GSF - The chair guiding system by goracon

How the GSF chair guiding system from Goracon works

The GSF chair slides consist of a housing in which ball-bearing slides travel on a high-strength linear unit. The travel paths of the GSF can be ergonomically adjusted to suit the individual table, chair and other conditions.

A separate, beautifully designed chair leg holder is mounted on the carriage above the inspection cover. The inspection cover has 2 minimal openings, parallel to each other, which prevent the penetration of foreign bodies and shoe heels.

The conical opening of the chair leg receptacles is used to accommodate the multifunction gas spring/rotating column of the chair. The height of the column is adjusted depending on the chair system, armrests and table/counter. The slides are driven by expanders that can be adjusted depending on the chair weight and other factors in order to achieve an optimal travel speed of the chair.

The multi-functional column or the rotary column always turns the seat back to its original position, so that the chair direction and seat height are always in their original position relative to the table.

The travel distance is variable and depends on various factors such as the space available, the distance between the tables and the application. The optimum travel path is adapted to the conditions on site together with the customer. Our experienced engineers will be happy to work out a customized solution for you.

The multifunctional column or the swivel column always returns the seat to its original position, so that the chair direction and seat height are always in the original position in relation to the table. The chair is mounted with a multifunctional column or a swivel column on the chair leg holder. A cone opening is provided on the chair leg holder for this purpose. The sturdy aluminium housing is closed with a cover plate that is flush with the base. The cover plate has 2 minimal, parallel openings that prevent foreign bodies and shoe heels from entering.
