Abstract
Disclosed herein is a throttle controller that uses a clutch means to connect a throttle operation means to a driving means under normal acceleration control. The controller allows the driving means to regulate the opening of the throttle valve independent of an accelerator operation mechanism. This makes it possible to start and run the vehicle smoothly in response to accelerator pedal operation, as well as to provide diverse kinds of control including constant speed drive control. In particular, a second control means independent of a first control means allows a driving control means to control the clutch means, thereby reliably providing constand speed drive control irrespective of accelerator pedal operation.
