Problems solved by technology

Previously known solutions often have comfort issues as they apply too much pressure to a small area of ​​the user's head
On the other hand, solutions that are easily misaligned from their correct position and that cannot be individually fitted to the user's head lead to unsatisfactory evaluation results

[0069] general instructions

[0070] The detailed description set forth below in connection with the accompanying drawings serves as a description of a number of different configurations. The detailed description includes specific details to provide a thorough understanding of various concepts. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art that these concepts may be practiced without these specific details. Several aspects of the apparatus and methods are described in terms of a number of different blocks, functional units, modules, elements, circuits, steps, processes, algorithms, etc. (collectively referred to as "elements"). Depending on the particular application, design constraints, or other reasons, these elements may be implemented using electronic hardware, computer programs or any combination thereof.

[0071] Electronic hardware can include microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), (e.g. application specific) integrated circuits, microprocessors, microcont...

Abstract

The invention discloses a hearing system to be worn on the head of a user. The hearing system comprises a supporting component and at least one bridge base component, wherein the support member supports at least one abutment member, the at least one abutment member having a contact surface, the support member being configured to be placed at the head of the user such that the contact surface of the at least one abutment member contacts the head of the user in a region around one of the ears of the user, in particular in a region of one of the mastoid bones of the user, at least one bridge base component comprises a contact element, and the contact element is configured to transmit the vibration generated by the vibration generating unit towards the contact surface; wherein the contact element is made of a fiber-reinforced plastic material or a non-fiber-reinforced plastic material.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to a hearing system to be worn at the head of a user. More specifically, the present application relates to hearing systems that use vibrations transmitted to the user's mastoid bone to generate the user's auditory perception. Background technique [0002] For some hearing-impaired users, a practical way to significantly improve their hearing can be a so-called bone anchored hearing system (BAHS), where the implant is usually anchored to the user's mastoid bone. The implant will directly contact the mastoid bone and thus will incorporate the structure generated by the associated vibration generator much better than non-surgical solutions (usually implemented as so-called neck straps, headbands, soft straps or sound connectors). The transmitted sound travels to the cochlea, where a layer of skin and underlying tissue must transmit the sound as mechanical vibrations to the user's mastoid bone. Therefore, assessing wheth...
