Abstract

Bei einem Mikrofon (1, 13) mit einem Mikrofongehäuse (2, 14) zur Anordnung in einem hinter dem Ohr tragbaren Hörgerät (8) mit einem Hörgerätegehäuse (9) sind an zwei gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Mikrofongehäuses (2, 14) je ein Schalleintrittsstutzen (3, 4, 15, 16, 17, 18) mit einer Schalleintrittsöffnung (3A, 4A, 19, 20, 21, 22) angeordnet. Die Schalleintrittsstutzen (3, 4, 15, 16, 17, 18) münden in eine Kammer (25, 26) auf einer Seite der Mikrofonmembran (23), wobei die Schalleintrittsstutzen (3, 4, 15, 16, 17, 18) in je eine Schalleintrittsöffnung (11, 12) in gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Hörgerätegehäuses (9) eingeführt sind und wobei bei getragenem Hörgerät (8) zumindest näherungsweise die Schalleintrittsöffnung (3A) des einen Schalleintrittsstutzens (3) distal und die Schalleintrittsöffnung (4A) des anderen Schalleintrittsstutzens (4) proximal zum Kopf angeordnet ist. Das so ausgebildete Mikrofon (1, 13) ist platzsparend und einfach im Hörgerät (9) anzuordnen.
