Abstract
A throttle valve for regulating the introduction of a fuel-air mixture into an internal-combustion engine is provided with a return spring system. The return spring system includes a first coiled spring, a second coiled spring, a hat-shaped bushing for separating the two spring coils and a lever, fixed in relation to a throttle valve housing, for simultaneously loading both spring coils to yieldably urge the throttle valve toward a normal position. The return spring system is positioned at one end of a shaft on which the throttle valve is mounted and operates to yieldably rotate the shaft in a selected direction to orient the throttle valve.
