Abstract
A kit which retroactively fits an ice-maker to increase the rate of production of ice. The kit comprises a bracket, a fan and fan motor, and a power source for the fan motor. The fan motor and fan is positioned above the ice maker within the freezer compartment and blows air downward, directly over the ice production tray which contains water. The circulation of a stream of cold air causes the temperature in the vicinity of the water to drop more rapidly than it would without the fan-produced circulation of cold air. Also, cooling is hastened by the induced evaporation of the water by the cold air stream. When the water is frozen, the ice maker ejects the ice into an ice container. The bracket provides support for the fan motor, which is secured to the bracket with four machine screws.
