Abstract

In a throttle-valve connection (1), two intake channels (2, 3) are provided alongside of each other, each having a throttle valve (4, 5). The two throttle valve (4, 5) are driven by separate setting motors (17, 18). The setting shaft (6, 7) of the throttle valve (4, 5) are connected to each other by an entrainment connection (8) which has play. Sliding clutches (9, 10) permit rotation of the throttle valve (6, 7) in the direction towards idling even if the gearing (11, 12) or setting motor (17, 18) is blocked.
