"ICE PIECE DISPENSER" ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An ice piece dispenser for automatically dispens- ing pieces of ice from a collecting bin associated with an automatic ice maker. The dispenser includes a delivery member for transferring the ice pieces from the collecting bin to a delivery position. A metering device is provided at the transfer position between the collecting bin and delivery member for providing a metered delivery of the ice pieces to the delivery member which may have a relatively large delivery capacity so as to permit use of the apparatus in dispensing any one of a plurality of different size and shape ice pieces. The metering device may be any one of a plurality of different metering devices correlated with the size and configuration of the ice pieces intended to be dispensed in the apparatus. The device may define an anti- jamming element at the transfer position for reducing the size of aggregated ice pieces and cause a delivery of inde- pendent ice pieces to the delivery member for sequential delivery therethrough to the delivery position. The device may include connecting arms interlocked with the delivery member whereby concurrent rotation of the device and delivery member may be effected. The device may be disposed flush with one end of the delivery member at the transfer position.
