Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of hearing aids, in particular to an adaptive suspension method and system for air conduction hearing aids. BACKGROUND

[0002] The air conduction hearing aid is a digital programmable behind-the-ear hearing aid. The product performance structure and composition are a digital programmable behind-the-ear hearing aid. It is composed of a miniature microphone (microphone), a signal amplification and processing circuit, a miniature earphone (speaker), a shell, a switch and a sound guide tube, and is suitable for hearing recovery of hearing impaired patients.

[0003] At present, when the user wears the hearing aid, the hearing aid body is usually plugged into the ear hole, and the body is clamped on the ear, which can be used. However, the size of different people's ears is different, and the clamping force of the hearing aid body is different when wearing. When some people wear the hearing aid and move, the suspended hearing aid body is prone to shaking and falling. SUMMARY

[0004] In view of the problems in the prior art, the present application provides an adaptive suspension method and system for air conduction hearing aids.

[0005] The technical scheme adopted by the present application to solve its technical problems is: an adaptive suspension system for air conduction hearing aids, comprising a hearing aid body, an alarm module connected inside the hearing aid body, the hearing aid body being in an arc shape and having an air bag fixedly connected to the inner side, the air bag being in an arc shape, a gas cover fixedly connected to the front lower end of the hearing aid body, the gas cover being connected in communication with the air bag through a connecting pipe, the gas cover being connected to an air pump through an air inlet pipe, the air pump being signal connected to the hearing aid body, and the gas cover being connected with a detection module and a valve inside.

[0006] Specifically, the detection module is a pressure sensor for detecting the air pressure in the air bag to avoid damage to the air bag due to excessive internal pressure.

[0007] Specifically, the alarm module is a loudspeaker for prompting the user that the air pressure in the air bag is about to reach a predetermined value and manually stopping the air charging.

[0008] Specifically, the air pump is a wireless intelligent device connected to the hearing aid body through Bluetooth, which facilitates automatic shutdown of the air pump when the air pressure reaches the predetermined value.

[0009] Specifically, the air bag is wrapped with a layer of rubber, so that the air bag can be tightly attached to the surrounding skin.

[0010] An adaptive suspension method for air conduction hearing aids, comprising: Connect the air inlet pipe to the air cover, put the earplug of the hearing aid into the ear hole, hang the hearing aid body on the ear, pull the air bag, hook the air bag under the ear, connect the air pump to the power supply, start the air pump, and connect the air pump and the hearing aid body through Bluetooth; Turn on the valve, and the air pump fills air into the air cover through the air inlet pipe. The air in the air cover enters the inside of the air bag through the connecting pipe, so that the air bag gradually expands. The expanded air bag will tightly adhere to the surrounding skin, so that the air bag is tightly hooked on the user's ear, and the hearing aid body is fixed on the user's ear. During this process, the detection module detects the air pressure in the air bag; When the air bag is about to reach the predetermined value, the warning module will issue a warning to prompt the user to manually stop inflating to avoid damage to the air bag. When the predetermined value is reached, the hearing aid body applies a closing instruction to the air pump to automatically stop inflating. During the inflation period, the user can turn off the air pump at the appropriate time according to their own comfort, and remove the air inlet pipe from the air cover. At this time, the user can start the hearing aid to collect the surrounding sound through the hearing aid.

[0011] Specifically, the valve is fixed at the joint of the air cover and the air inlet pipe. Before connection, the valve can be cleaned by tools to prevent foreign matter from entering the inside of the air bag.

[0012] Specifically, the air inlet pipe is made of soft material and is wound around the air pump before use. During use, the air inlet pipe can be unwound to ensure that the user can stretch the air inlet pipe when wearing the hearing aid body.

[0013] The present application has the following advantages: by providing an arc-shaped air bag on the body, the arc-shaped air bag is hooked on the user's ear when worn, and then the air bag is inflated by the air pump to expand and tightly fix on the user's ear, and then the hearing aid body is fixed on the user's ear, so that the user can wear the hearing aid and move without the hearing aid body shaking or falling off.

After inflating, air bag 2 will stick tightly to the surrounding skin, so that air bag 2 is tightly hooked on the user's ear, fixing hearing aid body 1 on the user's ear. During this process, the detection module will detect the air pressure in air bag 2. When the air bag 2 is about to reach the predetermined value, the warning module 8 will give an alarm to prompt the user to manually stop the inflation to avoid damage to the air bag 2, and when the predetermined value is reached, the hearing aid body 1 applies a closing instruction to the inflation pump 6 to automatically stop the inflation, and the user closes the inflation pump 6 at a suitable time according to the comfort of the user during the inflation, and takes the air inlet pipe off the air cover 3, at which time the user can start the hearing aid to collect the surrounding sound through the hearing aid.

[0024] Specifically, the valve 9 is fixed at the joint of the air cover 3 and the air inlet pipe 5, and the valve 9 can be cleaned by tools before connection to avoid foreign matter entering the inside of the air bag 2.

[0025] Specifically, the air inlet pipe 2 is made of soft material and is wound on the inflation pump 6 before use, and when used, the air inlet pipe 2 can be unwound to ensure that the user wears the hearing aid body 1 to stretch the air inlet pipe 5.
