Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hearing device, in particular a hearing aid, having a program switch for switching to a plurality of hearing programs and a programming socket for connecting the hearing device to a programming device.
  • Numerous hearing aids are equipped with the option of selecting different hearing programs. For this you have a button with which you can switch to the individual programs by pressing a button.
  • modern hearing aids usually have a programming interface, via which an individual programming is possible.
  • This programming interface is usually implemented as a programming socket or programming contact.
  • the button for program selection usually requires a separate control element, since it is usually designed very small.
  • a plastic button is often used, which presses on a membrane switch.
  • the button also provides a cover and a protection for the membrane switch.
  • Another cover is usually provided for the programming socket. This serves to keep the electrical contacts of the programming socket free of dirt.
  • a behind-the-ear hearing device which has a covering device for the programming socket and a push-button.
  • the covering device is designed as a pivotable flap and additionally has a holder with a recess for a control element.
  • the object of the present invention is to simplify the construction of a hearing device or a hearing device.
  • a hearing device in particular a hearing aid, having a program switch for switching to a plurality of hearing programs and a programming socket for connecting the hearing device to a programming device, as well as a covering device, which is designed in one piece and covers both the program switch and the programming socket, wherein the cover means comprises a locking element, with which it is kept detachable in the covering state on the program switch and the programming socket, and wherein the cover device is slightly movable in the covering state, so that by the movement of the program switch can be actuated.
  • a plastic part can be saved by the inventive solution, since the cover has a multiple functionality. For one thing, it covers both the program switch and the programming jack, and on the other hand, it also serves to operate the program switch. As a result, less production of an injection molding tool is required for hearing aid production, and less part must be handled in manufacturing and service.
  • the covering device is pivotally mounted on the housing of the hearing device.
  • Such storage is easy to implement and assemble.
  • the covering device has a tactile section at the distal end, ie the free end, with respect to the rotational axis, and the program switch lies between the axis of rotation in the covering state and the tactile section so that a pressure on the tactile section enhances pressure on the program switch by leveraging. In this way, the ease of use of the hearing aid can be increased.
  • the covering device can be mounted to be slidable on the housing of the hearing device, so that the program switch can be actuated by a sliding movement of the covering device.
  • a slider may have the advantage over a flap that the risk of damaging or losing it when the programming socket is covered is lower.
  • the locking element is conveniently a snap element. This can be realized in a very simple manner a releasable Verrieglung.
  • the program switch can be realized by a membrane switch.
  • a membrane switch is a low-cost standard component.
  • the reproduced in Figure 1 behind-the-ear hearing aid has on the surface of the hearing aid shell 1 a cover 2, which also serves as an operating element for an underlying switch.
  • FIG 2 the cover 2 is shown enlarged and the hearing aid shell 1 cut.
  • the cover 2 is pivotally mounted on a pivot bearing 3.
  • a membrane switch 4 which serves as a program switch. It is connected via cable 5 with a signal processing, not shown, of the hearing aid.
  • a programming socket 6 with which the hearing aid can be programmed individually.
  • the covering device 2 is integrally formed here as an injection molded part. It has the pivot bearing portion 3 and at its free end on a raised operating section 7 with grooves 8 to increase the grip. Under the raised operating section 7, which is bell-shaped, the programming socket 6 is accommodated in the covering state of the covering device shown in FIG. Further, located between the pivot bearing portion 3 and the operating section 7, a cover 9. Under this cover section 9 of the membrane switch 4 is arranged.
  • a molded hook 10 engages in the covering state of the cover 2 shown in FIG 2 under a shoulder 11 of the hearing aid shell 1.
  • the hook 10 is as Snap element is formed and locks the cover 2 in the AbdeckPark. For example, the hook 10 can be pushed back by a small screwdriver, so that the cover 2 can be swung open.
  • the cover device 2 can be pivoted about the pivot bearing 3 by at least 90 degrees. This results in the reproduced in FIG 3 position.
  • a programming plug can be plugged into the programming socket 6.
  • the cover 2 is pressed again in the covering state, wherein the hook 10 snaps under the shoulder 11.
  • a nose 12 can be seen on the underside of the cover section 9 of the covering device 2, which is arranged directly above the membrane button 4 in the covering state, but does not touch it or only very weakly.
  • the covering device 2 can now be moved somewhat downwards in the direction of the membrane switch 4.
  • the nose 12 presses on the bottom of the cover 2 on the membrane switch 4.
  • the compressive force on the membrane switch 4 is reinforced by the leverage. In the present case, the pressure force on the membrane switch 4 is about twice as high as the force exerted on the operating section 7.
