Throttle valve control device
View Patent ↗Provided is a throttle valve control device having sufficient reliability while having three attachment holes of the throttle valve control device. A throttle valve control device 1 includes a throttle body 2 having an intake passage 3 , drives a throttle valve 8 for controlling an intake air flow rate or a pressure, disposed in the intake passage, with a motor 4 via a throttle gear 10 , and is attached externally with a bolt inserted into an attachment hole formed in the throttle body. The throttle valve control device 1 is characterized in that only three attachment holes are formed in the throttle body, one attachment hole 19 among the three attachment holes is formed closer to a center of gravity of the throttle valve control device than the other two attachment holes 20 and 21 , and the one attachment hole is formed between the motor and a throttle shaft.
1. A throttle valve control device comprising a throttle body having an intake passage,
the throttle valve control device driving a throttle valve for controlling an intake air flow rate or a pressure, disposed in the intake passage, with a motor via a throttle gear, and
the throttle valve control device being attached externally with a bolt inserted into an attachment hole formed in the throttle body, wherein
only three attachment holes are formed in the throttle body,
one attachment hole among the three attachment holes is formed closer to a center of gravity of the throttle valve control device than the other two attachment holes,
the one attachment hole is formed between the motor and a throttle shaft,
the center of gravity is located separate from and immediately adjacent to a portion of the throttle body that defines the one attachment hole, and the other two attachment holes are formed on a side that is distal from the center of gravity.
2. A throttle valve control device comprising a throttle body having an intake passage,
the throttle valve control device driving a throttle valve for controlling an intake air flow rate or a pressure, disposed in the intake passage, with a motor via a throttle gear, and
the throttle valve control device being attached externally with a bolt inserted into an attachment hole formed in the throttle body, wherein
only three attachment holes are formed in the throttle body,
one attachment hole among the three attachment holes is formed on one side of a throttle shaft and the other two attachment holes are formed on a side opposite to the throttle shaft,
the one attachment hole is formed between the motor and the throttle shaft, and
the center of gravity is located separate from and immediately adjacent to a portion of the throttle body that defines the one attachment hole.
3. The throttle valve control device according to claim 1 , wherein
in a case where the throttle valve control device is divided into first to fourth quadrants in a counterclockwise direction based on a center of the intake passage when the intake passage is viewed in a penetration direction of the intake passage such that the throttle shaft is located on the first and fourth quadrant side and the motor is located on the second and third quadrant side, or the throttle shaft is located on the second and third quadrant side and the motor is located on the first and fourth quadrant side, and the throttle valve is located on the first and second quadrant side and the throttle gear is located on the third and fourth quadrant side,
the motor is disposed in the same quadrant as the one attachment hole.
4. The throttle valve control device according to claim 1 , wherein the throttle valve is used as a supply pressure switching valve of a gasoline engine.
5. The throttle valve control device according to claim 1 , wherein the throttle valve is used as a suction pressure control valve of a diesel engine.
6. The throttle valve control device according to claim 1 , wherein the throttle valve is used as a negative pressure control valve for controlling a hydrogen concentration of a fuel cell.
