Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hearing aid device system having a first and a second on or in the ear of a user portable hearing aid, each having an input transducer for receiving an input signal and conversion to an electrical input signal, a signal processing unit for processing and amplification of the electrical input signal and output of an electrical output signal and an output transducer for converting the electrical output signal into an audible by the user as an audible signal output signal, wherein the hearing aid system further comprises means for wireless signal transmission between the hearing aids.
  • the invention relates to a method for operating such a hearing aid device system.
  • a hearing aid with a reed contact known by a magnetic field of a certain field strength is detected in close proximity to the hearing aid. This is used to detect if the hearing aid is in close proximity to a telephone handset emitting a magnetic field. As a result, the operating mode "telephoning" can be set automatically for the relevant hearing aid device.
  • the publication US2005 / 0117764 relates to a hearing aid device for automatically switching to a telephone operation with a first hearing aid including a first recording device for receiving a first input signal and a second hearing aid including a second recording device for receiving a second input signal.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide a simple to implement and reliable automatic shutdown of the devices in a hearing aid device system of the type mentioned.
  • This object is achieved by a hearing aid device system having the features according to claim 1. Furthermore, this object is achieved by a method with the method steps according to claim 5.
  • an input signal is recorded by means of an input transducer and converted into an electrical input signal.
  • an input transducer usually serves as an input transducer at least one microphone which receives an acoustic input signal and an electrical input signal converts.
  • Modern hearing aids often comprise a microphone system with a plurality of microphones in order to achieve a direction dependent on the direction of arrival of acoustic signals reception, a directional characteristic.
  • telephone coils or antennas for receiving electromagnetic input signals and conversion to electrical input signals are also common as input transducers.
  • the input signals converted by the input transducer into electrical input signals are fed to a signal processing unit for further processing and amplification.
  • the further processing and amplification takes place to compensate for the individual hearing loss of a user usually in response to the signal frequency of the input signal.
  • the signal processing unit supplies at its output an electrical output signal, which is supplied via an output transducer to the hearing of the hearing aid wearer, so that the latter perceives the output signal as an acoustic signal.
  • output transducer conventionally earphones are used, which generate an acoustic output signal.
  • output transducers for generating mechanical vibrations are also known, which directly excite certain parts of the ear, such as the ossicles, to vibrate.
  • output transducers are known which directly stimulate neurons of the ear.
  • a hearing aid further comprises a voltage source (battery or rechargeable battery) for powering the electronic components.
  • controls on / off switch, program switch, volume control, etc. may be present.
  • each hearing aid device of the hearing aid device system comprises a signal transmission and control device, by means of which data and control signals can be transmitted between the hearing aid devices. This allows the signal processing of the two hearing aids are matched.
  • the hearing aids according to the invention each comprise a sensor device, by the magnetic fields in which the hearing aids are located and a specific Field strength exceed, can be detected.
  • the sensor devices are designed in a particularly simple manner as reed contacts.
  • other magnetic field sensors eg Hall sensors, come into consideration.
  • the sensitivity of the sensors is dimensioned so that only a magnetic field is detected when the sensor is in close proximity to the magnetic field generating magnet. As a result, only the hearing aid is automatically switched to the phone mode that supplies the ear to which the phone is held. The hearing aid that supplies the other ear, however, is not immediately switched automatically in the phone mode.
  • a sensor device for detecting an external magnetic field If it is e.g. in a storage box for the hearing aid in question, a permanent magnet, so it can be determined here by a corresponding sensor device that the hearing aid is in the storage box, so that the hearing aid is automatically turned off. Furthermore, it is possible that even when switched off, the sensor device remains active, whereby an automatic restart of the hearing aid in question after removal from the storage box is made possible. The power consumption of the sensor device in the off state is very low and can therefore be neglected.
  • the sensor device when detecting an external magnetic field, the sensor device can not recognize which of the two situations mentioned above exists.
  • a wireless signal transmission between the two hearing aids by a wireless signal transmission between the two hearing aids.
  • at least one of the hearing aid devices transmits the information as to whether an external magnetic field is detected to the other hearing aid device.
  • the magnetic field is only produced by this hearing aid device, but not by the hearing aid device worn in or on the other ear of the user due to the distance between the two hearing aids recognized. It is thus established that the listening situation "telephoning" is present and to which of the two hearing aids the telephone handset is held.
  • both hearing aids detect a relatively strong magnetic field in their immediate surroundings, this is an indication that the hearing aids are in the storage box and can be switched off.
  • the invention can be applied to all common types of hearing aid devices, such as behind the ear portable hearing aids (BTE), in the ear portable hearing aids (IDO) etc ..
  • BTE behind the ear portable hearing aids
  • IDO in the ear portable hearing aids
  • FIG. 1 shows a hearing aid system with a first on the head of a user portable hearing aid 1 and a
  • the hearing aids 1 and 11 each include a microphone 2 and 12 for receiving an acoustic input signal and conversion into an electrical input signal.
  • a signal processing unit 3 or 13 is used for processing and frequency-dependent amplification of the electrical input signal.
  • the electrical output signal generated by the signal processing unit 3 or 13 is converted by an earphone 4 or 14 into an acoustic output signal and supplied to the ear of a user.
  • the signal processing in the signal processing units 3 and 13 can be adapted to different listening environments by setting a plurality of parameters. There are, for example, hearing programs or operating modes "speech at rest", “speech in noise", "telephoning" etc.
  • the adjustment of the parameters of the individual hearing programs and the settings for individual compensation of the hearing loss of a user by means of signal transmission and control units 5 and 15, to which the transmitting and receiving coils 7 and 17 are connected for wireless data transmission, in conjunction with an external programming device (not shown). Furthermore, the status of reed contacts 6 and 16 can be interrogated by the signal transmission and control units 5 and 15, respectively. Are the reed contacts 6 and 16 in the immediate vicinity of a magnetic field whose field strength exceeds a certain threshold, so close the reed contacts 6 and 16. From this recognizes the corresponding hearing aid in a simple manner, whether it is in the immediate Proximity to a magnet is located.
  • both hearing aids 1 and 11 automatically switch off.
  • a residual power supply is maintained in the off state, by the condition of the reed contacts 6 and 16 can still be queried.
  • the hearing aids detect 1 and 11 when they are removed from the storage box.
  • an automatic restart of the hearing aid 1 and 11 can be realized. Manually operated on-off switches are unnecessary.
  • the voltage sources 8 and 18 for powering the hearing aids 1 and 11 are preferably rechargeable and the storage box for the hearing aids 1 and 11 is advantageously also designed as a charger for the voltage sources 8 and 18.
  • the hearing aids 1 and 11 are not only automatically switched off when stored in the storage box, but also recharged beyond.
  • FIG. 2 shows a flowchart for the automatic detection of the hearing situation "telephoning" and for automatically switching off two hearing aids of a hearing aid device system according to the invention.
  • a hearing aid device of a hearing aid device system concerned permanently or cyclically monitors the presence of an external magnetic field. As long as no magnetic field is detected, the hearing aid is in "normal operation". If a magnetic field is detected, this information is transmitted to the second hearing aid device in the hearing aid system. In addition, the hearing aid checks whether the other hearing aid of the hearing aid system sends the information that it is in a magnetic field.
  • the signal processing unit of the hearing aid device is transferred to a telephone mode, in which parameters for controlling the signal processing are specially adapted to the hearing situation "telephoning".
  • an information signal is transmitted to the second hearing aid device, from which it appears that the first hearing aid device is in the operating mode "Telephoning". If appropriate, the second hearing aid device can then also be converted into an operating mode adapted to this operating mode.
  • both hearing aids are in a magnetic field at the same time, this is an indication that the hearing aids are in a storage box equipped with at least one permanent magnet.
  • the hearing aids are then transferred to a shutdown, in which the hearing aids are largely switched off and only a residual power supply for the sensor device is maintained.
  • the hearing aid in question recognizes that it has been removed again from the storage box. It then switches itself on instantly.
  • the hearing aids detect in a simple manner both whether they are in the storage box and whether the hearing situation "telephoning" is present.
  • each hearing aid device only a single magnetic field sensor is required for this distinction.
