Electronic throttle body

The invention discloses an electronic throttle body which comprises a throttle body (1), a throttle shaft (2), a throttle plate (3), a position sensor (4) and a DC (direct current) motor, wherein a motor gear arranged on the DC motor is meshed with a middle gear arranged on the throttle body (1), the middle gear is meshed with a sector gear arranged on the throttle shaft (2), a limiting mechanism is arranged on the throttle body (1) and the sector gear, and a torsional spring is connected with the throttle body and the sector gear; when the DC motor does not output power, the throttle plate (3) is located at a high-idling position under the torsional action of the torsional spring; and the torsional spring is composed of a left torsional spring and a right torsional spring which are connected by a middle end. The electronic throttle body disclosed by the invention has the advantages that when one of the two torsional springs fails, the other torsional spring still can control the throttle plate to reset to the high-idling position, thereby improving the security.
