A device for governing the idling rpm of an internal combustion engine which prevents a leakage. A closing element is axially and radially displaceable by a second spring and maintained to be angularly movable on the valve element and/or the regulator housing. Frustoconical surfaces are advantageously embodied on the closing element, the regulator housing and the valve element, so that the closing element can be centered on the conical seats. The springs are disposed parallel to each other, and the closing element is acted upon by a spring force in the closing direction and the valve element is acted upon by a spring force in the opening direction. The device is particularly suited for governing the idling rpm of a mixture-compressing, spark-ignition internal combustion engine by means of controlling the quantity of aspirated air flowing in a flow line to the engine.
A device for governing the idling rpm of an internal combustion engine by controlling a quantity of operating fluid that flows in a flow line to the engine, having an electromagnetic regulating drive (22) disposed in a drive housing (15) that is activated by a speed-dependent control signal, a regulator housing (13) and an adjusting element (21) coupled to the regulating drive, said adjusting element is engaged by a first spring (36) and at whose end remote from the regulating drive, a valve element (29) is disposed, by means of which a closing element (30) engaged by a second spring (28) is displaceable from a closing position into an opening position when the regulating drive is activated, and the valve element assumes an open position when the regulating drive is not activated and a closed position during increasing activation, the closing element (30) has a first frustoconical surface (37) that rests against a first corresponding surface (44) embodied on the regulator housing (13) in the closed position of the closing element (30) and, with this surface, forms a first conical seat (38), and has a second frustoconical surface (39) that rests against a second corresponding surface (45) embodied on the valve element (29) in the open position of the closing element (30) and, with this surface, forms a second conical seat (40), and that the first and second springs (28, 36) are disposed parallel to each other such that when the valve element (29) is adjusted into the open position or the closed position, only the force of the first spring (28) is effective.
