[Detailed description of the invention] This invention is an in-the-ear type hearing aid that is inserted into the ear canal and is used by intervening between the sound output part and the ear plug or earmold (ear-shaped ear plug). It provides a connecting member to be joined. Its main purpose is to provide earplugs,
It is possible to use both a soft earmold and a hard earmold.

The in-the-ear hearing aid is what is called a modular hearing aid. That is, a hearing aid is used by press-fitting and fixing a hearing aid into a recess formed in an earmold that is made to fit the ear shape of each hearing aid user.

Conventionally, this type of hearing aid has been inconvenient because only a hard earmold can be used because the hearing aid is held and fixed to the earmold. Furthermore, if a soft earmold with good wearing comfort is chosen, a means such as screwing the hearing aid and earmold together must be provided in order to compensate for its weak holding power. It takes time and effort to do so, and furthermore, it takes time and effort to separate the two parts during repair, which causes inconvenience. Furthermore, when using ear plugs, the protruding angle of the ear plug relative to the hearing aid is fixed, making it difficult for hearing aid users to wear the ear plugs along the curve of their own ear canal. In the first place, the degree of curvature of the human ear canal varies greatly, which is why it is important to have an earmold made to fit each person's ear shape.

In response to this, the present invention allows the use of not only a hard earmold but also a soft earmold by providing a fixed holding means, and the use of earplugs that can be worn according to the curvature of the ear canal of each hearing aid user. This is what makes it possible.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a hearing aid having a built-in amplification section, etc., and reference numeral 2 denotes a sound output section protruding from the hearing aid 1 at a certain angle, which is an outlet for amplified sound. The tip of the sound guide portion 2 is formed into a substantially spherical shape such as a spherical shape or a polyhedral shape. 3 is a connecting member in which a sound guide path 4 is formed in the axial direction of the center portion. The connecting member 3 has an internal spherical fitting part 6 on one end into which the substantially spherical part 5 of the sound guide part 2 fits, and an ear plug 7 and an earmold 8 on the other end as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. A joining end 9 having a large diameter is formed to perform the joining. Therefore, the connecting member 3 is rotatable relative to the substantially spherical portion 5.

As described above, by using the connecting member, even if it is a soft earmold, the connection and fixation with the hearing aid can be ensured by the connecting end of the connecting member. Furthermore, the presence of the connecting member prevents sound leakage, which is a contributing factor to howling. This eliminates the need for a tube. Furthermore, since the ear plug is a fitting between the fitting part and the substantially spherical part of the sound emitting part, the ear plug can be adjusted to a desired angle and can be comfortably worn by each hearing aid user. In this way, it is possible to actually use both hard and soft earmolds and earplugs, and the range of use has been significantly expanded.
