A restoring unit for an internal combustion engine may include a restoring console including a substantially cylindrical bearing dome. A first bearing unit may include a first receiving opening. The bearing dome may be rotatably inserted into the first receiving opening about an axis of the restoring console. A spring element may be arranged at least partially on an outer circumferential face of the bearing dome, and the restoring console may be preloaded via the spring element against the first bearing unit. The bearing dome may be detachably arranged in the first receiving opening via a clip connection. The clip connection may include a radial through-slot disposed on a first face side of the bearing dome facing the first receiving opening. The bearing dome may have a console bearing face mounting the restoring console within the first bearing unit.

Restoring unit, particularly for an internal combustion engine

An internal combustion engine may include a cylinder head having a plurality of intake channels which lead to combustion chambers. A fresh gas distributor may be included for feeding fresh gas to the intake channels. The fresh gas distributor may have a flap arrangement including a flap shaft, which bears at least one flap for controlling the intake channels. The flap shaft may be mounted such that the flap rotates about a flap rotation axis. The fresh gas distributor may have a housing flange securing the fresh gas distributor to the cylinder head. The flap arrangement may be arranged in a region of the housing flange in a distributor housing of the fresh gas distributor. The cylinder head may have a recess, into which the fresh gas distributor is inserted in a region of the flap arrangement.
