Abstract

Hörgerät zum Tragen im Ohr oder im Ohrkanal, mit einer die Schallwandler und einen Verstärker aufnehmen­ den Ohrmulde und einer den Batterieraum und den Laut­ stärkesteller beinhaltenden Montageplatte, welche auf der Ohrmulde aufgesetzt und mit dieser lösbar verbunden ist. Um den Platzbedarf für die Verbindung der Montageplatte mit der Ohrmulde möglichst gering zu halten und die Anord­ nung der einzelnen Bauteile auf der Montageplatte beson­ ders günstig gestalten zu können, ist der umlaufende äuße­ re Rand (5) der Montageplatte (1) mit dem oberen Rand der Ohrmulde (6) durch am Umfang angeordnete lösbare Befe­ stigungsmittel verbunden. Hearing aid for wearing in the ear or in the ear canal, with one to accommodate the transducers and an amplifier the ear cup and one the battery compartment and the sound mounting plate containing strength plate, which on the Ear cup is attached and is detachably connected to this. To the space required for the connection of the mounting plate with the ear cup to keep it as low as possible and the arrangement of the individual components on the mounting plate to be able to make it cheap is the circumferential appearance right edge (5) of the mounting plate (1) with the upper edge of the Ear cup (6) by detachable attachments arranged on the circumference related funds.
