Abstract

An electric device for eliminating the jerking of vehicles, particularly automotive vehicles with internal combustion engines and with a control member which influences the intake thereof, and particularly idle-speed intake measures are taken in order for the jerk speed of rotation to run through automatically, that is it cannot be continuously set by the driver by any position of the gas pedal. For this purpose there are provided means for detecting the actual speed of rotation, means for comparing the actual speed of rotation with the set jerk speed of rotation as well as limiting means for producing a signal within a predetermined rotary speed range, which signal controls the control member, within which rotary range is the jerk speed of rotation. These means are developed such that the control member causes an intake which increases with the actual speed of rotation, within the critical speed of rotation range.
