Embodiment Construction
[0026]Embodiments of the present invention are generally directed to a bone conduction device for converting a received acoustic sound signal into a mechanical force delivered transcutaneously via a recipient's skull to the recipient's hearing organs. The bone conduction device includes a sound input component, such as microphone, to receive the acoustic sound signal, an electronics module configured to generate an electrical signal representing the acoustic sound signal, and a piezoelectric transducer to convert the electrical signal into a mechanical force for delivery to the recipient's skull. In certain embodiments of the present invention, the transducer is connected to one or several magnets or metal components which are magnetically coupled to magnets implanted between the recipient's bone and skin. In other embodiments of the present invention, one or several metal components, which are connected to the transducer, are magnetically coupled to corresponding magnets that are i...
