Embodiment Construction

[0013] The present invention will be further elaborated below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0014] Such as Figure 1 to Figure 3 As shown, the present invention provides a cochlear implant, including an extracorporeal machine 1 and its implant 2, wherein the extracorporeal machine 1 is partly worn on the auricle, partly hidden in the auricle, and is firmly worn. The implant 2 implanted in the body.

[0015] The external machine 1 includes a shell 11, a microphone 12, a voice processing module 13, a battery 14, and a transmitting coil 15 thereof, wherein the shell 11 includes a main shell 111 and an auricle shell 112 thereof, the microphone 12, the voice processing The module 13 and the battery 14 are both placed in the main casing 111, the transmitting coil 15 is placed in the auricle shell 112, the auricle shell 112 is designed in the shape of the auricle, and the transmitting coil 15 is also designed in the shape of the auricle. The auricle-shaped auricl...

Abstract

The invention discloses an artificial cochlea, which comprises an external machine and an implant, wherein the external machine comprises a shell, a microphone, a voice processing module, a battery and a transmitting coil, the shell includes a main machine shell and an auricle shell, the microphone, the voice processing module and the battery are placed in the main machine shell, the transmittingcoil is placed in the auricle shell, and the transmitting coil and the auricle shell are in the shape of an auricle; and the implant includes a receiving coil, a decoding module and a stimulating electrode, and the receiving coil, the decoding module and the stimulating electrode are sequentially connected. The artificial cochlea eliminates connecting cables through an integrated design of the components of the external machine, and the reliability of the external machine is enhanced. Meanwhile, the auricle-shaped design of the transmitting coil enables the external machine to be not easy to fall off, eliminates magnets and is easy to wear, the large-size transmitting coil and receiving coli enables the coupling efficiency of the coils to be higher, and the power consumption is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a hearing aid device, in particular to a cochlear implant. Background technique [0002] Cochlear implants are currently the only effective device and method recognized worldwide that can restore hearing to patients with bilateral severe or extremely severe sensorineural deafness. Cochlear implants (also known as bionic ears, cochlear electronics, and cochlear implants) are one of the miracles of modern medicine. Cochlear implants are designed to help patients with severe deafness recover their hearing and language communication skills. Cochlear implants are a new technology for the rehabilitation of deaf people that has developed rapidly in recent years. After implantation, patients with severe hearing and speech impairments can say goodbye to sign language and lip reading through speech rehabilitation training, and can communicate with others through hearing and speech like normal people. Integrate into family and society. ...
