Abstract

The protective arrangement (1) protects the keys of the hearing aid. Three keys (2,3,4) are visible but not operable. The protective device can be pushed down to allow operation of the keys, the three keys being the ones for the most frequently used functions. When the protective device is pushed down further, two remaining keys (5,6) are visible and operable. The third row of keys (7,8,9) is seldom used, and these keys are differently-shaped to allow easy recognition. ADVANTAGE - Prevents accidental use.

Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Bekannt sind Fernbedienungen für Hörgeräte der Fa. Siemens oder Philips die eine anatomisch mehr oder weniger günstige Form haben. Dadurch wird jedoch keine verwechselungsfreie Betätigung der Tasten und damit der gewünschten Funktion erreicht. Es werden die für Hörgeräte üblichen Parameter wahlfrei verstellbar ohne direkt am Hörgerät eine Betätigung durchführen zu müssen. Dies ist in den meisten Fällen jedoch nicht ausreichend, da eine unsichtbare, d. h. für die den Hörbehinderten umgebenden Personen unsichtbare Betätigung gewünscht wird.Remote controls for hearing aids from Siemens or Philips are known which are anatomically more or have less favorable shape. However, this does not result in confusion-free actuation of the and buttons so that the desired function is achieved. The parameters customary for hearing aids can be freely adjusted without having to operate the hearing aid directly. However, in most cases this is not sufficient because an invisible, i.e. H. invisible to those around the hearing impaired Operation is desired.

Aufgabetask

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde eine unbeabsichtigte Betätigung auszuschließen und zusätzlich eine eindeutige Fühlbarkeit der einzelnen Funktionen sicherzustellen.The invention has for its object to rule out an unintentional actuation and additionally one ensure clear tactility of the individual functions.

Lösungsolution

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die in Anspruch 1 bis 4 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst. Zusätzlich ist ein Schutz der Tasten gegeben und die Fernbedienung gegen unbeabsichtigtes Betätigen geschützt.This object is achieved by the features specified in claims 1 to 4. In addition, protection of the Buttons and the remote control is protected against unintentional operation.

Beschreibungdescription

Die erfindungsgemäße Abdeckung (1) des Tastenfeldes ist in Fig. 1 dargestellt. Sie ist in geschlossenem Zustand gezeichnet. Dabei sind drei Tasten (2, 3, 4) sichtbar aber nicht zu betätigen, da die Abdeckklappe dies im geschlossenen Zustand verhindert.The cover ( 1 ) of the keypad according to the invention is shown in FIG. 1. It is drawn in the closed state. In this case, three buttons ( 2, 3, 4 ) are visible but cannot be pressed, since the cover flap prevents this when closed.

Wird die Klappe (1) in die 1. Raststufe (Fig. 2) geschoben ist die Verriegelung der drei oberen Tasten aufgehoben und eine Bedienung und damit Einstellung des Gerätes ist möglich. Diese drei Tasten repräsentieren die statisch am häufigsten benötigten Funktionen.If the flap ( 1 ) is pushed into the 1st click ( Fig. 2) the three upper buttons are unlocked and the device can be operated and thus adjusted. These three buttons represent the most frequently used functions statically.

Wird die Klappe (1) weiter nach unten geschoben, wird die zweite Reihe Tasten (5, 6), die in Fig. 3 gezeigt sind frei und damit bedienbar.If the flap ( 1 ) is pushed further down, the second row of buttons ( 5, 6 ), which are shown in FIG. 3, becomes free and can thus be operated.

In der dritten Raststufe (Fig. 4) sind die Funktionen (7, 8, 9) die nur selten benötigt werden erreichbar. Zusätzlich sind die Tasten verschieden geformt um eine einwandfreie Erkennung auch in der Jackentasche zu gewährleisten.The functions ( 7, 8, 9 ) which are rarely required can be reached in the third latching stage ( FIG. 4). In addition, the buttons are shaped differently to ensure proper recognition even in the jacket pocket.
