ABSTRACT:
An actuator for the throttle of an internal combustion engine comprises a torque motor and a return spring. The spring provides a monotonically increasing return force for increasing throttle opening. The motor has a torque characteristic such that, for constant motor current, the torque decreases monotonically for increasing throttle opening. The actuator thus has a single-valued function of throttle position versus motor current and allows open loop control as well as stable closed loop control.
