Guide seat for an elevator car for dampening of structure-borne noise

A guide seat for an elevator car, the guide seat supporting a guide moving along a guide rail, said guide seat comprising:

• a fixing plate for fixing the guide seat to a frame of the elevator car, the fixing plate having at least one hole therein;
• a cover plate having at least one hole therein;
• a base plate positioned between the fixing plate and the cover plate, the base plate having at least one hole therein;
• guide rollers attached go the base plate;
• at least one insulator being provided between the plates, the at least one insulator dampening noise to the elevator car;
• bushings for each of the at least one insulators, the bushings being coaxial with the holes provided in the plates;
• at least one bolt passing through and being coaxial with the holes in the fixing plate, the cover plate and the base plate to thereby connect the plates, the bolt also passing through the at least one insulator and being coaxial with the bushings and the at least one insulator;
• and
• screws for limiting motion of the plates relative to each other, the screws being engageable with an adjacent plate to stop movement of the plates toward one another.
