The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair is for use primarily indoors in care facilities and private homes.
The width of the Kamille Comfort Wheelchair generally allows it to pass through ordinary doorways.
It may be difficult for some particularly wide Kamille Comfort Wheelchairs to pass through ordinary doors and emergency exits.
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair is intended to provide mobility for users who are in a sitting position for prolonged hours. Max. user weight 140 kg.
The wheelchair is intended to be operated by a qualified healthcare professional, e.g., a therapist, nurse, or care worker.

Crash tested
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair has been crash- tested at an accredited test institute in Germany. This means that it can be used as a seat for a bariatric user in a motor vehicle.

Contraindications
Users with impaired cognitive function must be monitored in connection with use of the Kamille Comfort Wheelchair.

Kamille Power with drive motor.
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair is also available in an electric propulsion variant (the Kamille Power Comfort Wheelchair). The motor can be retrofitted in previously purchased wheelchairs.

The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair
Construction
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair provides exceptional support because its design is so flexible that it can support contractures in both upper extremities and lower extremities without special adaptation.
The potential to adapt optimally to the individual helps to increase activity level, function level and quality of life.
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair seat can be tilted up to 45°, which aids in transfers and other manoeuvres. The back can be angled up to 35°.
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair can also be adapted to the user’s hip, knee, and ankle joints.
Electrically adjustable back and electric tilt-in- space
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair comes with an electrically adjustable back and electric tilt-in- space as standard. The various electrical functions are continuously variable, which means the user will not experience any annoying lurches.
The electric function also allows adjustment of the hip angle and the angling of the seat back.
The electrically adjustable back function locks automatically.
Electric tilt-in-space and back adjustment ensure better working conditions for the helper, who can avoid using their own body weight when handling the wheelchair.
The electric functions are activated with a remote control that can be operated by either the user or the helper.
Greater quality of life
The comfort and peace of mind that the user can experience in the Kamille Comfort Wheelchair can help raising the level of function.
An increased level of function can lead to a higher degree of flexibility, quality of life and desire to be part of social relationships and activities.

Accessories and re-adjustment
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair can be upgraded with a table, stretch covers and various types of weighted cushions, headrests, flexi arms and legrests. All accessories can be adjusted for the individual user.

Re-adjustment
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair can be reused because the large selection of accessories makes it easy to re-adjust the wheelchair.
Re-adjustments should always be carried out in collaboration with trained therapist.

Retrofitting a motor
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair can be retrofitted with a motor for propulsion. The drive motor has a joystick, which can be operated by either the user or the helper.

Seat system

Padded skirt guards.
Asymmetrical adjusting makes it easier to address anatomical challenges.

The seating system can be adjusted for users with asymmetry issues. The seat system consists of two independent plates that can be positioned independently of each other via slots.
The two independent plates in the seat system ensure a precise adjustment that matches the user’s individual anatomical needs.
This benefits users who are challenged by e.g., anisomelia (unequal leg lengths), difference in the amount of tissue on the UE or hip joint abduction. The potential to adjust asymmetrically also addresses challenges faced with windswept posture.
The position of the seat plates can be adjusted manually with ordinary tools.

Skirt guards
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair is equipped with padded skirt guards that follow the movements and angle of the seat plate.
The padded skirt guards can also be "folded out" to the sides to facilitate transfers.

Back system
The back can be adjusted asymmetrically. This makes it easier to address anatomical challenges such as scoliosis, increased lateral flexion or asymmetric tissue caused by e.g., being overweight, hernias or oedema.
Asymmetrical adjustment is possible thanks to the three aluminium plates that make up the back system. Two of the plates can be moved independently of each other, even though all three plates are connected.
The back system consists of the back base, which is mounted in six slots. The slots allow the back base to be adjusted in height.
The side plates, mounted in two slots, can be loosened using ordinary tools. When the two nuts are loosened, it is possible to adjust the width and angle of the back.
The recline function of the back system is designed to reduce the risk of shear of tissue when the back angle is altered. The height of the back can be increased by 80 mm (using a back extender) without compromising the settings of the back system.
The back extender (optional) consists of three plates mounted on the back system. The back extender can also be adjusted asymmetrically.


The design of the back system reduces the risk of shear of tissue when altering the angle.

Padded body supports (optional)
Specially developed body supports placed in slots on the back system contribute to near-body trunk stability, regardless of whether the user has scoliosis or decreased/increased thoracic tone.
The body supports on the back system can be placed very close to the user reducing the risk of the user "falling out of" or "falling over" the body support.
Multiple body supports can be placed on each side for more complex needs.
The body supports on the Kamille Comfort Wheelchair are padded with viscoelastic foam and polystyrene beads.


Angled padded body supports

Legrests
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair is equipped with swing-away legrests as standard. Swing-away legrests support the user in "manual transfer" from the nursing bed to the wheelchair for a longer period.
The legrests can be height-adjusted and angle- adjusted above the knee and ankle joints. The legrests are padded with foam on the outside and a cushion (viscoelastic foam and polystyrene beads) on the inside.
The padding on the outside is made of foam to reduce the risk of unwanted contact with the frame.
With the help of small inserts (additional), the footrests can go from two-part to unified for use in cases of e.g., severe adduction.
The swing-away function can also lock the legrests at more open angles, which allow users with legs in abduction position to sit in a fully supported position.
Joints for mounting of detachable swing-away legrests is also available.

The legrests can be height-adjusted and angle-adjusted above the knee and ankle joints.

Legrests with swing away function

Armrests
The position of the armrest can be adjusted relatively easily using an Allen key.
The armrest can be angled inwards, downwards, and upwards or adjusted in height using thumb screws. This allows the armrest to be angled to accommodate increased muscle contraction or over-/underactivity in the muscles of the upper extremities.
The armrest padding contains the same type of filling as the other cushions on the Kamille Comfort Wheelchair.
The padding increases the number of sensory stimuli and minimises the risk of pressure sores.
The armrest can be angled to a natural resting position.
Weighted flex arm supports can be purchased to support the user’s arms and help provide additional security, peace of mind and comfort.

Armrest with three thumb screws on the side.
The bottom screw allows the armrest to be removed. The middle screw adjusts the height.
The top screw angles the armrest forwards, backwards and out (swing-away).

Cushion system
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair is equipped with a complete and unique cushion system that ensures optimal pressure distribution and near- body positioning.
The cushions are filled with a mix of polystyrene beads and viscoelastic foam, which together contribute to increased sensory stimuli. Each cushion has its own zipper.
The cushions are modellable and can be continuously adjusted for the individual user. This provides high recycling value in line with sustainability requirements.
The cushions have been carefully designed to fit the body part that they support.
The cushions have been kept in a neutral tone because experience shows that dark colours can seem "bottomless" for users with impaired visual- cognitive function.

The cushions are modellable and can be manually adjusted for the individual user.

Headrest
The arm of the headrest consists of replaceable strong ball joints. The ball joints help to ensure flexibility without the headrest shifting.
The ball joints can be adjusted with an Allen key.
There are two cushion elements mounted on the headrest; a soft foam base covered with neoprene and a soft cushion with three chambers filled with polystyrene beads and viscoelastic foam.
The individual chambers can be adjusted as required.


The arm of the headrest consists of replaceable strong ball joints.

Push bar
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair is equipped with a push bar for easy manoeuvring. The push bar is designed so that it can be used in various positions.
The angle of the push bar can be adjusted using the two thumb screws located on the right and left sides of the push bar.


Brakes
The brake levers are mounted on the push bar. The levers are equipped with a lock that can be unlocked by holding the brake lever in while pressing the red release button.

The push bar is mounted on the brackets, where the thumb screws can be found on the sides.

Wheel type
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair is equipped with 12 ½” solid wheels in grey nylon rubber as standard, which will not leave marks on the floor.
The solid wheels are equipped with a drum brake that is operated by the brake levers located on the push bar.
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair is also available in an electric propulsion version. Alternatively, a motor can be retrofitted to a previously purchased the Kamille Comfort Wheelchair.
The Power version has the motor built into the 12 ½” wheels. The total width is therefore greater on the electric propulsion variant.

Solid wheels 12 ½” in grey nylon rubber.

Charger
The control box is fitted under the seat. The charging cable hanging from the control box is connected to an electrical outlet.
The wheelchair’s on-board electronics cannot disrupt the operation of devices in the surroundings that emit electromagnetic fields, e.g., alarm systems in shops, automatic doors, etc.
The electronics are IPX6-rated. This means that the Kamille Comfort Wheelchair and its components can withstand washing with water.
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair is not equipped with an emergency stop device because the wheelchair is not able to run automatically.

Electric tilt in space and electrically adjustable back
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair comes with an electrically adjustable back (recliner) and electric tilt in space as standard. This provides continuously variable, calm, and comfortable adjustment of the seat unit, which can be performed while the user sits in the wheelchair.
The anti-shear recline function on the Kamille Comfort Wheelchair is unique. The electrically adjustable back is designed to minimise the risk of shear, as the axis of rotation is located based on the position of the pelvis.
The electric tilt in space is activated when the seat/back unit needs to be angled. This feature is important for users who need to vary sitting positions during the day to:
- avoid pain
- prevent pressure sores
- achieve trunk stability
- achieve head control.
The electric tilt in space is also important when a side position angle must be achieved to ensure that the user’s head position is as upright as possible.

Remote control
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair is awakened from "sleep" by pressing any button on the remote control.
The battery indicator can be found at the top of the remote control. The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair must be charged preferably before the battery flashes in the red field.
The Kamille Comfort Wheelchair will charge when the cable in the control box is connected to the power outlet.
Below the battery indicator on the remote control is the recline function (back adjustment). The arrow keys control the recline function from 96° to 131°.
Under the recline function is the tilt function. The seat on the Kamille Comfort Wheelchair can be tilted from 0° to 45°.

Actuators
There are two actuators under the seat of the Kamille Comfort Wheelchair. A seat actuator and a back actuator.
The remote control shows the:
1. Battery indicator
2. Recline function
3. Tilt function
4. RESET function
