Definitions

the present invention relates to a hearing device with a housing, which includes a signal processing device and having a sound outlet, wherein at the sound outlet of the housing, a carrying hook for attaching the hearing device to an ear or head is fastened such that emerging from the sound outlet sound through the support hook is directed.
a hearing device is understood to mean any sound-emitting device which can be worn in or on the ear or on the head, in particular a hearing aid, a headset, headphones and the like.
Hearing aids are portable hearing aids that are used to care for the hearing impaired.
different types of hearing aids such as behind-the-ear hearing aids (BTE), hearing aid with external receiver (RIC: receiver in the canal) and in-the-ear hearing aids (IDO), e.g. Concha hearing aids or canal hearing aids (ITE, CIC).
BTE behind-the-ear hearing aids
RIC hearing aid with external receiver
IDO in-the-ear hearing aids
ITE canal hearing aids
the hearing aids listed by way of example are worn on the outer ear or in the ear canal.
bone conduction hearing aids, implantable or vibrotactile hearing aids are also available on the market. The stimulation of the damaged hearing takes place either mechanically or electrically.
Hearing aids have in principle as essential components an input transducer, an amplifier and an output transducer.
the input transducer is usually a sound receiver, z. As a microphone, and / or an electromagnetic receiver, for. B. an induction coil.
the output transducer is usually used as an electroacoustic transducer, z. As miniature speaker, or as an electromechanical transducer, z. B. bone conduction, realized.
the amplifier is usually integrated in a signal processing unit. This basic structure is in FIG. 1 using the example of a behind-the-ear hearing aid shown. In a hearing aid housing 1 for carrying behind the ear, one or more microphones 2 for receiving the sound from the environment are installed.
a signal processing unit 3 which is also integrated in the hearing aid housing 1, processes the microphone signals and amplifies them.
the output signal of the signal processing unit 3 is transmitted to a loudspeaker or earpiece 4, which outputs an acoustic signal.
the sound is optionally transmitted via a sound tube, which is fixed with an earmold in the ear canal, to the eardrum of the device carrier.
the power supply of the hearing device and in particular the signal processing unit 3 is effected by a likewise integrated into the hearing aid housing 1 battery. 5
a carrying hook is usually attached to the hearing aid housing, which serves to hang the hearing aid on an auricle. Through the carrying hook sound, which is produced in the hearing aid housing, passed through to a sound tube, which leads the amplified sound to the ear canal.
the sound tube In a hearing aid type, the sound tube is placed on the carrying hook at the free end of the carrying hook. The sound tube therefore has a correspondingly large diameter.
a very thin sound tube is used, which can hardly be put on a carrying hook, and therefore are firmly installed in a small carrying hook. Such small carrying hooks and thin sound tubes are optically less conspicuous, which is why they are preferred by many users.
the transmission of sound from the hearing aid housing or loudspeaker to the auditory canal depends essentially on the sound tube and wearing hook used. Therefore, when adjusting the hearing aid to adjust the sound gain depending on the used sound tube or carrying hook. Consequently, before using the hearing aid, the hearing aid wearer must definitely indicate to the acoustician which type of wearing hook or sound tube he will use. A later change of the carrying hook or sound tube makes a completely new adaptation necessary.
a microphone arrangement for hearing aids which can be switched into a directional and in an omnidirectional mode.
the microphone assembly has a front and rear sound inlet for this purpose.
the microphone assembly has a switch which is movable for directional operation between a first position in which the rear sound inlet is closed for omnidirectional operation and a second position in which the rear sound inlet is unlocked.
a circuit detects the position of the switch and selects a microphone output based on the detected position.
the object of the present invention is to simplify the fitting of a hearing aid, in particular with regard to the choice of the type of a carrying hook.
a hearing device with a housing which contains a signal processing device and which has a sound outlet, wherein a carrying hook for attaching the hearing device to an ear or head can be fastened to the sound outlet of the housing such that sound emerging from the sound outlet the carrying hook is guided, and wherein a sensor for detecting the type of the carrying hook is arranged in or on the housing, and the sensor controls the signal processing device in dependence on the detected type of the carrying hook.
the hearing device automatically detects the type of carrying hook or a carrying hook sound tube combination and configures the signal processing accordingly.
the hearing with a certain Carrying hook is fitted, once adjusted individually, because it automatically adjusts to the new wearing hook type or sound tube after replacing the carrying hook acoustically.
the senor may be a distance sensor to detect a distance between a support hook and the housing. If the type of the carrying hook is thus coded by the distance between the housing and the carrying hook, the type of carrying hook can be determined via the distance sensor.
the senor may be a pressure sensor to detect a pressure exerted by a support hook on a surface of the pressure sensor. This makes it possible to differentiate types of wearing hooks, for example, in that they have pressure surfaces whose distance from the housing varies in a manner similar to that of the aforementioned distance sensor. At a smaller distance is then generated for example by a spring more pressure than at a greater distance.
the senor may be a magnetic sensor which responds to a magnetic or magnetizable element in a carrying hook.
a magnetic sensor usually proves to be very robust and durable.
a gain of the signal processing device is controllable with the sensor.
the output signal of the hearing device can be acoustically adjusted exactly to the carrying hook or the sound tube attached thereto.
the hearing device can be designed as a BTE hearing aid.
a hearing aid wearer even after adjusting easily the ability to change its carrying hook, and the hearing aid automatically detects the new type of carrying hook and adjusts the signal processing accordingly.
a hearing system with a hearing device as described above as well as a first carrying hook of a first type and a second carrying hook of a second type can be provided on the whole.
the first carrying hook cooperates with the sensor, while the second carrying hook does not.
the sensor merely has to decide binary, whether a first or second type of carrying hook is attached to the hearing device.
the first carrying hook is a carrying hook onto which a sound tube can be plugged
the second carrying hook is a carrying hook into which a sound tube is firmly inserted, wherein the sound tube of the second carrying hook is significantly smaller in diameter than that of the first wearing hook. This allows the hearing aid to automatically separate carrier hooks with sonic tubes of different diameters.
FIG. 2 BTE hearing aid shown has a housing 10 to which a carrying hook 11 is attached.
the sound which is generated by the signal processing device within the hearing aid housing 10, forwarded to the outside.
a sound tube would beberichtstecken on the conical end of the carrying hook. This sound tube must have a correspondingly large inner diameter, so that the pointed end of the carrying hook can be inserted into the sound tube.
the support hook 11 is typically attached to a fitting (in FIG. 2 not visible), which conducts the sound from the hearing aid housing 10 and thus serves as a sound outlet of the housing.
a sensor 13 On the front side of the housing 10, to which the carrying hook 11 is fastened, there is a sensor 13. In the present case, this is a pressure sensor with a push button. An outer surface of the carrying hook 11, which is directed in the mounted on the housing 10 state of the carrying hook 11 to the front side of the housing 10, presses against this push button or piston of the pressure sensor 13. The pressure sensor registers the pressing of the piston.
This sensor information is interpreted for the signal processing of the hearing device to the effect that a conventional support hook 11 is applied with attachable sound tube to the hearing aid housing 10.
the signal processing device thereby switches into a first processing profile, with which the A-kustik of the concrete carrying hook and sound tube is taken into account.
the gain is optionally adapted to the specific channel of the hearing aid (wearing hook with sound tube).
FIG. 3 In FIG. 3 is to the hearing aid housing 10 against the carrying hook 11 very small carrying hook 14 infected with a thin sound tube 15. At the free end of the sound tube 15 is an adapter 16 for connecting an ear piece, which is intended to fix the sound tube in the ear canal.
the ear piece itself is in FIG. 3 not shown.
the sound tube 15 has a relatively small outside diameter (smaller than the tip of the carrying hook 11 from FIG. 2 ) and is here firmly inserted into the small carrying hook 14, glued or poured. Because of its small inner diameter, it can not be plugged onto the large carrying hook 11.
This small carrying hook / tube combination 14, 15 is preferred by many hearing aid users because of the optically low conspicuousness.
FIG. 3 It can be seen that the small carrying hook 14 does not touch the pressure sensor and in particular its push button or piston. There is thus no pressure exerted on the pressure sensor 13, so that a corresponding sensor signal is used by the signal processing device that a matched for the support hook-hose combination 14, 15 gain (second processing profile) is performed in the hearing aid. Based on the sensor signal, the hearing aid signal processing can thus automatically distinguish which sound output signal is to be generated in order to achieve optimum acoustic matching.
the various wearing hooks must be coded accordingly.
the distance of the pressure surface of the support hook to the end face of the hearing aid housing can be used for the coding.
a third type of wearing hook could be characterized in that the pressure surface of the carrying hook directly touches the front side of the hearing aid housing 10 when the carrying hook is attached to the hearing aid housing. The piston or push button of the pressure sensor 13 would then be completely depressed. The pressure sensor would then have to be able to distinguish the fully depressed state from the half depressed state and the uninjected state.
the sensor for detecting the carrying hook or the carrying hook-hose combination can also be based on other physical principles than on the pressure. For example, a magnetic, an electrical, an optical or other type of sensor can be used. The coding of the Tragehakentyps can then be done in a corresponding manner. Also, these sensors may be designed to distinguish more than two types of tethers.
the hearing aid manufacturer thus obtains the advantage that he can pre-set a hearing aid without knowing which wearing hook type the hearing aid wearer will use.
the hearing aid wearer can subsequently also select, for example, between a conventional carrying hook and a carrying hook with reduced size and the hearing aid then automatically changes the signal processing depending on the attached carrying hook. Not only can the gain be changed automatically, but also, for example, feedback reduction algorithms and other functions.
