Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method according to the preamble of claim 1, a pair of hearing aids according to that of claim 6 and hearing aids according to claim 11 and claim 12, respectively.
- Hearing loss affects both ears in many cases, so both should be supplied with a hearing aid.
- This so-called stereophonic or binaural supply with hearing aids is known.
- more modern hearing aids have transmission units between their microphone arrangement, usually with at least two microphones, and their output transducer arrangement, an arrangement with an electromechanical transducer, on which the acoustic signal is processed, which can be operated in switchable different transmission modes.
- the signal processing of the audio signals can take place in such a way that a relatively focused reception characteristic with respect to incoming audio signals results, in a second in such a way that a relatively undirected reception characteristic results, in a third, heavily noisy audio environment is taken into account, a fourth is particularly suitable for concert hall applications etc.
- Hearing aids are also known today which analyze the acoustic environment and automatically switch on optimal transmission modes in accordance with the analysis result for the recognized environment. If these devices are used binaurally, the two hearing aids are often switched to asynchronous mode because the two devices experience different audio environments, for example due to the acoustic head chatting. Taking into account how quickly the acoustic environment and the head position can change, this can irritate the user.
- the object of the present invention to propose a method of the type mentioned at the outset and a pair of hearing aids with associated hearing aids, by means of which the above-mentioned problems are solved, in particular no remote control is required, and hearing aids which automatically select the transmission mode can also be used in a binaural manner without problems.
- the method mentioned at the outset is characterized by the characterizing part of claim 1.
- a pair of hearing aids according to the invention is characterized according to the wording of claim 6, and individual hearing devices for this pair, correspondingly, according to the wording of claims 11 and 12.
- this synchronization can be created without remote control, for example by pressing a button on one of the hearing aids, or triggered automatically on the hearing aids according to predetermined criteria to be described, or as an additional option by remote control.
- the device is synchronized so that both hearing aids, once synchronized, work with the same active transmission modes. This can be done so that one hearing aid as a SLAVE device takes over the transmission mode of the other, the MASTER.
- Which of the two hearing aids acts as a MASTER can be preset, for example the right-ear device, but can also change depending on the situation, for example by declaring certain transmission modes to be dominant modes and determining the transmission mode of the other device during synchronization. For example, during the automatic operation of the mode activation, a hearing aid can be switched to a relatively rarely used mode, such as for concert hall applications, for example, while the second hearing aid operates in a standard mode. Then, during the synchronization, the hearing device with the relatively rarely used transmission mode is guided through the hearing device with the currently activated standard mode and takes over the latter.
- both hearing aids are switched to transmission modes that are used relatively rarely, such as one broadcasting in a concert hall, the other broadcasting in a noisy environment.
- the transmission modes are switched over to different transmission modes by synchronization.
- the mode constellation prevailing before the synchronization is characterized, for example, by two opposite modes, one for example for a concert hall environment and one for a very noisy environment, the synchronization can, for example, cause one device to the "slightly noisy environment" mode and the other to the standard mode
- this constellation is more adequately adapted from the initial configuration mentioned, in most cases.
- the synchronization itself can be triggered manually, either on one of the hearing aids or via remote control and / or by an analysis result of the current audio environment and / or by certain mode constellations, which experience has at least not recognized as optimal over a longer period of time.
- a pair of hearing aids according to the invention is distinguished by the wording of the characterizing part of claim 6.
- the fact that there is a wireless communication link between the hearing aids and only one control signal for the selection unit is transmitted from one hearing aid to the other makes binaural tuning of the hearing aids possible without complex audio processing signals having to be transmitted between the hearing aids, which in turn leads to a significantly increased total energy consumption.
- the transmission of some bits characterizing the respective carry and mode with a long repetition rate of a few seconds to several minutes is sufficient, which practically does not burden the power consumption.
- a short, mechanically highly stable transmission path is used between the user's ears. This also ensures high immunity to interference.
- FIG. 1 shows the basic principle of the present invention on the basis of a schematic illustration of a set of two hearing aids according to the invention.
- the two hearing aids 1 a and 1 b can each be switched to different transmission modes, with regard to their transmission behavior between the microphone arrangement 3a, 3b on the input side, via the respective signal processing units 5a and 5b to their electrical / mechanical output converter arrangements 7a and 7b.
- a transmission unit 9 with a transmission antenna 11 is provided on at least one of the two hearing aids 3a provided, for example implemented by an induction coil.
- a receiver unit 13 with a receiving antenna 15, again implemented for example by means of an induction coil, is provided.
- the transceivers 9 and 13 are preferably used for high frequency designed signal transmission, preferably in a frequency range of 100 kHz to 1 MHz.
- the transmission / reception path 9/13 of the two hearing aids la, lb are, as will be described later, by manual intervention and / or by automatic triggering, the transmission modes of the two hearing aids are coordinated with one another, ie synchronized. Basically, only transmission mode identifying identifiers are transmitted for this purpose, for which a few bits with low repetition rates are sufficient.
- the transmitting hearing aid 3a transmits the identifier M ,, of the transmission mode M currently active on it to the receiving hearing aid 3b, the latter now changing its own transmission mode to the mode M. switches.
- one of the hearing aids provided, 3a acts as a MASTER and the hearing aid 3b as a SLAVE hearing aid, which takes over the transmission mode of the MASTER hearing aid.
- the mode synchronization according to the invention - in a further development - can also be carried out in such a way that both hearing aids are probably synchronized to the same transmission mode, which is, however, not the same as one of the modes activated at the moment the synchronization takes place.
- the synchronization itself can be triggered manually, either directly on one of the two hearing aids or via a remote control provided for the hearing aids, or it can take place automatically, at predetermined time intervals and / or when experience has shown that the mode configurations on the two hearing aids are unfavorable and / or certain Audio environments or their changes.
- FIG. 2 shows a functional block / signal flow diagram of one of two identically constructed hearing aids according to the invention of a pair of hearing aids according to the invention.
- function blocks are also designated with the same position numbers in FIG. 2.
- the microphone arrangement 3 acts on the converter unit 7 via the signal processing unit 5. At least two, preferably several transmission modes M lf M 2 ... M x can be selected on the signal processing unit 5 by a selection unit 20.
- Which of the transmission modes M is currently activated is entered manually on the selection unit 20, as shown at S 20 , for example wirelessly using a toggle switch on the hearing aid or via its remote control. As shown in dashed lines, however, the transmission mode M which is optimal for the prevailing audio environment can be selected on the hearing aid itself based on the currently prevailing audio environment, via an evaluation unit 23 and the selection unit 20.
- the selection unit 20 is assigned an identifier storage unit 25, in which the identifier M ⁇ of the currently activated transmission mode M is stored in each case.
- the identification memory unit 25 is operatively connected to a transceiver control unit 27, the latter to a transceiver unit 29. If a second, preferably identical, hearing aid shown in FIG. 2 is to be synchronized, assuming that that is the MASTER hearing aid shown in FIG. 2, the send / receive control unit 27 is triggered - as shown in S 27 - and transmits the in the identifier storage unit 25 stored mode identifier M x via the transmitting / receiving unit 29, now acting as a transmitting unit - O -, to the other hearing aid.
- the other hearing aid receives this identifier M ⁇ , its transmit / receive control unit 27 stores it in the identifier storage unit 25 there, by means of which — as shown with the bidirectional path S 01 — the selection unit 20 is set in accordance with the received mode identifier.
- the receiving hearing aid - the SLAVE device - now works on the same transmission mode K as the sending hearing aid, the MASTER hearing aid.
- the synchronization process can be triggered manually on S 27 , as mentioned, or automatically. If, on the basis of an assessment of the current audio environment with the evaluation unit 23, a change of mode takes place automatically via the selection unit 20 on the hearing aid under consideration, synchronization can be triggered automatically simultaneously or at a given time interval via the control input S 27 , as shown in dashed lines in FIG. 2 is shown. Of course, it is also possible (not shown) to apply the synchronization-triggering signal at input S 27 to the MASTER hearing aid by means of a timer, controlled at predetermined time intervals.
- a timer unit 37 is connected to the transmitting / receiving unit 27, which, activated only on one device, sends the currently activated transmission mode M Sm from the number plate memory 25 activated on this device to the other device at predetermined time intervals.
- the MASTER On the other hearing aid, the MASTER, however, a table storage unit 39 is activated, as schematized with the switches W.
- the mode feature M Sm sent by the SLAVE device on the basis of the transmission clock by the timer unit 37 is stored in the table storage unit 39, as is the identifier M ⁇ of the currently activated on the considered MASTER device
- a table stored in the table storage unit 39 becomes the current constellation M ⁇ . / M Sm read out the optimal constellation M ' M / M' s , M ' M connected to the selection input S 20 , M' s sent to the SLAVE device for transfer to the label memory 25 and activation of the corresponding mode.
- synchronization can also occur automatically through the occurrence of predetermined constellations of modes. be triggered table, in addition to or instead of the automatic triggering by audio environment assessment, as was described with reference to FIG. 2 or manual triggering.
- the constellation M ⁇ 4
- both devices are configured to be of equal value, it can be specified, based on the stored constellations M ⁇ , M Sm , which device or which mode of the constellation is dominant, and then, at the moment, the MASTER / SLAVE function automatically be constellated. For example, it can be determined that mode 2 dominates all other 1, 3, 4, while 3 dominates modes 1 and 4. The device that is currently working with the dominant mode maintains its mode or takes over the MASTER configuration described with reference to FIG. 3.
- the result of the audio environment evaluation can be used as a further parameter, in addition to the current constellation M ⁇ / M Sm or possibly instead of this constellation, the constellation to be created during synchronization M 'M, M' s set. Either this gives the table in table memory 39 a further dimension, or the characteristic of the audio environment assessment occurs in the table instead of the instantaneous constellation M ⁇ / M Sm .
- the procedure according to the invention it is possible to optimally guide the binaural hearing aids to one another while using only minimal additional electrical energy for the mode identification transmission at relatively large time intervals.
- the user can always create the syn- Break through chronization manually, in particular also via remote control, whereby synchronization can be created again or created again according to the principles explained according to the invention, with the user being able to deactivate this process in the case of automatic recovery.
