Abstract
The invention relates to a throttle device for controlling a fluid flow in an internal combustion engine, with a multi-part housing, whose first housing part and whose additional housing half rest against each other at contact surfaces and the fluid flow is controlled by means of a flat valve element, which can be adjusted in the flow conduit of the fluid flow by an actuating drive. The throttle device contains at least one sealing and compensation element, whose shaping of its inner wall defines the flow cross section of the fluid flow in the throttle device and which has a contact surface, which can seal cavities on its side oriented toward the housing.
