Definitions

  • Hearing aids not only allow hearing-impaired people to communicate with others with ease, but also to improve the perception of their whole environment.
  • Hearing instruments are primarily intended to compensate for the hearing loss suffered by different events or factors and thus to give the affected persons a piece of quality of life back.
  • Modern hearing systems are essentially divided into four categories. So there are in-the-ear hearing systems (IdO hearing systems), which are worn directly in the ear canal. The entire technology of the hearing system is in the ear, so to speak, whereby in-the-ear hearing systems are almost invisible from the outside. Another category concerns the so-called hearing glasses, which are mounted using special adapter on the temple or even integrated in the temple.
  • Behind-the-ear (BTE) hearing systems are behind-the-ear systems. With these devices, the technology is behind the ear. The hearing aid sitting behind the ear is connected to the ear via a small sound tube and an earmold, the so-called earmold, which is specially adapted to the auricle of the affected person.
  • the horn tube has a varying over its length outer diameter of 2.9 mm to 3.7 mm with a constant tube thickness of 0.4 mm.
  • the width of the slot is in a range of 2-7 mm. More preferably, the width of the slot is about 2 mm.
  • the sound received by the BTE hearing aid 40 is first amplified.
  • the sound signals are then transmitted via the handset line 30 to the handset 20 and delivered from this to the eardrum.
  • the earmold 10 together with the earpiece 20 does not change its position during chewing movements as well as speaking, yawning, etc.
  • a hearing aid may u.U. be required to test hearing instruments from different manufacturers. Since the listener of different manufacturers can have different dimensions, and the handset is accurately inserted in the earmold to just just to avoid a shift of the earpiece when wearing the earmold, when changing the handset from a manufacturer to a handset of another manufacturer or when Change to a BTE hearing aid with a sound tube again an otoplasty be made. This is inevitably associated with increased costs.
  • the handset line (the sound tube) 30 is aligned correctly, that is, the handset line (the sound tube) so runs when inserted in the ear canal otoplasty that the proximal end of the earphone line 30 (sound tube) facing away from the earmold 10 comes to rest behind the auricle.
  • the handset line (the sound tube) 30 is then already passed through the preferably provided in the earmold 10 slot 16 and the recess 14 to avoid possible pressure points in the region of the pinna (especially on the tragus) through the handset line (the sound tube) 30 ,
  • an adhesive preferably a superglue, can be introduced.
  • the adhesive is then evenly distributed in the space along the inner surface of the passageway 13. Only then is the protruding part of the horn tube 50 preferably separated with a scalpel.
  • a filter for example, an HF4 filter
  • a filter from the sound-emitting end 11 of the earmold 10 is inserted into the filter sleeve.
  • otoplasty 10 in the through-channel 13, the filter sleeve including filter and receiver 20 with adjoining handset 30 (in the case of BTE hearing aid only filter sleeve including filter and sound tube) are firmly inserted, then with the hearing aid 40th connected, in-that that the earmold 10 remote from the end of the handset line (the sound tube) 30 is connected to the hearing aid 40.
  • the size of the horn tube 50 is preferably selected to provide an interference fit between the earphone 20 (or sound tube) and the horn tube 50 upon insertion of the earpiece (or sound tube) 20 into the horn tube 50. This interference fit is due to the enlarged diameter portion of the horn tube 50 in the region of the end 52 in Fig. 4 indicated.
  • the earmold 10 has a recess 14 and a preferably extending to an outer edge 19 slot 16, which preferably has a width, so that easy passage of the handset line (or the sound tube) 30 through the slot 16 is possible.
  • the width of the slot 16 is approximately equal to the diameter of the listener line (or sonic tube) and is in a range of 2-7 mm.
