Electronic throttle valve control system and two-wheeled motor vehicle
First Claim
1. An electronic throttle valve control system comprising:
- a throttle valve for controlling the amount of intake air to an internal combustion engine;
an electric motor for driving the throttle valve; and
a control section for controlling the electric motor;
wherein the throttle valve has an urging mechanism for urging the throttle valve in a closing direction; and
the control section shifts the electric motor to a regenerative mode to control a speed at which the throttle valve is rotated in the closing direction by an urging force of the urging mechanism when the control system has a failure.

Abstract
[Problem] To provide an electronic throttle valve control system which can prevent rapid rotation of a throttle valve when the control system has a failure.
[Solution] There are provided a throttle valve 10 for controlling the amount of intake air to an internal combustion engine, an electric motor 20 for driving the throttle valve 10, and a control section 21 for controlling the electric motor 20. The throttle valve has an urging mechanism 31 for urging the throttle valve 10 in the closing direction. The control section 21 shifts the electric motor 20 to a regenerative mode when the control system has a failure to control the speed at which the throttle valve 10 is rotated in the closing direction by the urging force of the urging mechanism 30. The throttle valve 10 is therefore rotated slowly in the closing direction by the urging force of the urging mechanism 30 and then held in a predetermined opening position 10b.
