Abstract
A throttle valve assembly for displacing the plungers of at least two contiguous throttle valves in correspondence with the degree of throttle opening of an engine includes a first cam rotatably mounted on a stationary bracket fixed to the throttle valve bodies and having a cam face for displacing the plunger of the first throttle valve and an axially extending boss, a second cam rotatably mounted on the bracket and having a cam face for displacing the plunger of the second throttle valve and an axially extending boss, the first and second cams being coupled via coupling means formed on the opposing bosses, and a cable operatively associated with the engine torque demand for rotating the cams. The cam faces of the cams are formed to have a shape capable of providing the desired throttle pressure characteristic, the shapes of the cam faces differing from each other in order to obtain the optimum speed-change performance.
