Definitions
- the present invention relates to a hearing aid according to the Preamble of claim 1.
- Hearing aids have a sound entry opening for recording of ambient sounds and a sound outlet opening for Delivery of the ambient sounds processed in the hearing aid. It is of the utmost importance that the Surrounding sounds in no way disturbing noises are superimposed, which subsequently like ambient sounds be treated. Annoying noises can The reason for this is that air currents on edges on or tear off near the hearing aid (demolition problem) or that air currents with different Speeds and / or directions in the area immediately in front of the microphone membrane cause this is moved (gradient problem). These two The causes mentioned can also occur in combination.
- a cover element is described in US Pat. No. 4,073,366 glued over the sound inlet opening of a hearing aid becomes.
- the known cover element consists of several Layers that are glued together at the edges and that consist of porous materials, which are prevented is said to be on the edges of the inlet opening as a result of interfering noises occur when air currents break off.
- EP-0 310 866 discloses that the Sound outlet opening to prevent the entry of Ear wax (cerumen) in the hearing aid with a Cover element, using a microporous material is proposed.
- the Sound entry opening then covered with a cover element should be, provided it is an in-the-ear hearing aid (ITE hearing aid) acts, because obviously only exists then there is a risk of ear wax getting into the hearing aid arrives when it is placed in the ear. Measures for Reduction of annoying noises are from this Document cannot be removed. It is alone here to avoid pollution of hearing aids.
- the present invention is therefore based on the object based on specifying a hearing aid in which the Noise is reduced.
- the invention has the following advantages: Integration of at least one cover element in the hearing aid itself and the surface arrangement of the Cover element in the hearing aid housing edges are avoided, which are otherwise a source of noise, with which the Demolition problem is taken into account. At the same time but also the gradient problem is taken into account, by the cover element made of a porous, preferably is made of an open porous material and a certain Has thickness.
- material for the Cover elements an open-pored polyethylene is particularly suitable.
- the properties of the material can on the one hand due to the filter fineness, the minimum particle size of the filtered particles, and on the other hand through the open porosity, which is the relationship between Pore opening and remaining area corresponds to, characterized will.
- the filter fineness is also around d50 values given, with the specified d50 value 50% of the particles pass the filter and retain 50% of the particles will. It has been found that the d50 values for the filter fineness between 10 ⁇ m and 200 ⁇ m and the Open porosity is between 70 and almost 100%.
- Fig. 1 shows a longitudinal section through a Hearing aid according to the invention consisting of a Reinforcing element VE and a hook element HE.
- the Hook element HE is detachable with the Reinforcing element VE connected, i.e. the hook element HE or the reinforcement element VE can be any exchanged or replaced.
- reinforcing element VE is essentially electronic processing of acoustic signals (see Arrow ES) made - after processing - to the Hook element HE (see arrow SS) or in one of them contained sound transmission channel UEK be passed.
- acoustic signals see Arrow ES
- Hook element HE see arrow SS
- Sound transmission channel UEK contained sound transmission channel
- the Invention is not limited to hearing aids consisting of two Parts, namely reinforcement element VE and hook element HE, consist. Rather, the invention is particularly suitable also for hearing aids that consist of only one housing part. In addition, the invention can be used both in ITE (in-the-ear) hearing aids as well as BTE (behind-the-ear) hearing aids be applied.
- the outer one Shape of the reinforcement element VE important: Especially in the transition area between Reinforcement element VE and hook element HE - again in with respect to the embodiment according to FIG. 1 - have this identical - but at least similar - contours and Surface textures. Overall, the whole shows hearing aid according to the invention no sharp edges, so no disturbing noises are generated.
- the hook element HE preferably does not contain any electronic components, but is especially for this there to record ambient sounds as smoothly as possible and - in the direction of arrow ES - into the reinforcement unit VE transfer.
- a cover element DE is in the hook element HE provided that the area of the sound inlet opening SE covering the outside environment, the cover element DE is integrated into the hook element HE in such a way that none Edges at the transition points between the hook element HE and the cover element DE are present, i.e. the cover element DE is integrated flush with the hook element HE.
- the cover element DE is against the outside spherical, but at least spherical sector-shaped. There are no edges on the hearing aid side that Can be sources of noise.
- the ones used for the cover elements DE Materials have a certain porosity, preferably one certain open porosity due to the two parameters Filter fineness and open porosity can be defined.
- the other material used according to one Embodiment according to the invention a homogeneous structure on.
- the following materials are particularly suitable for Connection with this invention: sintered polymer, Polyethylene, foam ceramic (also as a ceramic Called foam), foamed polyurethane, sintered Glass or sintered metal.
- the cover element is made of a homogeneous material.
- a Another embodiment of the invention proposes the outside of the cover element with a thin, to coat fine-pored layer.
- This layer exists preferably made of Teflon.
- the advantages of such a layer consist in that the chemical resistance increases is what the use of the hearing aids according to the invention strong external influences. While at water repelling in normal everyday use, Body sweat and body fat is necessary and required, is also a rejection of in special cases other chemical substances conceivable and also desirable.
- Fig. 2 shows, in perspective, that Cover element DE according to the invention for the hearing aid according to Fig. 1.
- An outward-facing surface can be seen AF and inward facing areas IF.
- the subdivision the area AF in three partial areas is only for one clear representation of the surface curvatures been and has no other meaning. The same applies to the four partial areas of the interior facing area IF.
- the cover element DE shown in FIG. 2 has good behavior with regard to the large volume Gradient effect. However, due to this Large volume restrictions regarding the acoustic impedance and in relation to the Structure-borne noise properties of the hearing aid. That can do that can be counteracted by the fine porosity is preferably chosen at 80 to 100 ⁇ m (d50 values).
- FIG. 3 shows - like FIG. 1 - a hearing aid according to the invention in longitudinal section, the same for the individual parts Reference numerals were used, as they were in the Hearing aid according to FIG. 1 were used.
- the cover element DE is at this embodiment rounded in the edge area.
- the recess in the hook element HE is accordingly Inclusion of the cover element DE of its outer shape been adjusted.
- This embodiment of the invention has the additional advantage of being a more compact and therefore more stable construction is achieved than with the Design variant according to FIG. 1.
- the cover element DE is namely now includes hook element HE in such a way that the freedom of movement of the cover element DE in radial Direction is restricted. For assembly and disassembly can cover element DE perpendicular to the section plane according to Fig. 3 are moved.
- Fig. 4 is the cover element DE, which in the hearing aid 3 can be used.
- the embodiment 4 is designed as a shell, i.e. the outward-facing areas remain unchanged, however, the volume of porous material is reduced.
- the filter fineness preferably chosen between 10 to 40 ⁇ m, the thickness the shell is at least 0.5mm.
- Fig. 5 is an embodiment of a Hearing aid shown in the two microphones M1 and M2 used to change the directional characteristic.
- the two microphones M1 and M2 arranged under the same cover element DE.
- the Cover element DE is designed and limited as a shell a room V, the sound inlet openings SE1 and SE2 has in the vicinity of each one of the microphones M1 and M2 are arranged.
- FIG. 6 shows an in-the-ear (ITE) hearing aid
- 6A is a cross section
- FIG. 6B is a cross section Top view is shown.
- 6A is again with DE referred to the cover element, with the help of which one Sound inlet opening SE is covered.
- a sound channel UEK can be seen through which the sound waves to be directed to a microphone M.
- Completeness for the sake of FIG. 6A there is also a battery BT and a Electronics-containing housing E is shown.
- 6B is the cover element DE recognizable that in this embodiment preferably as Ball sector is formed.
- the ITE embodiment according to FIG Compared to the hearing aids according to FIGS. 1 to 5 6 the ITE embodiment according to FIG a different arrangement of the individual hearing aid components. However, this does not detract from the principle according to the invention deviated.
- cover elements are also conceivable used to cover other ventilation openings will. This is the case, for example, when using zinc air Batteries to be noted that the air access ensures is.
- cover element preferably is integrated flush in the hearing aid housing.
