Abstract: The present invention is related to a method for the production of a throttle valve connection piece housing and a throttle valve as molded injection parts. The throttle valve connection piece housing is provided with a throughflow opening which can be sealed by the throttle valve. Along a pivoting axis extending perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the throughflow opening, the throttle valve is provided with a continuous shaft hole into which a throttle valve shaft can be inserted in a rotationally fixed manner, the two ends of the shaft protruding from the shaft hole in such a way that they protrude into coaxial bearing holes in the throttle valve connector piece housing which are coaxial to the shaft hole. When the throttle valve is in a closed position, the radial peripheral edge thereof rests on the inner wall of the throughflow opening. The throttle valve connector piece housing is produced together with the closed-position throttle valve as a single injection molded piece in an injection mold.
