Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of hearing aids, in particular to an in-ear hearing aid. Background Art
[0002] In-ear hearing aids are customized according to individual ear shape and special needs. They receive sound waves through a sound-collecting microphone, convert them into electrical signals, and then send them to an amplifier for processing. The amplifier extracts the useful electrical signals, amplifies them, and suppresses useless noise signals. Finally, the output transducer converts the electrical energy into an acoustic signal for output. They are suitable for people with hearing loss.
[0003] For example, the Chinese patent with announcement number CN114666718A (an in-ear bone conduction hearing aid) includes a hearing aid body and a bone conduction speaker; wherein the bone conduction speaker is arranged in the hearing aid body, and the interior of the hearing aid body is divided into a front cavity and a rear cavity; the rear cavity is provided with a circuit component and a battery, wherein the circuit component is electrically connected to the battery; and an in-ear sound outlet is provided at the end outside the front cavity. The in-ear bone conduction hearing aid of this application combines the advantages of air conduction hearing aids in reducing noise interference and the advantages of bone conduction hearing aids in enhancing wearing comfort. Its bone conduction speaker can enhance the resonance of the cochlear nerve through the driving device vibration plate and shrapnel, and has a good low-frequency dive. In addition, the mid- and high-frequency sound waves radiated by the diaphragm itself pass through the sound outlet of the cavity, making the sound propagation more concentrated and more directional, thereby improving the sound propagation efficiency.
[0004] However, the part of the existing in-ear hearing aid that contacts the surface of the ear canal end is hard and easily causes abrasion to the skin. It is uncomfortable to wear for a long time and is easy to vibrate and fall off during exercise, resulting in poor stability. When removing the hearing aid, people need to buckle it along the hearing aid. The hearing aid is small and easily buckles against the skin and is also easy to fall off, making it inconvenient to take it out. Therefore, it does not meet the existing needs. In response to this, we have proposed an in-ear hearing aid. Utility Model Content
