Definitions

the electrical connection component may be based, for example, on a frictional contact, for example using a spring, and be realized, for example, as a pogo pin (a pin contact instructed by a spring force). For example, it may contact the inner frame of the hearing aid or an electrical connector component connected to the inner frame.
the mechanical connection component engages in the outer housing of the hearing instrument. It comprises a lock which serves to lock a connection made by a connector. The locking can be realized for example in the form of a snap closure or with an axis or pin. Sealants can also be integrated or provided in the mechanical connection component.
