Abstract

Das Hörhilfegerät umfaßt im wesentlichen ein Mikrofon, einen ein- oder mehrstufigen Verstärker, wenigstens einen Lautstärke­ steller, einen oder mehrere Voreinsteller, einen Hörer und eine die Batterie aufnehmende Gehäusekammer. Für eine vorteilhafte Fertigung, für die kundendienstfreundliche Wartung, für eine variable Anpassung des Hörgerätes an bestimmte Leistungsstufen usw. zeichnet sich das Hörgerät nach der Erfindung dadurch aus, daß das Hörgerätegehäuse (9) aus mehreren, gegeneinander elek­ trisch und mechanisch lösbar befestigbaren Gehäusebausteinen (10, 11, 13, 14) besteht. The hearing aid essentially comprises a microphone, a single or multi-stage amplifier, at least one volume adjuster, one or more presets, one handset and one the battery receiving housing chamber. For an advantageous Manufacturing, for customer-friendly maintenance, for one variable adjustment of the hearing aid to certain performance levels etc., the hearing aid according to the invention is characterized in that that the hearing aid housing (9) from several, against each other elek tric and mechanically releasably attachable housing components (10, 11, 13, 14).
