Abstract

Bei der Verwendung von externen Hörern bei Hörvorrichtungen, insbesondere bei Hörgeräten, sollen Rückkopplungen weiter unterdrückt werden. Daher wird ein Ohrpassstück (10) mit einem Hörer (11) vorgeschlagen, der am Schallauslass einen Hörerstutzen einschließlich eines ersten Schnappelements aufweist. Ein Adapter (12) ist direkt in das Ohrpassstück (10) eingesetzt und weist ein zweites Schnappelement auf, welches in das erste Schnappelement lösbar eingeschnappt ist. Eine Dichtung (13), die den Hörerstutzen vollumfänglich umgibt, besteht aus einem elastischeren Material als der Hörerstutzen und der Adapter (12) und ist zwischen den Hörerstutzen und den Adapter (12) eingepresst. Dadurch kann der Hörer (11) akustisch dicht in dem Ohrpassstück (10) befestigt werden, so dass es zu weniger Rückkopplungen kommt. Die Dichtung sorgt aber auch dafür, dass weniger Verschmutzungen zu dem Hörer (11) gelangen.
