Abstract
A grip, a magnet 140, and a substrate 150 are included. The grip is rotatable between positions where a throttle is fully closed and a position where the throttle is fully open with a rotating shaft as a center. The magnet 140 rotates integrally with the grip. The substrate 150 includes a plurality of Hall elements 165 and 175, and is fixed to face the magnet 140. The plurality of Hall elements 165 and 175 are disposed in such a way that magnetic flux densities different from each other are respectively applied to the plurality of Hall elements 165 and 175 when an external magnetic field acts in a state where the grip is located in the position where the throttle is fully closed.

A throttle device comprising:
- a rotating body that is rotatable between a first position and a second position with a rotating shaft as a center;
- a magnet that rotates integrally with the rotating body;
- and
- a substrate that includes a plurality of magnetic sensors and that is fixed to face the magnet, wherein
- the plurality of magnetic sensors are disposed in such a way that magnetic flux densities different from each other are respectively applied to the plurality of magnetic sensors when an external magnetic field acts in a state in which the rotating body is located in the first position.
