Carony® 16
The Carony system consists of three parts: the seat, the wheel base and the swivel base. Together with the wheelbase the seat will become a standard transport wheelchair. Together with the swivel base the seat becomes a tested and approved car seat. This means anyone, wheelchair user or not, can sit up front in the Carony seat, use the car’s original seat belt and enjoy a safe and comfortable ride.
The Seat
This is where the user sits, safely and comfortably. It is the moving part of the Carony that slides with the user between wheel base and swivel base. The seat has many different features for good posture and pressure relief. For example, raising the front of the seat cushion and reclining backrest. It also has integrated carer handles with brakes.
The Wheel base
This is the wheel base. Together with the seat it forms the Carony wheelchair. This is where you find details such as foot rests, the crank for height adjustment and the parking brake. To make it easy to move around and safe to park, it has premium 16" wheels with disc brakes. The height adjustment crank helps to match the height of the car when docking, but it can also be useful for various situations in and around the home.
The Swivel base
To enable the wheel base to dock and to hold the Carony seat, the swivel base takes the place of the original car seat. As the name suggest it can rotate towards the door opening so that the wheel base can dock on. Depending on the height and size of your car the Swivel base can look and function differently. In a higher car it could rotate out and lower down before docking the seat. And then lift both seat and user into the vehicle.
