Device for actuating a throttle valve, in particular a throttle valve of an intake system of an internal combustion engine

The invention relates to a device for controlling a throttle valve (1), in particular a throttle valve arranged in an intake system of an internal combustion engine, by means of an actuating motor (2), in which at least one device for thermal decoupling between throttle valve (1) and actuating motor (2) is arranged. The shaft (6) of the actuating motor (2) is coupled via a torque-transmitting coupling element (4) with defined low heat transfer capability to the shaft (5) of the throttle valve (1).
