water and containing a water seal and auger.
Auger: A solid stainless steel double spiral
auger, it pushes the ice crystals up to the top
of the evaporator.
Water Seal: A two part "face" seal, the top
half rotating with the auger, the bottom half
stationary, the sealing action being where the
two seal "faces" meet.
Ice Sweep: A plastic cap with "fingers". It
revolves with the auger to "sweep" the ice into
the ice chute.

SEAL
Divider: Where the ice is compressed and
much of the extra water is squeezed out of it
before it is discharged into the bin.

drives the gear reducer.
Bearing: As the ice is pushed up the
evaporator, the auger is thrust down, and
pressure from the auger thrust is taken up by
this bearing.
