Simply a device to prevent the throttle from moving more than a pre-determined amount.

On "butterfly" throttle plate equiped engines this can be to stop the throttle plate from moving past the ideal highest flow point. If it moves past this point the air flow can hold the throttle open.

In other cases a throttle stop can be used to limit the amount of power the engine can produce by limiting how much throttle can be employed. Common an small beginer quads and motorcycles so daddy can keep the speed down to a non-fatal level.
