Embodiment Construction

[0030] [0029] Figures 1a and 1b show the hearing aid 1 from different perspectives. The hearing aid 1 comprises four parts, namely the hearing aid housing 2 , the earplug 3 , the hook 4 and the sound tube 5 . The hearing aid housing 2 may contain all electronics of the hearing aid, including input and output sensors, signal processing means, switches, batteries and the like.

[0031] [0030] The hook 4 is attached to the hearing aid housing 2. The attachment of the hook 4 to the hearing aid housing 2 may be of varying degrees of permanent nature. That is, it can be detachable without the use of tools, or it can be mechanically engaged with the housing so that parts of the housing can be removed without the use of tools for the purpose of replacing or removing the hooks. One end of the sound tube 5 is attached to the other end of the hook 4 . The other end of the sound tube 5 is attached to the earplug 3 .

[0032] [0031] The sound tube 5, and in particular the earplug, is p...

Abstract

A hook for a hearing aid. The hook comprises a sound passage for transmitting the sound emanating from an output transducer of the hearing aid. The hook furthermore comprises damping means for damping mechanical vibrations thereof.

Description

field of invention [0001] [0001] The present invention relates to hooks for hearing aids, in particular behind-the-ear (BTE-type) hearing aids, and hearing aids using such hooks. Background technique [0002] [0002] Behind-the-ear hearing aids typically have a hearing aid housing that includes an outer shell in which all electronics of the hearing aid, including input and output sensors, are typically located. The cover is worn behind the ear (Behind the Ear), hence the abbreviation for Behind the Ear (BTE). If the output transducer is located within the hearing aid housing, the output sound from the hearing aid is conducted via the sound tube to an earplug placed in the ear of the person wearing the hearing aid. [0003] [0003] Behind-the-ear hearing aids typically have a hook-shaped portion that forms the transition from the housing of the hearing aid (in which the sound output sensor is located) to the sound tube. This hook portion may be integrally formed with the oute...
