Abstract

Es soll eine bessere Entkopplung der Mikrofone einer Hörvorrichtung von dem Gehäuse der Hörvorrichtung erreicht werden. Hierzu wird ein Mikrofonmodul mit einem Modulgehäuse (10), das nicht Teil des Gehäuses der Hörvorrichtung ist, und mindestens einem Mikrofon (11, 12) einschließlich Mikrofongehäuse, das in dem Modulgehäuse angeordnet ist, vorgeschlagen. Weiterhin besitzt das Mikrofonmodul eine Lagereinrichtung (19) zum elastischen Lagern des Modulgehäuses (10) in dem Gehäuse der Hörvorrichtung. Optional kann das Mikrofonmodul zusätzlich beispielsweise einen induktiven Empfänger aufweisen und/oder mit einer flexiblen Leiterplatte an die übrige Elektronik des Hörgeräts bzw. der Hörvorrichtung angeschlossen sein.

A better decoupling of the microphones of a hearing device from the housing of the hearing device is to be achieved. For this purpose, a microphone module with a module housing (10), which is not part of the housing of the hearing device, and at least one microphone (11, 12) including microphone housing, which is arranged in the module housing proposed. Furthermore, the microphone module has a bearing device (19) for elastically supporting the module housing (10) in the housing of the hearing device. Optionally, the microphone module can additionally have, for example, an inductive receiver and / or be connected with a flexible printed circuit board to the remaining electronics of the hearing device or the hearing device.
