[0038] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3, an embodiment of the present application provides a circuit board mounting structure, which is applied to a behind-the-ear hearing aid. The circuit board mounting structure includes a housing 1, a button assembly 4, and a circuit board assembly 2. The button assembly 4 and the circuit board assembly 2 are connected to the housing 1. Among them, the circuit board assembly 2 is used to process and transmit sound signals, amplify, filter, etc. the received sound to meet the hearing needs of the user, and transmit the processed signal to the relevant sound generating components. For example, when external sound enters the behind-the-ear hearing aid, the circuit board assembly 2 will analyze and optimize the sound so that the user can hear the sound more clearly. The button assembly 4 is used to control various functions of the behind-the-ear hearing aid, such as adjusting the volume, switching different sound modes, or turning on / off the behind-the-ear hearing aid. For example, the user can increase the volume by pressing the button assembly 4 to adapt to different ambient sound levels; or when quiet is needed, turn off the behind-the-ear hearing aid through the button assembly 4.

[0039] In this embodiment, the housing 1 includes a first shell wall 11 and a second shell wall 12. The first shell wall 11 is connected to the second shell wall 12 to enclose an installation cavity 13. The circuit board assembly 2 is disposed in the installation cavity 13. One end of the button assembly 4 is located in the installation cavity 13 and is connected to the circuit board assembly 2, and the other end of the button assembly 4 penetrates through the first shell wall 11 and is exposed outside. The circuit board assembly 2 has an assembly surface, and a first edge 201 and a second edge 202 are respectively provided on both sides of the assembly surface. The first edge 201 and the first shell wall 12 are in a contoured design, and the second edge 202 and the second shell wall 12 are in a contoured design. The assembly surface is configured to be provided with a plurality of electronic components, and the assembly surface is arranged parallel to a preset direction. Among them, the first edge 201 and the second edge 202 are located on opposite sides of the circuit board assembly. The first edge 201 is contoured with the inner side of the first shell wall 11, that is, the first edge 201 is curved, and the first edge 201 of the circuit board assembly 2 abuts against the inner side of the first shell wall 11. The second edge 202 of the circuit board assembly 2 is contoured with the inner side of the second shell wall 12, that is, the second edge 202 is curved, and the second edge 202 of the circuit board assembly 2 abuts against the inner side of the second shell wall 12.

[0040] In this embodiment, the housing 1 is in a water droplet shape, the first shell wall 11 protrudes outward relative to the installation cavity 13, and the second shell wall 13 is concave relative to the installation cavity 13. Correspondingly, the circuit board assembly 2 is generally in a water droplet shape, the side of the circuit board assembly 2 facing the first shell wall 11 protrudes, and the side facing the second shell wall 12 is concave. When wearing the behind-the-ear hearing aid, the first shell wall 11 abuts against the outer side of the auricle.

[0041] In this embodiment, the button assembly 4 includes two contact heads 411, and the two contact heads 411 extend into the installation cavity 13 and are connected to the contacts 21 of the circuit board assembly 2.

[0042] The circuit board mounting structure provided by the present application has a curved shell wall on one side of the housing 1, making the entire circuit board mounting structure a curved structure with an installation cavity 13 inside. The two side edges of the circuit board assembly 2 are curved, making the entire circuit board assembly 2 also a curved structure. The button assembly 4 is mounted on the curved shell wall. By arranging the circuit board assembly 2 in the installation cavity 13, the curved edges of the circuit board assembly 2 can be adapted to the curved shell wall of the housing 1, and the edges of the circuit board assembly 2 are adjacent to the shell wall. Since the first edge 201 is shaped to fit the inner side of the first shell wall 11 and the first edge 201 of the circuit board assembly 2 abuts against the inner side of the first shell wall 11, the button assembly 4 on the shell wall is adjacent to the circuit board assembly 2, facilitating the connection between the button assembly 4 and the circuit board assembly 2.

[0043] When specifically assembling a behind-the-ear hearing aid and installing the circuit board mounting structure, first install the circuit board assembly 2 on the second shell wall 12, then install the button assembly 4 on the first shell wall 11, and then connect the first shell wall 11 and the second shell wall 12 so that the contact 411 of the button assembly 4 connects to the contact 21 of the circuit board assembly 2.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 , in this embodiment, the housing 1 is provided with an installation hole 111, and the button assembly 4 includes a button base 42 and a button 41. The button base 42 is arranged in the installation hole 111, and the button base 42 is provided with a sliding groove 421. The button 41 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 421, and the button 41 is connected to the circuit board assembly 2.

[0045] Specifically, on the side of the first shell wall 11 facing away from the second shell wall 12, that is, on the side of the shell wall installed on the protrusion, there is an installation hole 111, and the installation hole 111 communicates with the installation cavity 13. The button base 42 is a groove-shaped structure. The button base 42 is in the installation cavity 13 and is connected to the first shell wall 11, so that the installation hole 111 communicates with the sliding groove 421. The button 41 is slidably connected in the sliding groove 421. The bottom of the button base 42 is provided with an opening through which the contact 411 of the button 41 can extend into the installation cavity 13. The contact 411 passes through the opening and connects to the contact 21 of the circuit board assembly 2.

[0046] In this embodiment, the sliding groove 421 defines the stroke of the button 41. After moving a certain distance, the button 41 abuts against the inner wall of the housing 1 or the bottom wall of the button base 42 to prevent the button 41 from falling out of the sliding groove 321.

[0047] When assembling the button assembly 4, first install the button 41 in the sliding groove 421 which plays a role in limiting, and then connect the button seat 42 to the first housing wall 11, then the installation of the button assembly 4 can be completed, which facilitates the docking of the button assembly 4 and the circuit board assembly 2.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 In this embodiment, the button assembly 4 further includes a sealing ring 43. The sealing ring 43 is installed at the sliding groove 421, and the button 41 is connected to the sealing ring 43. The button 41 and the button seat 42 clamp the sealing ring 43, and the elastic potential energy of the sealing ring 43 makes the button 41 keep the tendency of abutting against the housing 1. In this way, both the sealing performance of the button assembly 4 is ensured, so that moisture will not enter the installation cavity 13 from the button assembly 4, and the button 41 has a certain elasticity, improving the touch feeling when the user presses the button 41.

[0049] Refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 In an embodiment provided by the present utility model, the circuit board mounting structure includes a housing 1 and a circuit board assembly 2. One side wall of the housing 1 is curved and is used to fit the outer auricle of a person. The housing 1 is also provided with an installation cavity 13. The circuit board assembly 2 is disposed in the installation cavity 13. One side edge of the circuit board assembly 2 is curved. When the circuit board assembly 2 is installed in the installation cavity 13, the curved edge of the circuit board assembly 2 abuts against the curved side wall.

[0050] Specifically, the housing 1 has a curved structure, so that among the two side walls of the housing 1, one side is a concave curve and the other side is a convex curve. When the user wears the circuit board mounting structure, the concave curved side fits the back of the ear. The inside of the housing 1 is the installation cavity 13. Regarding the back of the ear as a curve, the direction along the arc of the back of the ear is defined as the first direction 101, and the direction perpendicular to the back of the ear is defined as the second direction 102. The structure of the circuit board assembly 2 is also curved, so that the two side edges of the circuit board assembly 2, the second edge 202 is a concave curve and the first edge 201 is a convex curve. The two side curves of the circuit board assembly 2 and the two side walls of the housing 1 are correspondingly abutted, so that the circuit board assembly 2 is embedded in the housing 1 and then installed in the installation cavity 13.

[0051] Furthermore, the housing 1 is divided into a first housing wall 11 and a second housing wall 12. The first housing wall 11 has a protruding curve, and the second housing wall 12 has a concave curve. The first housing wall 11 and the second housing wall 12 enclose to form the installation cavity 13. The circuit board assembly 2 is first installed at the second housing wall 12, and then the first housing wall 11 is installed, so that the first housing wall 11 and the second housing wall 12 clamp and fix the circuit board assembly 2.

[0052] According to this embodiment, a circuit board assembly 2 and a circuit board mounting structure for mounting electronic components are provided. One side of the housing 1 has a curved shell wall, and a part of this shell wall fits against the back of a person's ear, that is, the outer ear. Thus, the entire circuit board mounting structure is in a curved shape, and its interior is an installation cavity 13. One side edge of the circuit board assembly 2 is curved, so that the entire circuit board assembly 2 is also in a curved shape. Regarding the back of the ear as curved, let the arc direction along the back of the ear be the first direction 101, and the direction perpendicular to the first direction 101 be the second direction 102. The curved shell wall of the housing 1 and the curved edge of the circuit board assembly 2 both extend along the first direction 101, and the surface of the circuit board assembly 2 for mounting electronic components is parallel to the second direction 102. It can be understood that such a setting ensures that when electronic components are mounted on the circuit board assembly 2, they will not be affected by the two side surfaces where the circuit board mounting structure fits against or is away from the back of the ear, enabling more flexible design of the circuit board assembly 2 or the mounting positions of electronic components.

[0053] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , in this embodiment, the circuit board assembly 2 includes a mounting base 3 and the circuit board assembly 2.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in, an embodiment of the present application provides a circuit board mounting structure. The circuit board mounting structure includes a housing 1, a button assembly 4 and a sealing assembly. The housing 1 includes a first shell wall 11 and a second shell wall 12. The first shell wall 11 and the second shell wall 12 enclose an installation cavity 13. The first shell wall 11 is provided with an installation hole 111 and a sound receiving hole 112 communicating with the installation cavity 13. The button assembly 4 passes through the installation hole 111. The sealing assembly includes a first sealing member 43, a second sealing member and a waterproof net.
