  • Patent number: 6050241
    Abstract: A control device in which if the control device fails the throttle valve reaches an emergency operation position by use of only one spring. If the control device fails, the single spring can move a throttle valve to an emergency operation position, located between two terminal positions. This is achieved by various-sized speed-changing gears between the two spring connections and an intermediate member. No additional spring is needed for this. The control device is suitable particularly for vehicles that have a throttle-type internal combustion engine.
