Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hearing aid with an operating device, wherein a first and a second operating function of the hearing aid can be activated via an operating element of the operating device. It is provided to suppress the execution of the first operating function, if the second operating function is activated via the operating element. Furthermore, the invention relates to a corresponding method for operating a hearing aid.
  • Modern hearing aids have a variety of different settings, such. B. those for electrical or acoustic parameters. While certain parameters of a hearing aid are set, for example, by an acoustician during a programming session, other settings during operation of the hearing aid can be made independently by the hearing aid wearer. Among the latter settings include z. As the volume setting, the change between different hearing programs or operating modes or switching on and off of the hearing aid. Such adjustments are typically made via controls that are typically located well accessible on the outside of the device. With such controls different degrees of freedom of the control can be exploited. Thus, in an appropriately designed control element in addition to the simple operation of a push-button or z. B. also use a variety of turning, tilting, rocking or sliding movements to activate the device functions.
  • Such controls then include, for example, two different input devices, such as a mechanical push button and a rotary switch. Also other combinations of input devices, such as e.g. a pressure switch and a toggle or rocker switch or a pressure switch or pushbutton switch and a slide switch, can be realized in a control element.
  • operating functions can also be clearly recognized due to the duration of the manual input and thus distinguished from each other. So can be z.
  • various operating functions differ from each other as long as the push-button is operated manually.
  • a hearing device has an operating device, which comprises an operating element for activating a first and a second operating function of the hearing device.
  • the operating device is designed to perform an operating function of the hearing aid due to or as a result of activation of the corresponding operating function via the operating element.
  • the operating device is designed to prevent the execution of the first operating function due to or as a result of the activation of the first operating function via the operating element, provided that the second operating function is activated via the operating element.
  • the activation of the first operating function via the control element thus does not directly lead to an execution of this operating function in the hearing aid. Rather, the execution of the first operating function is controlled depending on whether the second operating function has been activated via the common operating element.
  • this can effectively prevent inadvertent execution of the first operating function in an intended activation of the second operating function.
  • the operating device deletes a first activation signal, which is generated when the first operating function is activated, if the second operating function is activated via the operating element. Deleting the first activation signal resets the activation of the first operating function. Thus, the execution of this operating function can be effectively prevented.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that a control device is provided with a logic circuit, wherein the logic circuit serves as input variables the first activation signal generated by the activation of the first operating function and a second activation signal generated by the activation of the second operating function. It is provided that the logic circuit executes the corresponding operating function in the presence of an activation signal, wherein the logic circuit resets the first activation signal, provided that the second activation signal is present at its input.
  • the logic circuitry makes it particularly easy to control the operating functions.
  • a designed as an electrical circuit logic circuit can be realized particularly easily and inexpensively by logic gates.
  • a mechanical control device in which the execution of the first operating function can be blocked by the activation of the second operating function.
  • the operating element comprises a push-button or push-button switch, the activation of the first operating function being effected by actuating this switch. It is advantageous if the first operating function is activated only when you release the key switch. In this case, the time between unintentional pressing and releasing the push-button switch can be used for checking whether the second operating function has been activated. If this is the case, the first operating function is not executed. Already using this simple method, unintentional operator actions can be effectively avoided.
  • activating the second operating function is done by pressing a rotary or toggle switch comprehensive control.
  • a rotary or toggle switch comprehensive control Just by combining such a switch with a push-button switch, multifunctional operating elements can be realized in a particularly small space.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the invention provides that the operating device executes the first operating function delayed after activation of the first operating function via the operating element. This delay makes it possible to detect such activations of the second operating function via the operating element, which are only after the activation of the first operating function.
  • the z. B. may be formed as an ITE hearing aid.
  • an electrical signal provided by an input microphone 140 is processed by a signal processor 141 in accordance with a specification.
  • an output converter 142 is driven via an output stage, which generates a corresponding sound signal in the auditory canal of the hearing device wearer.
  • the components 140, 141, 142 of the signal processing path are shown by way of example only, with not all components shown.
  • a typical hearing aid 100 has various settings, the z. B. concern the signal processing or the operation of the device as such. Depending on the application, certain parameters may already be preset during manufacture or a subsequent configuration. Other settings, such as As the selection of the operating mode, can also be made independently by the hearing aid wearer.
  • the various setting options are implemented as operating functions in the hearing device 100, which are called via an operating device 110 of the hearing aid 100.
  • the operating device 110 has at least one operating element 111 that is accessible to the hearing aid wearer, via which an operating function can be selected or activated.
  • the operating element 111 is designed as a multifunctional operating element, via which at least two different operating functions can be activated independently of one another.
  • the operating element 111 can be designed as a mechanical operating element. As a rule, such an operating element must be mechanically actuated in a manner predetermined by its design in order to activate a specific operating function. In order to clearly determine the input or activation of an operating function via the operating element, the various operating functions of the respective operating element are generally associated with different movement sequences. Thus, in a hearing aid frequently the two operating functions volume adjustment (volume control, VC) and program change (push button, PB) can be activated via a common control element 111, wherein the change of programs or operating modes z. B. can be selected via a push-button and the volume control via a rotary switch. The switches are combined in the common control element 111.
  • volume control volume control
  • PB program change
  • switch combinations such as a touch or push switch and a tilt, rocker or slide switch can also be used.
  • a touch or push switch and a tilt, rocker or slide switch can also be used.
  • such have multifunctional controls and non-mechanical input devices in which the activation of the respective operating function z. B. takes place only by touching a correspondingly sensitive surface or by approaching such a surface.
  • the operating device 110 also includes a control device 130.
  • the control device 130 controls the execution of the operating functions which are activated via the common operating element 111
  • the control device 130 as in the present case, a logic circuit 131 include.
  • the activation signals S PB , S vc can receive the logic circuit 131 via corresponding signal lines from the operating element 110.
  • the logic circuit 131 or the control device 130 controls the execution of the respective operating function PB, VC by means of a corresponding control signal.
  • the logic circuit 131 can output the control signal to the component in which the corresponding operating function is executed.
  • the logic circuit 131 is connected to the signal processing device 141 via a signal line.
  • Both the logic circuit 131 and the controller 130 may be formed as integrated circuits. In such a case, the logic circuit 131 or the entire control device 130 may be accommodated together with the signal processing device 141 or with parts thereof on a chip.
  • control device 130 shown here is preferably implemented electronically, it is basically also possible to control the activation via the operating element 111 Operating functions PB, VC mechanically realized.
  • the connecting arrows between the components 110, 131, 141 would constitute mechanical active connections.
  • the execution of the first operating function PB could then be prevented by a mechanical blocking of the corresponding operative connection.
  • control element 111 will be described in more detail, which is particularly well suited for use in an ITE hearing aid because of its small footprint.
  • FIG. 2 shows by way of example such a multifunctional operating element 111 in a cross-sectional representation.
  • the control element 111 in this case comprises a push-button switch 112 and a rotary switch 113. Both switches 112, 113 are actuated by means of a common actuating button 114.
  • the key switch 112 consists essentially of a first and a second contact element 117, 119, wherein a contact arm 118 connected to the first contact element 117 is arranged resiliently over the second contact element 119.
  • the closing of the key switch 112 is carried out by the operating button 114 is pressed against the spring force of the spring element 116 downward. With its tip, a switching pin 115 connected to the actuating button 114 then presses the contact arm 118 against the second contact 119 in such a way that a circuit is closed via the push-button switch 112.
  • the actuating button 114 is released, it is raised again by the spring element 116, so that the contact arm 118 swings upward again.
  • the switching contact is interrupted and the key switch 112 is opened again.
  • a reverse switching behavior in which the switching contact when depressing the actuating button 114 is opened and closed when you release the actuator button 114 is possible in principle.
  • the push-button function PB of the hearing aid 100 is activated only when the actuation button 114 is released.
  • the corresponding activation signal S PB is therefore generated in the negative example in the present example, ie only when the key switch 112 is opened.
  • the second operating function of the hearing aid 100 is activated in the present case by means of the rotary switch 113 of the operating element 111.
  • the rotary switch 113 has a one or more rotationally symmetrical about the switching pin 115 disposed contact pads 121.
  • a sleeve-shaped element 120 which is arranged within a sleeve-shaped housing 124 of the actuating element 110, serves as a rotor. The rotor 120 is thereby rotated by the switching pin 115.
  • the current switching state can be z. B. by current or voltage measurement via corresponding contacts 122, 123 are determined. It determines the current volume setting of the hearing aid 100.
  • the execution of the first operating function PB (change of operating mode or program) already takes place in case of accidental depression of the operating button 114, before the actual intended rotation of the actuating button 114 and the associated activation of the second operating function VC was detected takes place the execution of the first operating function PB preferably not directly by the activation of this operating function on the control element 111. Rather, a certain delay between the activation and the execution of the first operating function PB is provided. If the hearing device 100 or its control device 130 detects in this time that the second operating function VC has been activated by a corresponding actuation of the operating element 111, the execution of the first operating function PB is suppressed.
  • the activation of the second operating function VC can also be used for deleting the first activation signal S PB or more generally for resetting the activation state of the first operating function PB. Also in this case, only the second activated operating function VC is executed.
  • a delay in that in the FIG. 2 The operating element shown can be achieved, for example, by the fact that the first operating function PB is not activated, as usual, when the push-button 112 is depressed, but only in the negative pulse, that is to say when the push-button 112 is released. This can be achieved relatively easily by an appropriate electronics, which triggers only on the signal edge generated when you release the key switch. Since the time between the depression and the release of the key switch 112 depends strongly on the individual user behavior of the user, additional measures can be provided to obtain a necessary for a fault-free detection of the operation intention delay time.
  • the operating device 110 may be designed such that the first operating function PB is not executed immediately after the activation of the corresponding operating function PB already delayed by triggering on the negative pulse, but only after a preferably predeterminable time has elapsed after the key switch 112 has been released ,
  • a further, defined delay between activating and executing the first operating function PB can also be implemented electronically in this case.
  • a logic circuit 131 which controls the execution of the operating functions PB, VC is explained by means of a table.
  • Such a logic circuit can, for example, in the in the in the FIG. 2 implemented operating device 110 may be implemented. It shows the first column of the table, the activation state of the first operating function (here program change PB), which is activated by pressing or releasing the push-button. In the second column, however, the activation state of the second operating function (here volume control VC) is shown, which is activated by the rotation of the operating knob 114 of the control element 111.
  • the activated state of an operating function is represented by a plus (+) and the non-active or deactivated state of the corresponding operating function by a minus (-).
  • S PB corresponding activation signal
  • S VC is generated by activating an operating function PB, VC
  • the plus (+) and the minus (-) in the table represents the presence or absence of the respective activation signal at the corresponding input of the logic circuit 131 is.
  • the third column shows which control or control function the logic circuit 131 outputs in response to the activation signals applied to its input.
