English translation:a type of window mechanism
Explanation:
From the relatively few google hits for the German term, it appears to be a certain type of window mechanism for house windows. Unfortunately, none of the obvious guesses (e.g. chamber mechanisism) yield any useful hits in English, and I can't find any site that explains exactly what a Kammergetriebe is. Perhaps you can ask your client.

Thank you for your help, much appreciated. I just put window mechanism in the end with a comment, as I couldn't get any feedback from the customer - still don't know!

Explanation:
perhaps. "window" might be optional here in your context. It could be quite a dangerous thing :). Good luck, Christine Tochtermann!
