Abstract

The invention discloses a hearing device with a fixation arrangement. The hearing device comprises a housing configured to be arranged in the ear canal or behind the outer ear of a user, wherein an attachment arrangement is connected to the housing. The attachment arrangement comprises at least one first attachment part and at least one second attachment part, wherein the first attachment part isconfigured to be disposed on one side facing an opening of the ear canal of the user, of auricle of the user, the second attachment part is configured to be disposed on the side opposite to the firstattachment part, of the auricle, and then the first attachment part and the second attachment part of the attachment arrangement are fixed with each other by means of one or more attracting members oneach of the first and / or second attachment part, wherein the first and / or second attachment part includes one or more sensor elements arranged to be brought into contact with a skin portion of the user's ear.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a hearing device having a housing configured for placement in the ear canal or behind the outer ear of a user. The invention relates in particular to a hearing instrument having connection means to the aforementioned housing, wherein the connection means comprises a first connection part and a second connection part configured to be arranged at both sides of the pinna of a user. Background technique [0002] For eHealth hearing devices, including hearing aids, it is often necessary to place sensor elements, such as electrodes, in contact with the wearer's skin. Especially with behind-the-ear (BTE) and receiver-in-the-ear (RITE) hearing aids, it is difficult to ensure that the sensor element is attached with sufficient pressure towards the skin to maintain skin contact. [0003] The prior art proposes the use of adhesives. However, this solution is costly over time and can lead to anaphylaxis problems (anaphylaxis). O...
