Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An apparatus for storing ice that includes a housing with heat insulation characteristics and a storage space; an ice maker in the housing, which includes an ice tray; an ice bin arranged below the ice maker; a transfer member arranged within the ice bin to discharge ice to the outside of the ice bin; a refrigerating cycle that extends into the housing, and which includes an evaporation unit attached to the outer surface of the ice tray; and a control unit which controls the operation of the refrigerating cycle and of the transfer member. Air in the storage space is cooled by being in contact with the evaporation unit and/or the ice tray, and the control unit operates the refrigerating cycle to cool the storage space when the temperature of the ice tray and/or of the evaporation unit is higher than a preset temperature.
