls the refrigerant to preferentially enter the ice making circuit after the refrigerator defrosts, thereby effectively reducing the time that an ice making compartment is in a high-temperature state due to defrosting, and decreasing the risk that ice cubes might be adhered to each other due to ice cubes melting and then re-freezing. As a result, the long-term high-quality storage of ice cubes is achieved.
