In this embodiment, the control device 6 is electrically connected to the playing device 2, the acupoint stimulation device 3, the brain stimulation device 4 and the transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation device 5, and a control component (not shown) for controlling the operations of the acupoint stimulation medium 31, the brain stimulation medium 41 and the electrode patch 51 is disposed on the control device 6, and the control device 6 can be connected to a mains supply or powered by a battery, but in other embodiments, the control device 6 can also be wirelessly connected to the playing device 2, the acupoint stimulation device 3, the brain stimulation device 4 and the transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation device 5, and a control component for controlling the operations of the acupoint stimulation medium 31, the brain stimulation medium 41 and the electrode patch 51 is disposed on the wearing device 1, and the wearing device 1 can be connected to a mains supply or a battery for connecting the acupoint stimulation medium 31, the brain stimulation medium 4, the transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation device 5, The brain stimulation medium 41, the electrode patch 51 and the control components thereof supply power.

Referring to fig. 3 and 5, in use, the user wears the wearing device 1 on the head first, and then adjusts the wearing device 1 so that the acupoint stimulation media 31 are located at the acupoints P1-P8 of the user. In the adjustment process, the first support 12 can be adjusted to make the ear muffs 11 completely cover two ears, and the central portion 12a is located at the intersection where the two ear tips extend upwards, i.e. the Baihui point of the user, and then the positions of the second support 13, the third support 14 and the moving member 16 are adjusted to make the acupoint stimulation media 31 located on the second support 13 and the moving member 16 respectively located at the shenting point and the two Fengchi points of the user. In the adjusting process, the user or the person assisting in the adjustment can easily set the acupoint stimulating media 31 located on the second bracket 13 and the moving member 16 on the shenting acupoint and the fengchi acupoints on both sides through the positioning mark 18, wherein the acupoint stimulating media 31 corresponding to the ear are relatively dense due to the fact that the auricular door acupoint, the auspicious acupoint, the horny sun acupoint and the nebula acupoint located around the ear are relatively dense, and therefore, even if the acupoint stimulating media 31 located on the earmuff do not accurately correspond to the auricular door acupoint, the auspicious uterus acupoint, the horny sun acupoint and the nebula acupoint, the effectiveness of stimulation is not affected.

After the above steps are completed, the bent tube 17 is adjusted so that the brain stimulation medium 41 as the anode electrode is moved and positioned to the position between C3 and T5 in the international 10-20 system brain wave electrode position of the user's head, and the brain stimulation medium 41 as the cathode electrode is moved and positioned to the position between T4 and F8. Finally, the electrode patch 51 of the percutaneous electric stimulation device 5 is attached to the C2 nerve dermatome (shown in figure 5) at the head and neck of the user, and the wearing of the device is completed. After wearing, the control device 6 can be operated to simultaneously start and control the operations of the acupuncture point stimulation device 3, the brain stimulation device 4 and the transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation device 5, and the playing device 2 can play the music file to simultaneously perform diversified hearing training assistance.

Specifically, the user can select the first frequency (i.e., the carrier frequency in each music file) according to the hearing loss frequency (i.e., the frequency that is difficult to hear during hearing test), and play the music file corresponding to the hearing loss frequency, for example, in the frequency range (250-8000 Hz) that the user can hear in 40 db, the user cannot hear 7000Hz audio, i.e., 7000Hz is the frequency of hearing loss of the user, at this time, the user can select to play the first frequency (i.e., the carrier frequency) which is the frequency of 7000Hz, and repeatedly play the music file in decibels that the user can hear (up to 60 db), and gradually reduce the decibels, thereby achieving the hearing training effect. Because the beat frequency in each music file is gradually decreased to 10-15 Hz along with the time, the brain waves of the user can be sequentially induced to enter a low-frequency range, and the auditory processing blocks of the brain can be activated and adjusted, so that the auditory processing blocks of the brain can be activated during training, and a better training effect can be achieved.

The experiment proves that the beat frequency in the music file is gradually reduced to 10-15 Hz along with the time, the auditory cortex of a listener can be effectively stimulated, the experimental steps are briefly described as follows, and the step one is as follows: preparing a plurality of frequency-imitated music (binaural beats music) mixed with different beat frequencies, and a second step: please listen to general music without binaral beads and monaral beads for 1 minute in healthy subjects, then collect and analyze intracerebral neural activity using nmr imaging, then listen to frequency-emulated music for 1 minute in healthy subjects, then collect and analyze intracerebral neural activity also using nmr imaging, step three: the data of the neural activity in the brain established after listening to the frequency-simulated music and the general music of each subject are compared to establish the brain blocks corresponding to the music with different beat frequencies. FIG. 10 and FIG. 11 show the data of the magnetic resonance image of one of the subjects obtained after listening to the simulated music with a beat frequency of 10-15 Hz for 1 minute, wherein the portion enclosed by the circle R is the position of the auditory cortex and is seen to be significantly activated. In addition, functional neural connection activity induced by activation of auditory cortex simultaneously activates the visual cortex region (the portion enclosed by the circle G in fig. 11).

FIGS. 12 and 13 show the magnetic resonance image data obtained after two other subjects listen to the frequency-imitated music with a beat frequency of 10-15 Hz for 1 minute, wherein, from the cross-sectional image results, it can be observed that in different subjects, the frequency-imitated music with a beat frequency of 10-15 Hz produces strong signal response to the Auditory Cortex on the rear side, and according to the research literature of Human Auditory atlas (such as Mirror-symmetry Tonotic Maps in Human Primary Audio Cortex, published by Elia Formisano, et al), the Auditory Cortex on the rear side mainly deals with the high-frequency sound, and this part is the brain area that the average person degrades first and degrades fastest, that is, the music file of the present invention can be widely applied to the auxiliary training of the average hearing impaired users by mixing with a beat frequency of 10-15 Hz, and has remarkable effect on the active auditory processing block.

It should be noted that the acupuncture point stimulation device 3 irradiates the acupuncture points P1 to P8 with laser light to achieve the effect of imitating the conventional acupuncture, and the irradiated acupuncture points P1 to P8 are all related to the hearing function, so that the device can perform the training assistance for the hearing function. The brain stimulation device 4 can stimulate the auditory block of the brain of the user with direct current of 0-2.5 mA to achieve the effect of assisting in hearing training, and the magnitude of the direct current output by the brain stimulation device 4 is optimal with the assisting effect of 1.5-2 mA. Through the percutaneous nerve electrical stimulation device 5, the constant current with the pulse frequency of 1-200Hz and the intensity of 0-100 mA can be output to the C2 nerve skin area at the head and neck of a user, so that the auditory nerve at the position can be regulated, and the tinnitus phenomenon caused by the auditory nerve can be regulated.

In addition, the embodiment provides that the user listens to the music file and performs the acupuncture point stimulation and the cerebral auditory cortex stimulation simultaneously, so that better training effect can be achieved compared with the hearing training by listening to only one audio frequency, the acupuncture point stimulation and the cerebral auditory cortex stimulation.

In summary, the advantages of the present embodiment are summarized as follows;

1. the hearing training auxiliary equipment can provide a new hearing training mode different from the existing hearing training mode through the beat frequency characteristics of the music files, and can activate the auditory cortex of the brain of a user, particularly activate the auditory cortex corresponding to high-frequency sound, namely activate the brain area of a common person which is firstly degenerated and is most degenerated.

2. The embodiment can provide the user to listen to the music file at the same time, perform the acupuncture point stimulation and the cerebral auditory cortex stimulation, and achieve better training effect compared with the method of listening to a single audio frequency for hearing training, performing the acupuncture point stimulation and performing the cerebral auditory cortex stimulation.

3.
