[0034] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a hearing aid comprising: a top cover 1, wherein the top of the top cover 1 is provided with a pressing port 11;

[0035] The lower cover 2 and the upper cover 1 cover the lower cover 2, and the upper cover 1 and the lower cover 2 enclose the installation space 21.

[0036] The bracket 3 is installed in the installation space 21 and connected to the lower cover 2. The bracket 3 includes a straight part 31, an arc part 32, an oblique part 33 and a receiving space 34. One end of the arc part 32 is connected to one end of the straight part 31, and the two ends of the oblique part 33 are respectively connected to the other end of the straight part 31 and the other end of the arc part 32. The straight part 31, the arc part 32 and the oblique part 33 enclose the receiving space 34. The chip part 52 is housed in the receiving space 34 and connected to the bracket 3.

[0037] Battery 4 has an arc-shaped outer edge. Battery 4 is installed in the installation space 21 and connected to the arc-shaped part 32.

[0038] Circuit board 5 is electrically connected to battery 4. Circuit board 5 includes chip part 52 and main body 51. Chip part 52 is fixedly connected to one side of main body 51. Circuit board 5 is installed in installation space 21 and connected to bracket 3 and the outer periphery of battery 4.

[0039] The receiver unit 6 is electrically connected to the circuit board 5 and the battery 4. The receiver unit 6 is detachably connected to the lower cover 2, and one end of the receiver unit 6 is housed within the mounting space 21; and

[0040] Button 7 is slidably mounted on the upper cover 1 and can be sealed to the press port 11. Button 7 can move into the press port 11 and contact the circuit board 5.

[0041] Based on the above solution, a compact and small appearance is achieved by connecting the circuit board 5 to the outer periphery of the bracket 3 and the battery 4, allowing users to enjoy clear hearing without worrying about privacy exposure from wearing hearing aids. The upper cover 1 and the lower cover 2 cooperate to form a closed installation space 21, making the hearing aid smaller and easier to wear.

[0042] The outer edge of the battery 4 is arc-shaped with an arc portion 32, which makes the battery 4 more securely connected to the arc portion 32 of the bracket 3. This effectively utilizes the installation space 21 of the hearing aid, reduces unnecessary gaps, improves space utilization, and makes the battery 4 and the bracket 3 more compact, thereby improving the overall design compactness of the hearing aid.

[0043] The bracket 3 includes a straight section 31, an arc section 32, and an oblique section 33. The straight section 31, the arc section 32, and the oblique section 33 form a triangular structure, which makes the entire bracket 3 more stable and supportive. The main body 51 of the circuit board 5 is attached to the straight section 31, the arc section 32, the battery 4, and the oblique section 33 in sequence. The triangular structure of the bracket 3 can also accommodate circuit boards 5 that are longer.

[0044] The design of fixing the chip unit 52 to one side of the main body 51 on the circuit board 5 helps reduce mutual interference between components within the circuit board 5. By arranging the chip unit 52 on one side of the main body 51 and maintaining an appropriate distance from other circuit components, unnecessary electromagnetic interference and signal noise are avoided, thereby improving the signal transmission quality and overall performance of the circuit board 5.

[0045] By providing a receiving space 34 within the bracket 3 and housing the chip unit 52 within this space, the chip unit 52 can be effectively protected from direct impact or damage from the external environment. The receiving space 34 formed by the bracket 3 rationally positions the chip unit 52, making full use of the internal space of the bracket 3. The connection between the chip unit 52 and the bracket 3 not only improves the internal space utilization of the hearing aid but also ensures the coordinated operation of the circuit board 5, making it more compact and stable, and avoiding mutual interference between the chip unit 52 and the main body 51.

[0046] The bracket 3 is securely connected to the battery 4, and the circuit board 5 is reliably connected to the outer periphery of the bracket 3 and the battery 4. This significantly reduces the risk of the circuit board 5 becoming loose during use, thereby effectively ensuring the product's lifespan and stability, reducing the probability of failure caused by loose components, and providing users with a durable and reliable user experience.

[0047] Preferably, the hearing aid also includes double-sided adhesive tape, and the circuit board 5 is attached to the battery 4 and / or the bracket 3 by means of double-sided adhesive tape.

[0048] Based on the above solution, double-sided adhesive tape connects the circuit board 5 to the battery 4 and / or the bracket 3, simplifying the traditional mechanical fixing or soldering process. Double-sided adhesive tape can quickly and easily and firmly attach the circuit board 5 to the battery 4 and the bracket 3, reducing assembly time, improving production efficiency, and lowering manufacturing costs.

[0049] Preferably, the oblique portion 33 is further provided with a mounting groove 35 on the side away from the accommodating space 34, and the circuit board 5 is accommodated in the mounting groove 35 and connected to the bracket 3.

[0050] Based on the above solution, by providing a mounting groove 35 in the inclined portion 33 of the bracket 3, the circuit board 5 can be directly accommodated and fixed within the mounting groove 35, simplifying the installation process of the circuit board 5 and improving assembly efficiency. The circuit board 5 is connected to the bracket 3 via the mounting groove 35, effectively preventing displacement or damage to the circuit board 5 due to vibration or external impact during use. The mounting groove 35 securely fixes the circuit board 5 to the bracket 3, reducing unnecessary mechanical stress and improving the shock resistance of the circuit board 5, making it particularly suitable for hearing aids worn for extended periods and used while mobile, thus enhancing the product's reliability and stability.

[0051] Preferably, the hearing aid further includes a charging unit 8, which is connected to the main body 51 and electrically connected to the battery 4. The lower cover 2 has a charging port that is connected to the installation space 21, and the charging unit 8 passes through the charging port.

[0052] Based on the above solution, the charging unit 8 is electrically connected to the battery 4 and communicates with the installation space 21 through the charging port, allowing the hearing aid to be conveniently charged.
