16 results about "Earmold" patented technology

An earmold (also spelled; ear mold, ear mould or earmould) is a device worn inserted into the ear for sound conduction or ear protection. Earmolds are anatomically shaped and can be produced in different sizes for general use or specially cast from particular ear forms. Some users specify how hard or soft they want their mould to be, an audiologist can also suggest this. As a conductor, it improves sound transmission to eardrums. This is an essential feature to diminish feedback paths in hearing aids and assure better intelligibility in noisy-environment communication. The main goal in wearing earmolds is to attain better user comfort and efficiency. Earmolds (and their tubes) often turn yellow and stiff with age, and thus need replacement on a regular basis. Traditionally, the job of making earmoulds is very time-consuming and skillful; each one is made individually in a moulding process. However, new digital ear laser scanners can accelerate this process.

Method for generating hearing aid earmolds based on acoustic and physical models of the ear canal

Acoustic models accurately predict ear-canal acoustics in children using standard clinical immittance measures to improve the accuracy of hearing aid fitting when measurements cannot be made in the child’s ear canal. Physical models of ear canal geometry have been associated to indirect acoustic estimates, which makes is possible to develop models that can predict physical and acoustic characteristics of the ear canal. Such a model predicts ear-canal geometry and acoustics to product earmolds without the need for ear impressions or repeated verification. The combination of predicting ear canal geometry and acoustics improves the quality of hearing aid fitting in children, positively impacts developmental outcomes, and reduces the burden for children and their families. This is especially seen in rural areas, developing countries, and other areas where the ratio of patients to care provides is reduced.
