Abstract

Ein Im-Ohr-Hörgerät (1) weist einen Hörgeräte-Ladeschaltkreis mit einem aufladbaren elektrischen Energiespeicher (3) auf. Das Im-Ohr-Hörgerät (1) ist in einen Ladebehälter einlegbar, der einen Ladeschaltkreis mit einer Primärspule aufweist. Die Primärspule ist mit einer Sekundärspule (11) eines Hörgeräte-Ladeschaltkreises für den Energiespeicher (3) induktiv verbunden. Die Sekundärspule (11) umgibt den Energiespeicher (3) als kernlose Spule.

An in-the-ear hearing aid (1) has a hearing aid charging circuit with a rechargeable electrical energy store (3). The in-the-ear hearing device (1) can be inserted into a charging container, which has a charging circuit with a primary coil. The primary coil is inductively connected to a secondary coil (11) of a hearing aid charging circuit for the energy store (3). The secondary coil (11) surrounds the energy store (3) as a coreless coil.
