摘要： An ice lift apparatus for lifting ice cubes manufactured by an ice maker comprising a horizontal transporting section, a vertical transporting section and an ice discharge section is provided. The apparatus comprises two endless conveyor members driven by a driving unit, a multiplicity of transverse bars mounted between the conveyor members at an interval slightly greater than the longest side of the ice cube, and a stationary guide member disposed within a region defined by the running path of the endless conveyor members with a distance from the transverse bars located at the side of the forward running path of the conveyor members, which distance lies in a range of about 1/2 to 2/3 of the bar interval. Also, the guide member is so disposed as to cause the distance to decrease progressively toward the ice discharge section. When the apparatus is installed within an ice storage chamber having a front door, the driving unit can be controlled by a control means so as to prevent actuation thereof in the open state of the front door.
