Abstract

A vehicle seat console has at least one vehicle-mounted guiding element, at least one seat-mounted guiding element that runs parallel to the vehicle-mounted guiding element, and a longitudinal adjustment mechanism on which a driving device acts via a transmission mechanism and which is designed to cause a relative adjustment between the vehicle-mounted guiding element and the seat-mounted guiding element. The vehicle seat console is characterized in that the longitudinal adjustment mechanism and/or the transmission mechanism is/are equipped with at least one energy absorption device which is configured to dampen abrupt relative movements between the vehicle-mounted guiding element and the seat-mounted guiding element.
