ABSTRACT:
A throttle cam for a throttle valve comprises a throttle cam for a throttle valve with the throttle cam comprising a cam body having a shaft opening with an opening axis. The throttle cam further comprises a trough-shaped cable track adjoining the cam body. The cable track comprises a track bottom having one end adjacent to cable connection openings, and a pair of track walls separated by the track bottom. The track walls extend away from an opening axis and lie in a radial plane so that, when the cam body is in a closed position, the throttle cable is received in the track bottom, and when the cam body is sufficiently rotated away from the closed position, a portion of the throttle cable is displaced away from the track bottom in the radial plane. The cable track further comprises a cam clip adjoining one of the track walls to obstruct displacement of the throttle cable beyond the track walls when the cam body is rotated away from the closed position.
