Abstract
A sliding-link mechanism is proposed, which serves in particular to actuate a throttle device in the intake tube of an internal combustion engine. The sliding-link mechanism is disposed by way of example on a throttle valve assembly and includes a variable-fulcrum lever, which is firmly connected to a shaft and has a kidney-shaped oblong slot groove, which is engaged by a roller rotatably supported on a shaft. The shaft is secured on a roller lever, which with a hub is seated on an eccentric sleeve, which can be rotatable about a shaft secured to the throttle valve assembly. The eccentric sleeve and the hub have meshing teeth which by axial displacement relative to one another become disengaged, so that by rotating the eccentric sleeve the position of the roller lever relative to the variable-fulcrum lever can be varied in such a way that in the outset position the roller comes to rest on the end of the oblong slot groove. Subsequently the eccentric sleeve is displaced axially relative to the hub in such a way that the teeth mesh with one another and the eccentric sleeve is fixed on the hub.
