Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a battery-powered, user-friendly hearing aid that is simple in construction.
  • hearing aids In principle, hearing aids must be as small as possible. However, their development must also go in the direction of simplest operation, since their users are generally older people. However, the simple operation of such hearing aids means that even children, in particular, have easy access to the battery of such hearing aids. There is therefore a risk that children play with such batteries and swallow them, which can lead to great difficulties for the child and the hearing aid owner.
  • the present invention aims to create a battery-powered hearing aid which, in the assembled, ready-to-use state, makes easy access to the operating battery impossible, so that such hearing aids are inaccessible to the battery, in particular by small children.
  • such a hearing aid must be easy to use and still require optimal execution in terms of safety, operation, etc. This also includes the simple operation of the battery change, which, however, makes access to the battery in the installed state, especially by children, impossible.
  • Fig. 1 shows a part 1 of a hearing aid with a battery 3, which is inserted in a battery drawer 4.
  • the Battery drawer 4 has a bore 5, the pivot axis of which is designated 6.
  • the battery drawer 4 is covered together with the battery 3 by two housing halves 7 and 8.
  • the battery drawer 4 is provided with a conventional lock 9, which is actuated to pivot the battery drawer 4 out about the pivot axis 6 and allows access to the battery 3.
  • a partially open battery drawer 4 can be seen in FIG. 3.
  • FIG. 4 shows a battery drawer 4 with a partially cylindrical cavity for receiving the battery 3, which comes to rest on a battery support ring 10.
  • This support ring 10 has a safety lock recess 11 as well as a slot-shaped recess 19 and a holding groove 20 which, as explained later, serve to open the child safety device.
  • Fig. 5 shows a perspective view of the interior of the housing half 7 with a pivot pin 12 which engages in the bore 5 of the battery drawer 4 and a safety bolt 14 which can be inserted into a recess 15 and has a gripping groove 16, which bolt 14 belongs to a safety lock.
  • the securing bolt 14 can easily be used by a specialist if required and can also be removed again thanks to its gripping groove.
  • a window 18 of the housing half 7 is also shown.
  • Fig. 6 shows analogous to Fig. 3, but with the housing half raised 7, the almost closed, but not childproof condition of the battery drawer 4 (without battery). Since the battery drawer 4 must be elastically deformed with respect to its pivot axis 6, for example with a pressure in the direction of the arrow to slip over a locking pin 22, which corresponds to the securing bolt 14, a corresponding material is selected, or a corresponding bending point of the battery drawer 4 through a recess 19 in the battery support ring 10 set.
  • the blocking pin 22 can be elastically deformable.
  • FIG. 8 shows such a security lock, which can be opened with the aid of a screwdriver 25.
  • a guide groove 23 is provided between the closure 9 of the battery drawer 4, 30 and the wall housing half 8 or the wall housing half 7, or both, through which the front end of the screwdriver 25 reaches the interior of the battery drawer 4 in the manner shown and by moving in the direction of the arrow disengages the drawer securing part pivoting about the recess 19 into the position shown in FIG. 6.
  • the front end of the screwdriver 25 can be pushed into a holding groove 20 provided in the battery support ring 10. (Fig. 4)
  • the battery drawer 30 is closed in a ring.
  • This battery drawer 30 has instead of the cylindrical bore 5 of the battery drawer 4 on both sides an elongated hole recess 37 and 38, in each of which an axle holder 34 protrudes into the housing half 7 and 35 into the housing half 8 in the assembled state.
  • the two axle holders 34 and 35 serve to hold a bearing axle 31, which in turn is additionally mounted practically free of play in a drawer bearing 33.
  • the battery drawer 30 is provided with a bore 39 on both sides of the drawer bearing 33.
  • This embodiment allows the locking pin 22 to be slipped on when pressed in the direction of the arrow (FIG. 6) even if the battery drawer cannot be elastically deformed or if no bending point can act (as is shown in FIG. 9).
