Device and a method for making ice cubes and a metering device for ice cubes

A method for making frozen blocks of a frozen liquid column made by freezing a supplied liquid contained in, the method comprising:

• supplying the supplied liquid to an elongated mold comprising a two-piece mold assembly comprising:
• a first mold side, and
• a second mold side,
• wherein a frozen column space is formed, by bringing the first mold side and the second mold side together, that contains the supplied liquid during ice making
• freezing the supplied liquid contained within the elongated mold after the supplying the liquid substance,
• moving, after the freezing, the first mold side relative to the second mold side to enable a releasing of the frozen liquid column from the elongated mold;
• wherein the elongated mold comprises a series of interconnected spaces,
• wherein an elongated element extends longitudinally;
• through the frozen column space formed by bringing the first mold side and the second mold side together,
• wherein the frozen column comprises a linear series of interconnected spaces,
• wherein the frozen liquid column comprises a linear series of interconnected frozen blocks formed around the elongated element,
• wherein each individual one of the linear series of interconnected spaces corresponds to an individual one of the linear series of interconnected frozen blocks, and
• wherein the elongated element forms a cavity in the frozen liquid column;
• freezing the liquid substance in the elongated mold.
